Creemees, Community, and Coalition: NSAC’s Summer Meeting in Stowe, Vermont
As we do every summer, NSAC coalition members recently gathered for our summer meeting, from August 4-7, in Stowe, Vermont. Located some 25 miles east of Vermont’s largest city, Burlington, and about 40 miles from the US-Canada border, we met at the Trapp Family Lodge (yes, that’s right – owned by the Von Trapp Family, from The Sound of Music!) in Stowe, nestled in the Vermont hills with Mount Mansfield looming in the distance over our meeting place. The location provided a soothing place to hunker down and put our heads together to strategize around our priorities and campaigns. The haze from Canadian fires did not deter some morning walks, nor did it deter our spirit to advance NSAC’s priorities.
