Brattleboro parade and festival will highlight local farmers and local food. The 16th annual Strolling of the Heifers Weekend, featuring a parade of fl ower-bedecked heifer calves led by future farmers up the historic Main Street of Brattleboro, VT takes place June 2, 3 and 4. Organizers promise many special surprises for the occasion. The centerpiece of the weekend is the world-famous Strolling of the Heifers Parade, which starts promptly at 10 a.m. on Saturday, June 3. The signature heifer calves lead the parade and are followed by other farm animals, tractors, bands, fl oats and much more. The crowd then follows the parade to the all-day Slow Living Expo to enjoy food, family fun, entertainment and ex- hibits. The Expo stretches over two sites and 11 acres on the Brattleboro Common and the Brattleboro Retreat grounds. Over the years, Strolling of the Heifers has grown from a one-hour parade into a full weekend packed with family events, and attracts tens of thousands of visitors to this scenic Connecticut Valley town in the heart of New England. The weekend has consistently been listed among the top sum- mer events of New England and has received international attention. The mission of Strolling of the Heifers is to connect people with healthy local foods and with the farmers and produc- ers who bring it to them. In recent years, the mission has expanded to include a year-round set of programs aimed at encouraging innovation and entrepreneurship in farm and food businesses.

  • SPIRITED THINGS: Sacred Arts of the Black Atlantic
    SPIRITED THINGS: Sacred Arts of the Black Atlantic TRAVELING EXHIBITION SERVICE 2 SPIRITED THINGS INTRODUCTION he ruthless triangular trade that flourished between the continents of Europe, Africa, and the Americas T brought millions of enslaved Africans to the Americas, where African priests—assimilating some of the practices and beliefs of the radically new cultures they encountered—gradually adapted their ancestral religions to their people’s new and dire circumstances. The Afro-Atlantic religions are products of Africans’ long-running cosmopolitanism, and represent a complex, syncretic response to the tragic beginnings of globalization. This exhibition explores a family of religions that emerged from the centuries-long turmoil and diaspora of the trans-Atlantic slave trade. TRAVELING EXHIBITION SERVICE 3 4 SPIRITED THINGS SPIRITED THINGS: Spirited Things explores a family of religions that evolved in the context SACRED ARTS OF of the trans-Atlantic slave trade. At its root are the ancestors of the Yorùbá people and their gods, called òrìṣà (in Yorùbá), orichas (Spanish), orixás THE BLACK ATLANTIC (Portuguese), or orishas (English). West African monarchs and merchants invoked the òrìṣà in rituals of healing and for the protection of their interests in the coastal trade with their European counterparts. Later, West Africans enslaved in the Caribbean and South America adapted these same gods to their own, more existential needs of mutual assistance, healing, and spiritual uplift, often in defiance of their captors’ attempts to suppress their ancestral traditions. They disguised and amplified their continued worship of African gods by combining them with similar Roman Catholic saints and indigenous spirits. This blending of African, European, and Native American iconography and practices is a hallmark of the religions of the African diaspora, which include Haitian Vodou, Cuban Santería (also called Regla de Ocha), Brazilian Candomblé, and Caribbean Spiritism.

    2013 Annual Report Champlain Community Services “Community is our middle name” Champlain Community Services Our Mission is to help individuals with developmental disabilities experience all of life’s opportunities by enhancing self esteem, maximizing independence, and enabling community membership. 512 Troy Avenue, Suite 1 Colchester, VT 05446 802.655.0511 ccs-vt.org From the Executive Director Welcome to our Annual Report FY 2013 represented an exciting time of rebirth for "the little agency that could," and that has, for more than 46 years! We completed a total interior renovation of our building at Fort Ethan Allen. This brought out the best in this beautiful and historic structure, and allowed us to stand poised for growth over the next 46 years. As executive director, I feel a strong commitment to both our past and our future. CCS is a unique and special place, founded and developed by families. While we've grown and branched out over the years, we've maintained our ability to provide personal and creative services. Having been a part of CCS for more than nine years, my primary goals are: to help ensure our agency continues the wonderful work of providing valuable employment, community, and residential options to the people we serve; to maintain our strong sense of community; and to develop, train, and sustain our staff so we’ll continue to deliver the highest quality, family-oriented supports in the state. CCS, while small, is part of something bigger, and I also recognize an important role for us in the community. We have a responsibility to mentor our community about the real value of the people we serve.
