CELEBRATE STODDARD 250 NEWSLETTER #1
First Newsletter
December 8, 2023
Welcome!
Thank you for signing up for the Celebrate Stoddard 250 newsletter. A group
of volunteers have organized many activities, happening throughout the year, to
commemorate the town’s founding 250 years ago. You’ll be receiving this newsletter
periodically throughout the year, with information on events happening, historical tidbits,
pictures, and other interesting features.
Our town is very spread out geographically, with many individual owners’ associations
and other groups with limited connections. (Well, except when we all connect at the
transfer station.) We don’t always know our neighbors. We have a great opportunity to
use this anniversary year to meet and appreciate the other residents, permanent and
summer, in our town. We want to attract all ages and backgrounds to come to events,
get involved and feel proud of our town. We hope to build community.
We will use all the communication channels we can: email, social media, town website,
flyers, signs, word of mouth—to spread the word. So please pass this on!
UPCOMING EVENTS
Come to the kickoff January 8th
Join with your fellow settlers in petitioning The
Authorities to establish a new town, to be called

Jan 8 at 7 pm, with period appropriate refreshments

cloak and bonnet, to kick off our year-long celebration.
