A Solon Salute to Zoey Dubois who was nominated for the Burlington Free Press Athlete of the Week. Congratulations Zoey. You've got our vote! The nomination: "Zoey Dubois, Montpelier gymnastics: In a home duel meet vs. powerhouse Essex, Dubois won floor (9.2) and finished second in vault (8.65) to claim all-around honors with a score 33.05. Dubois finished 10th in the all-around at last year's state championships."

A Solon Salute to Lily Fournier and Ian Keene, for their recent appointments by the Montpelier City Council, to seats on the city's Historic Preservation Committee and the Conservation Committee respectively. Their appointments through the new Solons on Boards initiative demonstrates their growing interest in taking part in the democratic processes of our government. Nice work, Lily and Ian.

A Solon Salute to Eve Taylor, Sharon Boateng, Mandy Abu-Aziz, Vega Rodriguez Sanchez and Izzy Maine-Torres for giving up a day of vacation to volunteer at the Aldrich Library moving furniture and books. Your dedication to helping others is really appreciated!


A Solon Salute to poet Lizzy Fox. In collaboration with the Montpelier High School Wellness Initiative and through the generous support of a Vermont Arts Council Artist in Schools grant, she joined Julie Morton's and John Bate's English 9 classes right before break. She taught poetry as a means of exploring sensory language and observing the present moment. They also practiced reading their poetry aloud. Thanks Lizzy!
