On May 16, 2008, we hosted our 19th Annual Benefit and Auction, A Taste of the Town. It was an unqualified success! Thanks to all who attended and the parents, friends, Board and staff members who added their talents in the planning stages. We want to recognize the American Legion, which donated the use of their facilities, Ian Kelley of WTSA, who donated his time as emcee, and Justine Lyford, who did a fabulous job of coordinating the event. Special thanks to our presenting sponsor, Chittenden Bank, our sponsor, Entergy Vermont Yankee, and our supporters Brattleboro Savings & Loan, JDL Associates Engineering, The Richards Group, and The Trust Company of Vermont.
