We are especially grateful to the Kelley family and their crew for cooking up a great barbecue, the Jeb Porter and Friends band, and to Cota and Cota for providing the grill. Our member Don Eatmon always comes through setting up a great parade. Without the ongoing support for the barbecue and community suppers we could not keep the Odd Fellows Hall open and available. | | |

Henry was recently honored as the 2023 Vermont Music Educator of the Year.

There's his sweet and strong voice, that intricate and flawless guitar work, and songs so rich and sweeping you'll wish you wrote them yourself".
