KILLINGTON – Residents of Killington are invited to join Town Manager, Debby Schwartz, for Killington Connects, a new series of morning walks with coffee, select Wednesday mornings during July and August. Killington Connects will give residents the opportunity to discuss questions, concerns, and ideas for the Killington community, and enjoy a morning walk on the back nine holes of Green Mountain National Golf Course, followed by coffee.

The walks, which start and end at the GMN Clubhouse, begin at 8:30 a.m. and will take approximately 45 minutes – don’t forget your camera! Following the walk, complimentary coffee will be served in the clubhouse, courtesy of Green Mountain National. Individuals may also just meet for the coffee portion of Killington Connects, which will begin at 9:15 a.m.  If there is inclement weather, the walk will not take place; however participants can still meet Debby at 8:30 a.m. for coffee.

The first walk is scheduled for Wednesday, July 13.

Schwartz was named Town Manager of Killington in March 2016, and has been in the job since April. “I’m eager to meet with the residents of Killington and hear, one-on-one, about what concerns them, and excites them about the future of their town,” said Schwartz. “I’m really looking forward to spending some quality time with them, and what better setting than the golf course with its spectacular scenery.”

Additional Killington Connects walks are scheduled for July 27, August 17 and August 31. The program is free and open to all residents.
