Middlebury250 committee launches T‑shirt contest, cookbook push and new website
Summary
Committee members set tasks for a K–12 T-shirt design contest, renewed calls for cookbook recipe submissions and announced a new committee website that First Selectwoman Mahr will publicize on the town site.
The Middlebury250 Committee discussed multiple outreach projects at its Feb. 24 meeting, assigning follow-up tasks on a K–12 T‑shirt contest, a community cookbook and the committee website.
LeAnn Cassidy volunteered to research vendors for T‑shirt printing and to add winning designs to the committee website. First Selectwoman Jennifer Mahr said Parks & Recreation contact Robert Mastroianni may be able to provide a vendor lead. The committee discussed a print‑on‑demand option that would allow winners to be selected and printed as needed.
On the cookbook project, Mahr said the committee remains open to recipe submissions but noted there had been no recent items sent to the committee email. The website is live at https://sites.google.com/view/middlebury2501776america2026, Cassidy reported; Mahr said she would publicize the link and request it be placed on the town website.
The meeting record does not specify budgets or vendor contracts for merchandise or cookbook production; members agreed to continue outreach and report back at a future meeting.
