Committee leadership reported plans and dates for Boyce Hill work: an Aug. 23 committee work day focused on bog‑bridge construction and light work around the pond steps, followed by a community work day on Sept. 21 with Sept. 22 as a rain date. The minutes state Ben Bridgewater was approached about thanking/reimbursing him for his contribution to the pond stairway project; he intends to submit an invoice showing a discount he will treat as a donation.
The cellar hole and trails near the orchard have been mowed but more work is needed. A video documenting Boyce Hill’s hill‑farm history was released on YouTube and recorded more than 1,000 views to date. At a dinner meeting, Sugarbush’s John Hammond said their mowing cannot begin before the fall nesting‑bird season has ended according to forest‑service regulations, which explains scheduling constraints.
