Green Mountain Books celebrates 50 years in Lyndonville
Via Community News Service, a University of Vermont journalism internship, for North Star Monthly LYNDONVILLE — For 50 years, Green Mountain Books has been a staple of the Lyndonville community. Founded in 1976, the building where Green Mountain Books resides was once a commercial auto shop. Behind the shelves, the glass panes of an old garage door can be seen. The now-empty floor above the shop was once a display room.
Groton's Re-Treasured Closet is a lifeline and living room Original
Groton's Re-Treasured Community Closet fills several niches in this small, rural town. It's a gathering space, a secondhand clothing swap, and a provider of food and clothing for anyone who needs them. While the Closet is open to thrifters and window-shoppers, its main goal is to support people in need, as well as members of the unhoused community and Groton's aging residents, said founder Jodi Fleurie-Wohlleb.
How do Vermont hunters find wounded deer, bears? Leashed dog trackers
Sam Stout UVM Community News Service Dec. 30, 2025, 4:46 a.m. ET Despite improvements in weapons and the best intentions, sometimes hunters wound but don’t kill their prey. That’s where Vermont's leashed dog trackers come in. The state maintains a list of certified dog handlers who volunteer their time to help hunters find wounded game, customarily for free.

15th Annual River of Light Parade Brings Waterbury Community Together - Community News Service
WATERBURY — The thud-thud of the drumbeat rolled ahead of the crowd, preceding the wave of lights coming down Waterbury’s Main Street at 5:00 p.m. last Saturday. As the lights got closer, their shape began to clarify. Held high over the heads of the moving crowd were lanterns depicting a penny-farthing bicycle, a pink gumball with eyes — Kirby, the Nintendo character — and a five-part dragon. One person carried the head of the dragon, other people held its torso and tail.
Board to debate reimbursement, seasons for trackers of wounded game - Community News Service
Despite improvements in weapons and the best intentions, sometimes hunters wound, but don’t kill, their prey. That’s where Vermont’s Leashed Dog Tracking Service comes in. Founded in 1996, it provides free and voluntary assistance to help hunters locate wounded game. As the cost of everything increases, one volunteer has asked whether trackers could charge for the services, at least enough to cover gas and expenses.

Shelburne Farms offers closer look at cheese-making
If you were to walk through the two massive barn doors at Shelburne Farms’ central complex, you would see a hangar-sized room, a desk and two windows. The window farthest away — the one to the back of the room — is small and fogged over and coated with soot. The larger window to your side frames something of a live exhibit: Two people clad in aprons and sanitary caps and masks toil over a metal bin, stirring a sea of cheese curds.

Letters: Praise of corrupt Donald Trump is delusional, hurts our democracy
I found it laughable, sad, and a bit infuriating to read the fantasy-based diatribe from Gerry Villavaso. The delusional praise for the former occupant of the White House was pathetic.
Letters: Giving ink to deniers of the November election result undermines democracy
I wish to object to your publication of the May 4 letter from Marie Spicuzza which spread patently false information regarding the past presidential election. Donald Trump lost, which has never been denied by any but the deluded wing of the GOP. To give ink to such blatant lies is to undermine our democracy to the benefit of sore losers. Your paper seems to promote such foolishness to the detriment of journalism everywhere. SAM STOUT retired New Orleans
New perspective carries Stout to UFC 185
Sam Stout was two months removed from his 17th professional victory when he hit the lowest point of his mixed martial arts career. On August 14, 2011, Stout’s brother-in-law and former fighter-turned-trainer Shawn Tompkins died of a sudden heart attack in his sleep at the age of 37. It’s a loss that took the London, Ontario native’s heart out of the Octagon. “It felt like I was punching a clock,” Stout told TSN.ca. “I wasn’t enjoying myself at all really.
