Third winter, is that you? I was celebrating the snow melting yesterday but Mother Nature has made a fool of me yet again.
I know in a few short months, I’ll be complaining about the humidity but what I wouldn’t give for some melty ice cream on my stoop right now.
Ok, let’s get into it.
Hurrah for Town Meeting!
If you haven’t heard, Woodstock voters will be gathering on tomorrow at 10am Town Hall for part 1 of Town Meeting. I suggest arriving ahead of time to get a seat and a parking spot.
Many, many thanks to Change the World Kids who are sending two babysitters to watch kids 4+ upstairs in the big conference room until 1pm.
It is very likely we will be doing a paper ballot for the article related to the elimination of the lister’s position. So, prepare yourselves for some orderly single filing in the auditorium.
If you are an organization that has a petitioned article or if you are running for office, I highly encourage you to attend to speak to the community on behalf of your cause or yourself :)
Here’s your ballot guide (again)
Part 2 of Town Meeting Day will be Tuesday, where voters can vote by paper ballot from 7am-7pm at Town Hall. You can still pick up an absentee ballot today during the clerk’s office hours.
Ok, let’s go do our civic duty! You can email or text me with questions about the ballot or about the process.

Make tomorrow a double header! VSSA Humane Society is hosting a rabies clinic at WUMS/HS from 1-3pm. $15 per shot (which is sadly and staggeringly cheaper than the human vaccine)
