Thanks, as always, to ibrattleboro for welcoming Guilford announcements. & actually in this case kids from other towns may attend this session for a modest $50 for the week. (We think that’s a pretrty good bargain for a day camp that includes breakfast (kids can bring lunch, and there are snacks throughout the day, too;) theater games and acrtivities with two wonderful teachers, afternoon activities and time outdoors, and a pretty good-length day 9:00 am to 3:30 pm. And any child needing transport can arrange for one of the staff, including Lbrary trustees and othger parents, to carpool.
We continue our series of occasional interviews with Town Manager Peter Elwell with some general questions about towns and governing. This time, we look at “the future.”
