This month is going by so fast with all of the short weeks and long weekends!

We hope you're busy working on funding proposals and envisioning ways to make Woodstock even better. Remember we have $5,000 available this year to make things happen. Proposals are due February 17! When you're done with that, join us at Movie Night on Friday where we'll be showing the Wild Robot. This event will include an option to preorder pizzas to go with your popcorn and other treats. Hope to see you at the show!
