Re: Snowkiting School/Instruction Locations
To be honest, I don't really think you need lessons to snowkite, depending on what type of kites you choose to fly, etc.
Have you got a trainer kite yet? That's the first thing you need. I'd recommend a 3m or so. I'm not sure what you have for local shops in your area. The best thing you can do to prepare for snowkiting is to get a trainer and spend as many hours flying it as you possibly can. This one is a nice option for a pretty great price and its sort of a local shop for you (NH):

A 3 or 4 line kite is nice to learn with because you can "reverse launch" it without assistance. If you have any shop in driving distance I would highly recommend supporting your local shop because they'll be your #1 resource while you are getting started. A lot of shops will give you an hour or so lesson on setting up the kite if you buy a new kite from them.
