This year, the Vermont Properties Team successfully collected an abundant supply of jackets and winter coats to support the local community in need. All the donated jackets will be distributed to the Black River Good Neighbor Services, a prominent nonprofit organization dedicated to providing essential resources and support to individuals and families in the area. The Black River Good Neighbor Services has been a pillar of support for the Okemo Valley community for many years. Through its various programs and services, this esteemed organization strives to address issues related to food security, clothing, household items, and more. They remain committed to their mission of helping those in need, and the donated jackets from the 2023 Coat Drive will significantly aid them in fulfilling their objectives. Thank you to the community members who generously donated jackets. We hope this contribution will provide much-needed warmth and comfort to individuals and families facing challenging circumstances during the colder months.

Cash strapped from his American tour, Dickens thought this was a good way to raise money for his growing family, and besides it was the right time of year for a good ghost story. Dickens didn't make much money from the sale of his book-the binding was very expensive-but he left the world a richer place, with an endearing yearly tradition. Given the events of the last five months, following the July floods, his messages of charity and hope are quite appropriate. In keeping with the spirit of this famous tale, the Cavendish Historical Society is hosting a Dickens' Christmas Carol Open Studio on December 17, Sunday, at the former Crows Corner Bakery, 73 Depot St. in Proctorsville from 3-5:30. It will feature a variety of workshops, including wreath and ornament making, and hot chocolate tasting. This event is free and open to the public. It's been made possible from a grant from the Cavendish Community Fund and with the support of the new owners of Crow's.
