Historic Preservation & Community Development  July 16-17, 2018 Community development is defined as “a process where community members come together to take collective action and generate solutions to common problems.” Historic Preservation plays an important role in community development, particularly when so much of Vermont’s preservation work is focused in our downtowns and village centers.   This retreat is available to volunteers who are interested in helping Clarendon Heritage strengthens their community. Registration Deadline: July 1, 2018.   Contact us if you are interested in attending.
