SUMMARY:Community WEEK!
DESCRIPTION:In 2024\, we helped to pull together a Stratford Park Clean-Up Day on the afternoon of June 29th.  A dozen hardy volunteers tackled community improvement projects in the rain that day\, and gathered at DeBanville’s afterwards for a slice of pizza\, drinks and live music to celebrate.  We accomplished the following together at the Back Street River Park in the north of town: \n\nBrush clean-up alongside the river\nBuilt two new benches to replace old ones by the basketball court\nCleaned out & repainted the ballfield dugouts\nStained the River Launch sign\n\nThis year we are planning round two and calling it a Community Day! (Now called Community Week and extended to work around weather.) Here’s what’s in store for projects: \n\n\nStratford Public School Community Clean-Up projects- rescheduled to Tuesday May 27\, 1-3 PM (due to poor weather) \n\nReviving school garden beds\, led by school staff\, with younger grades.\nLitter pickup for older students.\nRepainting school dugouts.\n\nProjects to take place all week\, starting Saturday\, May 24th\, 2025 at 9 AM (please sign up to be connected with a project leader by emailing britni@thecbh.org)  Thank you leaders! \n\nPainting benches led by Molly Carr\nPavilion clean up led by Sarah Kennett\nStaining benches & picnic tables led by Suzanne Goulet\nFlower planter cleanup led by Jamie Davis\nBrush clean-up along the edge of the park (contact town office)\n\nWe are going to kick off this Community Week on 5/24 at 5 PM\, by enjoying live music at DeBanville’s in Bloomfield\, VT!  At the end of the week\, all volunteers that helped out are invited to a pizza party at 5 PM on 5/30\, sponsored by DeBanville’s.  We thank them for their partnership & support on this effort\, as well as the Stratford Public School and Stratford Town Office.   \n\n\nTogether we can do so much to beautify Stratford!  We love to have fun and get stuff done!  If you are interested in volunteering for a project\, please contact Britni Haley at britni@thecbh.org or 802-277-1974.  Feel free to send a text.  See Facebook Event for updates.

SUMMARY:Children’s Playgroup in Stratford
DESCRIPTION:All are welcome to join this fun\, free program on Friday mornings!\nIn talking to community members at events\, parents and caregivers often expressed an interest in having more activities for children 5 & under. The library staff and trustees were more than happy to let us use their recently renovated children’s room for a weekly program and the town gladly offered up use of the pavilion next door\, as well as the park. \nIt’s a great opportunity for both adults and children to socialize and enjoy some fun activities. Mornings start in the library with playtime\, snacktime (bring your own snack) and storytime\, then transitions to active play outdoors.  Inside supplies are available for coloring\, as well as a selection of toys\, and an outdoor bin of toys/sports equipment is positioned at the basketball court for the public to use.  Kids love bringing their bikes to ride on the basketball court\, and we have bubbles\, balls to kick around and lots of fun to be had. Participants are co-designing programs and ideas are always welcome. \nThrough this simple idea to fill an identified need by gathering at an underutilized space at a set time each week\, more people are getting involved and connected in their community. We started the playgroup in September 2023 and it is now a volunteer-led program.  Drop in on a Friday at 9:30 a.m. to gather with little ones! \nLearn more on Facebook at Stratford Children’s Playgroup.

SUMMARY:Summer Picnic & Play Series! #1
DESCRIPTION:We are teaming up with the Family Resource Center to host a series of three “Picnic & Play” meet-ups on Fridays at parks in the North Country this summer.  After listening to what families we were looking for\, we came up with fun offerings at three different locations that will help bring people together and take advantage of our town’s assets.  We will be offering free peanut butter & jelly sandwiches\, applesauce\, and cold bottled water for families to enjoy a picnic together\, paired with fun things to do. \nFirst up in Stratford on June 28\, we will get together at the Pavilion on the Common\, next to the Stratford Public Library.  People can sit to enjoy lunch at the picnic tables in the shade\, and the kids can even sing & dance on the stage there if they’d like!  When folks are ready we’ll head on down to the Back Street River Park to play with soccer balls\, basketballs\, bubbles & families can bring bikes or scooters to ride around on the court. \nWe hope that these opportunities to gather will increase social connections in our communities\, open up eyes to the wonderful places we have in our towns\, and provide fun ways for families to enjoy time together this summer.

SUMMARY:Children’s Playgroup in Stratford
DESCRIPTION:All are welcome to join this fun\, free program on Friday mornings!\nIn talking to community members at events\, parents and caregivers often expressed an interest in having more activities for children 5 & under. The library staff and trustees were more than happy to let us use their recently renovated children’s room for a weekly program and the town gladly offered up use of the pavilion next door\, as well as the park. \nIt’s a great opportunity for both adults and children to socialize and enjoy some fun activities. Mornings start in the library with playtime\, snacktime (bring your own snack) and storytime\, then transitions to active play outdoors.  Inside supplies are available for coloring\, as well as a selection of toys\, and an outdoor bin of toys/sports equipment is positioned at the basketball court for the public to use.  Kids love bringing their bikes to ride on the basketball court\, and we have bubbles\, balls to kick around and lots of fun to be had. Participants are co-designing programs and ideas are always welcome. \nThrough this simple idea to fill an identified need by gathering at an underutilized space at a set time each week\, more people are getting involved and connected in their community. We started the playgroup in September 2023 and it is now a volunteer-led program.  Drop in on a Friday at 9:30 a.m. to gather with little ones! \nLearn more on Facebook at Stratford Children’s Playgroup.
