Reminder about Events at the Meetinghouse
The rental coordinator, Janice Baldwin, would like to remind anyone seeking to use the meeting house for any event whether public or private, large or small to check with her beforehand, or fill out the application on the website.  This includes events that are posted as well. Janice is the coordinator of all meeting house events and does not want to double book the space, and can’t reliably schedule events if she doesn’t have accurate information.
You may contact Janice at:Email: rentals@putneyfriendsmeeting.orgPhone: 802-579-7598Parking at the Meetinghouse
Friends are encouraged when possible to park in the parking lot just south of meeting on the opposite side of Route 5 for late meeting and other heavily attended events as our lot fills quickly and spaces in the lot are appreciated for those of us unable to park further away. This is just north of the old Basketville Store and the Putney Mountain Winery & Spirits, as the owners have kindly allowed us to park there.  There is a sidewalk from there to the meeting.

Can you help?We encourage you to sign-up to be a greeter or to setup and run Lucretia (OWL). Please consider trying it out.  To help with our meetings for worship sign up on the Google Spreadsheet or on the sheet at the Meeting house.Sign Up Here
