A reminder to Woodstock Early Birds that we need to stay up a little later this evening and rise from the semi-torpor of summer-like temperatures during Mud Season to participate in Village Meeting this evening at the Woodstock Town Hall.
As one WEB fan who follows everything from dormer decisions to snow plow planning wrote yesterday, “I wouldn’t miss it for the world!”
But the “buried headline”, my WEB friends, is that Woodstock Elementary School has decided NOT to sell raffle tickets at this important once a year civic confab. Hence the headline: “Well Played WES!” We are in receipt this morning of a fine note from Woodstock Elementary School’s Karen White:
The Village Trustees have been very helpful to the elementary school. While I appreciate the opportunity to sell raffle tickets at the Village Meeting, I don’t want to pressure our citizens. The voters of Woodstock are very supportive of our school and I truly appreciate that support. I don’t want to take an action that makes participation in our Village Meeting uncomfortable for anyone. We will not sell the tickets at the meeting. Thank you to the Trustees and community members for your ongoing support of our school!

Karen White has great sensitivity and class. We are all most fortunate to have her as WES head.
