THE CARING YOUTH at St. Paul’s Episcopal Chuch in Vergennes, with guidance from Deacon Lucy Pellegrini, wrote personal fundraising letters to their congregation. This resulted in $1100 in cash and $400 worth of food gifts to feed children who would not otherwise receive breakfast or lunch during the holiday break. They shopped and filled over 65 bags, which were delivered to families throughout northern Addison County. They wanted to give to their peers in the community and succeeded beyond their expectations. Any excess items were donated to the Vergennes Food Shelf. Photo courtesy of Madelaine Calise
SISTERS ELIZA, LEFT, and Emma Doucet of Starksboro share a candle at the Memorial Bandstand on the Bristol town green last Thursday, Jan. 27, during Bristol’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day commemoration, which they organize. Around 50 people came to Holley Hall to see posters telling stories of some victims of the Nazi killing of Jews in World War II. About 70 gathered on the park to light candles and listen to speaches by Shelburne’s Tom Glazer, whose parents survived the death camps, and Vermont Senate Pro-Tempore Becca Balint, as well as the Doucet twins.

After a dozen years of publishing Vermont Sports M
After a dozen years of publishing Vermont Sports Magazine, Addison Press Inc. has sold the publication and its digital properties to Adirondack Sports & Fitness LLC of Clifton Park, N.Y.

Adirondack Sports & Fitness, owned by Darryl and Mona Caron, publishes Upstate Sports (formerly Adirondack Sports) magazine monthly, and hosts two large outdoor recreational sports and travel shows — the Summer Expo in March and the Winter Expo in October — in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. The company has been around for 26 years.

“We’re happy Vermont Sports will continue to thrive under this new leadership,” said former owner and co-publisher Angelo Lynn. “It’s a good marriage to join the recreational activities of upstate New York with those of Vermont and New England.”

A free chamber music concert in a wine bar sounds
A free chamber music concert in a wine bar sounds pretty nice, right?

The performance is part of the Vergennes Opera House’s “Off Stage” Series, which features performances in venues around Vergennes while the opera house is under construction.

Happy New Year! Crowds went to the Rec Park in Mid
Happy New Year! Crowds went to the Rec Park in Middlebury on Wednesday evening to watch the New Year’s Eve fireworks ring in 2026; but because they were launched high above the shire town, there were plenty of good vantage points from which to enjoy the fiery blossoms, including this spot on Main Street’s Battell Bridge.

Whether he’s got a pencil or a musical instrument
Whether he’s got a pencil or a musical instrument in hand, Reagh Greenleaf Jr. likes to blend the old with the new through the art that he creates. Greenleaf is the artist behind RambleTree, a Celtic art and apparel business based in Bristol. The brand shares a name with the Irish-Americana jam band Greenleaf co-founded in 2014, which also draws from Celtic material along with other inspirations. 

The two ventures are distinct but connected, and both allow Greenleaf to blend his work as an artist and musician with his interests in his Irish heritage and Celtic art and music. Through both endeavors, he looks to bring something new to the musical and artistic traditions he’s been inspired by.
