Fall Festival by Wynona Ward
On Saturday, October 11,
2014 there was a great time
had by all including adults
and children who attended the
annual Vershire Fall Festival.
The VerShare Board of Directors would like to thank all
that participated and made
the event possible. Although
the day started out chilly, the
sun did appear in the afternoon. Tents were provided by
the Vershire Summer Camp
program and were set up and
taken down by Arlan Shrock,
Gene Craft, David Hook, Richard Comstock and Laura
Craft.

VerShare Community Camp 2014 by Andrea Harrington
It is with deep and joyful gratitude
that I reflect back on my first year
coordinating our amazing Community Camp. It is truly a community
effort; with the energy and support, both in-kind and financial, of
our donors, board, volunteers,
staff, children, and families we
offered one free week of day camp to
over 50 kids! Everyone was glad to see
the salad bar each and every day and
our kitchen crew was stellar. We were in
awe as the donated veggies and snacks
poured in throughout the week. Parents
were concerned that their children were
not eating anything because packed
lunches were coming home full and we
had to let parents know that kids were
filling up on the salad bar options
(including locally laid eggs!). We asked
kids to make their parents feel good and
eat some items from home each day too!
People have been asking about next year
and we are definitely on for the first
week of August! Although folks ask about
returning to two weeks, I think I would like
to stay with one week and expand the
teen leadership side of things this year. It
would be great for staff to have more
than one day together before campers
arrive and there is so much that can be
offered and gained. A 3 day teen leadership “camp” ahead of the day camp
would mostly be on-site but could include
an overnight camping/kayaking portion.
Bonna Weiler has stated she is interested
in helping with this again in 2015.
One other thing that became quite clear
this year in reviving a camp that had
slept for a year is how sound the structure
of the camp has become over the years.
Kathy Hooke, Kathy Young, and all the
other founding folk have set it up to run
smoothly. I requested this year that the
VerShare Board take on the budgetary
and financials so that a coordinator could
just focus on the kids and the running of
the camp. This is part of the reason I was
willing and able to step in. The combination of the sound camp structure and consistent board run financials means that
others could easily step in to run the camp
in the future. This bodes well for the longevity of a beloved tradition in Vershire.

Annual Silent Auction by Wynona Ward
The Annual Silent Auction held on Vershire
Day in 2014 raised $1,852.00 for the
Children’s Activity Fund. Organized by
Kandy Grosser and Wynona Ward, the
auction was held on the first floor of the
Vershire Center Building.
Donations for the auction came from all
the Vershare Board of Directors, from
many Vershire residents, plus many local
businesses from around the area.
Items ranged from household goods,
clothing, furniture, toys, books, cheeses
Each year bidders come from all around from local farms, a cord of fire wood,
the area, some who anxiously wait at the maple syrup, crafts from the MIV shop,

There was a weekend at Hookes’ Haven
in Maine, a music lesson by Sam Moffat,
and an electric organ given by Kandy
Grosser was bid on and then donated to
the West Fairlee Congregational Church.
Not only does the auction floor serve as a
bidding arena, but also it serves as a
gathering place for people to chat who
have not seen each other for quite some
time. It is always heart warming to hear
someone say, “I bet you don’t remember
who I am” and then to see the smiles on
both faces as they discuss past events
together.
Community/Senior Meals First Wednesdays of the Month by Ken Stella
It has been my pleasure for
over a year now to provide
meals for the Community/
Senior Lunch program. I’ve also
been able to cook meals I
wouldn’t ordinarily do at home,
because now I have 20-30
guests. I enjoy being able to
match faces with the names of
townspeople I’ve heard, but not
known, for so many years.
I couldn’t do this without the
help of all the volunteers; beginning with Jeanine Ricker who
hand writes the postcard
announcements of our
menu. Debra Churchill has
been filling out our menu with
wonderful dessert creations.
Jean MacDonald comes in and
sets up our tables. Arlen
Shrock amongst many other
things, delivers meals to those
who cannot get out, averaging
7-10 meals.
Everyone gets involved with
serving tables, and cleanup,
including Sis Cadwell and Leslie
Marmorale. We all have fun
doing it, with lively conversation going constantly. And then
there’s little Alice Craft who
arranges the flowers for our
tables. It’s fun to see how
good she is with our elders.
So, remember, you don’t have
to be a senior to enjoy this
1st Wednesday of the month
get together.
THE SHOP IS GREAT FOR
CHRISTMAS SHOPPING,

PLACE TO PICK UP GIFTS IF

Vershire Community Library by Lynn Roy
2014 was another fun and busy
year at the Vershire Community
Library. The Library was open
Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday, and a few extra days
along the way. This year that
made for 163 days the Library
was open and 640 child visits.
Thursday is by far the most popular day – kids get off the
school bus right at the door at
2:30 and race in full of enthusiasm. Anywhere from 9 to 12 of
them show up each week - happy to have a snack and spend a
couple of hours of unscheduled
time. Crafts, art, outside play,
dress-up, reading, and homework make the time fly. Special
activities on Saturdays included
crafts, puppet shows, van trips to
places like the Montshire Museum, the ECHO Center, and the
Discovery Center in Concord,
and of course Halloween and
Santa’s yearly visit are big
events.
On March 10 we had a party to
celebrate ECFiber bringing high
speed internet to the Library.
25 people with their various
devices all going at the same
time made quite a sight!
The Civics Klatch met Wednesday mornings at 7:30 to watch

Culinary History to The Effects of

Saturday hours. Laura Craft
was my Thursday helper, Andrea
Herrington and Marissa Mazzucco helped with planning events,
and a great many others helped
out with the book sales and special events. You can see it’s a
community library!

The Vermont Reads program,
sponsored by the Vermont Humanities Council, provided us
DVD lectures followed by lively
with 30 copies of Wonder, the
story of a gutsy little boy with a
facial disfigurement. As part of
the program we distributed the
books and hosted an evening for
sharing stories of kindness. All
the students at The Mountain
School came and many shared
touching stories of kindness that
they had experienced. Another
event geared to adults was a
talk by Annie Ross explaining
home-based care for family
members at the time of death.

Community Soup and Pizza Night
The Soup and Pizza from the community bake oven (weather permitting) is an
added menu attraction. Laura Craft
calls on the community to help provide
these excellent meals. In a sense it is a
once a month potluck that you are not
obligated to provide a dish for.
And of course, it would not be what it is
without Carol Suich who makes pizza,
soup and other great goodies almost
every month. And thanks to the many
volunteers who prepare a pot of soup
for the occasion, the salads and breads
and of course desserts.
Over the course of the year, about 300
meals served to people who turned out.
In addition, Arlen Schrock makes deliveries to people who aren’t able to be
there in person, just as he does at Senior Lunch.
Good food and conversations catching
up with your friends and neighbors
every third Friday of the Month!

make it possible for high speed

January 2015
Dear Friend of VerShare,
It’s that time of year when we ask those of you who are members of VerShare to renew your annual
membership, and for those of you who are not members to consider joining. Membership dues, and
contributions, are essential for VerShare to keep doing what it does. We’re proud that VerShare is a
volunteer organization. Nearly everything done for VerShare is accomplished by volunteers, and
through funds voluntarily donated. No Town taxpayer money goes to VerShare.
During the past year, we have seen the Made-in-Vershire Shop continue to grow. We’ve also changed
our focus in providing opportunities for children during the summer. We had a return of our Summer
Camp. A week of fun had by all who participated thanks to Andrea Harrington for reviving this much
beloved camp. We used the VerShare van to take children on several field trips to neighbor towns
Hanover, and Strafford. We helped fund the contruction of raised vegetable beds at the Westshire
School. And we provided financial assistance to help several local children attend summer camps.
Maintaining the Church-Orr House, where the Vershire Community Library and the Made-in-Vershire
Shop are both housed, does take funds. Real estate taxes are over $3,000. Heating, electricity and
phone cost $4,500 in addition to regular building maintenance, and insurance is about $1,300.
Yearly membership dues ($5 for an individual and $8 for a family, unchanged for the past 15 years) and
contributions help to pay these expenses. We invite you to join or renew your membership (form enclosed). Of course, if you could contribute more, it would be very much appreciated and put to good
use.
Thank you for your support.
