TOWNSHEND, VERMONT AND SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES
SPECIAL EVENTS
“No man is an island,” said poet, John Donne in the 1600’s. The same may be said for small communities. We all rely on each other and we all help each other when the need arises. There are many special events that happen in Townshend and our neighboring communities. These range from fund raising events for local fire departments to simple community events like the Townshend Pumpkin Festival. On the various town commons, in the streets, at scattered locations, the communities are host to a wide variety of happenings that really serve us all, as well as our visitors. Yes, we do “cross borders” quite often and that is because we are all neighbors. That is what makes life special in these parts.
Our surrounding communities are Newfane, Jamaica, Brookline, Athens, Grafton, Windham, and Wardsboro.
Anyone in those communities who has a non-commercial, annual, special event, please make contact via email. Will be happy to post those as well.
