New England

 

New England (the American states of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island) together with the adjacent states of New York and Pennsylvania became a major centre of interest in sled dogs and dogsled sport in the late 1920s and has remained so ever since. The combined influence of Leonhard Seppala and Arthur Walden gave the sport a high profile initially, boosted by the addition of dogsled racing as a demonstration sport at the 1939 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, New York.

As a description of the combined states, this seems adequate unless you want to say something about their accents. ;-) Or throw in more links to specific things like the Poland Springs races, individual kennels, whatever. But links only, I'd think, not necessarily more info about New England.
