Noticed Around Brattleboro – Spring 2026
Time for another “Noticed…” – it’s the place where you can write just sentence or two about something you’ve seen around town that caught your eye. Such as:
The ice fishing huts have been removed from Retreat meadows ; the benches used for skating have seemingly sunk in a bit and will be extricated when things free up, I’m guessing.
Not so much noticed, but remembered – work on Putney Road will happen once the weather stabilizes.
