DUXBURY, VERMONT is celebrating its 250th Anniversary. Duxbury
is a quiet town of pristine hills and an iconic mountain linking
the foodie mecca of Waterbury and the world-class ski destination
of the Mad River Valley. The friendly residents of Duxbury invite
people from throughout Vermont and beyond to celebrate with them
in 2013.
You've probably hiked up to Camel's
Hump, attended a musical or sports event at Harwood High School,
or stayed at one of our B&Bs and perhaps didn't even realize
you were in Duxbury. With a population of about 1200, Duxbury
is home to generations of families as well as to newcomers. It's
a place rich with traditions and warm hearts. It's a community
where neighbors take care of neighbors, and where moose and bear
run freely. Duxbury is a magical place where wildlife and man
share in nature's beauty.
Make plans to join us for the opening ceremony and community
picnic, the Duxbury Fun Run, the B&B Tour, the Waterbury
Independence Day Parade, the Vermont Philharmonic Pops concert
and then hike up to Camel's Hump.
On February 14th at the Vermont
State House, a resolution announcing Duxbury's 250th Anniversary
was read and approved by the Vermont House of Representatives.
In attendance (from left to right were: Greg Trulson, Willie
Docto, Rep. Maxine Grad, Stephanie Koonz (Chair of the Duxbury
250 Committee), Mame McKee, Eulie Costello, Kim Greenwood, Don
Welch (President of the Duxbury Historical Society) and Mary
Welch. Rep. Adam Grishan (not pictured) was also present. Click
