Östersund is known in Sweden as the "winter city" and with that comes a love for winter sports.  That love has been taken to the next level as The Swedish Winter Sports Research Center is here.  This is a state of the art facility devoted to collecting data for developing the best techniques and equipment for athletes to have that edge in competition.

The afternoon took us to a small factory where designs are printed on fabrics and to Frösö church

In the evening we went to city hall where we learned about the municipality.  We then gave our second presentation of the day to an evening Rotary club.
