Consider Becoming a Member Today
/Dear Friends:
It’s Membership Season for Park-McCullough House, and we hope you’ll be a part of our 2017 community.
We are pleased to announce that for the second year in a row, we will be extending our hours, partially due to the generous support of our volunteers and docents. Walk-in tours will take place on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays Memorial Day to Columbus Day. Seasonal and holiday hours can be found on our website. Tours at other times can easily be arranged by contacting the House.
Living Room Theatre (lrtvt.org) returns to celebrate their sixth season with two exciting productions in July and August. STAY TUNED! We are happy to announce Metawee puppet show will be returning this season with its 2017 production of “Before the Sun and the Moon”. Our summer Music series continues into another season and features a new diverse range of musical genres including an opera singer. Follow us on Facebook to preview artist updates as they are announced throughout the season.
Thanks to continuing support from our annual fund donors, and to the Vermont Historic Preservation grant, the carriage barn foundation project will conclude this spring. 2017 membership funds will help support the house to invest in renewable energy. Electricity will be supplied to the house via a community solar project, which will lower expenses for the house and increase sustainability. In an effort to continue increasing awareness to sustainability, we are in the planning stages of developing a community forestry program. This will take a more proactive approach to caring for the beautiful trees and gardens of Park-McCullough. Our hope is to finish the project with a new exhibition and self-guided tour highlighting the history of our Victorian garden.
The 2017 Croquet season will start June 8th. By signing up for croquet, you not only enjoy playing on the lawns (with a cash bar on the veranda), but you also receive membership benefits.
We are deeply grateful for your support.
Allen McCullough,
President, Board of Trustees
