Winooski River Cleanup
Saturday Sep 7th 8:30 am to 12:00 pm @ City Hall, 39 Main St, Montpelier
September is Vermont River Clean-up Month, and Friends of the Winooski has been pulling trash from the rivers at several sites in and around Montpelier for 25 years. We would love your help! The reasons we clean up in September are because the water level is usually fairly low, and the water temperature is about as warm as it gets. These factors help our volunteers be safer and more comfortable in the river. We use canoes to collect garbage from the river. Please come prepared to get dirty! Wear appropriate clothing, including shoes that can be worn in the river; bring a snack and water, gloves are recommended, and protection from sun or rain. Note that the river access spots and river beds can be steep, extremely slippery, rocky, and uneven. Volunteers under 18 need signed permission forms: see website for more info.

Is the Winooski River healthy? Can we swim in it? Is it okay to catch and eat the fish?

We’ll touch on Montpelier’s place in the Winooski watershed, what happens when it rains in the city, what homeowners can do to help, and what it all means for our relationship with and enjoyment of our local river resources.

McBride—a poet and the author of the young adult novel, Me (Moth)—will reflect on how she uses her writing process to tackle the themes of loss, trauma, race, and healing through poetry. This event is free and will be available online. Following the free program, the Kellogg-Hubbard Library will host a meet-and-greet reception with Amber McBride! Join us at the library for a Q&A with the author, plus delectable desserts from local bakeries, wine courtesy of Calmont Beverage, and coffee and tea. Tickets are $60 per person. All proceeds benefit the Kellogg-Hubbard Library. RSVP at kellogghubbard.org/McBride for the free event, livestream access, and VIP tickets!

Montpelier Fall Festival
Saturday Sep 28th 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm @ Statehouse Lawn
The Montpelier Fall Festival is a celebration of all that is good about our Montpelier and Roxbury communities. MRPS Partners in Education (MRPS PIE) have partnered with Montpelier Alive to create this magical, fun(d)raising community event to support our school community. Funded in part by a grant award from Montpelier Alive, our big goal is to raise $15,000 and distribute it among the four schools’ parent/caregiver organizations. This is our largest opportunity of the year, and it has grown to be a local favorite. These funds support interactive, real-life experiences outside of our school community that deeply connect to learning; internships, athletics, author/artist residencies, community service, and dozens of other amazing opportunities at all four schools. More importantly, the funds level the playing field for families that may not be able to afford to participate.
