On Sept. 10, volunteers planted a welcome garden at Exit 1 as the first stage of the Exit 1 Gateway Project, the idea of our group of concerned citizens who joined this summer to initiate a movement for greater beautification and maintenance of the town's landscape with citizen participation.
We adopted Exit 1 as our first project because it has been an under-recognized area of great importance.
As the first exit in Vermont, Exit 1 serves as a primary gateway to both our town and our state. And we felt that the business owners on Canal Street, with all their importance to the town's economy, could only benefit from an effort to make the approach to their district as attractive as possible.
Our garden got planted in the face of the major disruption of Tropical Storm Irene - a testimony to the spirit of our community.
