SPRINGFIELD, Vt. – The Springfield Regional Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to announce “Spirit of Springfield,” a year-long collaborative community project celebrating the citizens of Springfield, Vt., and sharing our stories of collaboration, support, and resilience during the challenges of the pandemic.
We’ve created a public “kudoboard,” which is a digital bulletin board for collecting people’s input. This space is for everyone – residents, local leaders, students, senior citizens, business professionals, community members, even folks who may live out of town but work in Springfield – anyone connected to our town. Think of it like a time capsule for capturing all the memories, big and small, of what it’s been like living in Springfield during these strange times, and creating a record of all the things we’ve done to survive – and sometimes even thrive. At the end of the project, our aim is to print everyone’s contributions in a book so that we can give copies to the library, the historical society, and have copies available for sale with proceeds going to benefit a good local cause. We encourage you to share your experiences on this page, through photos, videos, and written words.
Kudoboard guidelines:
- Shout-outs are encouraged. Help us spread the word about folks who have been doing good things for others.
- Be creative! Incorporate your photos, videos, poems, etc.
- Be kind. Be civil. Insulting, bullying, or trolling comments will not be tolerated.
- No spamming or advertising.
We’re so excited about this project, and we hope you’ll join us in this shared opportunity to commemorate our collective pandemic experience.
