12th Annual Gathering
We invite you to join us for our 12th Annual Gathering at the Montgomery Town Hall starting at 6 PM on Thursday October 16th. This event is an opportunity to enjoy a delicious catered dinner provided by Cafe Oma, visit with fellow supporters and CHC Board members, bid on local goods and experiences in a raffle fundraiser, browse new CHC merchandise for sale, and listen to our guest speaker.
This year, we welcome Lou Bushey, Stewardship Forester with the State Lands Division of Vermont Dept of Forests, Parks and Recreation. He will be joined by Team Members from the Department for a discussion that will focus on the planning process for the Jay State Forest, with opportunity for live Q&A and feedback.
Please pre-register online. $25 per person suggested donation.
