Pittsfield’s Town Shut Down potluck picnic in the Town Center.
The town of Pittsfield has something to celebrate. We are hosting Pittsfield's Town ShutDown potluck picnic in the Town Center, on August 26, 2012 from 12:30–7 PM to reconnect, reflect and celebrate the incredible community strength that united an isolated town in the wake of Tropical Storm Irene.
We encourage carpooling, walking or riding bikes to the town to as we did after Irene. If you are coming from afar look for PTSD parking on Stanley Tool Rd (Between the Fire House and the Pitts-Stop), around the town green, at the church, at the CV Oil office, in front of the cemetery and at Bikram Yoga.
The event will begin with an informational "Morning Meeting" at 12:30 at the Pittsfield Federated Church, which started most of our days early in the morning after Irene.
Throughout the day there will be...
Slideshows-pictures and videos collected people in town
Open House-sneak peak of newly renovated Town Office and library
Artistic kids activities 1:30-4:30 PM
Music by the South Royalton Band 2-3:30 PM and special appearance by the trio of Treble Makers
