FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 1950
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 1950 took place during February 1-6, 1950 in Lake Placid, New York, USA. This was the American city's second time hosting the championships after having done so at the 1932 Winter Olympics. It also marked the first time after World War II the event took place after the Winter Olympics in a non-Olympic year (St. Moritz, Switzerland hosted the 1948 Winter Olympics two years earlier), the second time the world championships occurred outside of Europe, the first time they had occurred outside of Europe in a non-Olympic year, and the only time the United States has hosted the event in a non-Olympic year.
