BRATTLEBORO

Brattleboro, Vermont, is a lovely Southern Vermont town of about 12,000 people nestled between the Connecticut River to the east and the southern foothills of the Green Mountains to the west. Known for the Vermont Jazz Center and the New England Center For Circus Arts, Brattleboro has an eclectic atmosphere while still being a quintessential New England town. The downtown is lively and has many restaurants, and the area is full of natural beauty and opportunities for outdoor recreation. In a Vermont take on an exciting tradition from Pamplona, Brattleboro hosts an annual Strolling of the Heifers, a weekend event including an outdoor party and a parade of local cattle and local people through the downtown streets to promote local food consumption, and resilient communities.

Our training will be held at the Winston-Prouty Campus, a beautiful, woods-filled slice of Southern Vermont just outside downtown Brattleboro. Formerly the Austine School for the Deaf, the Winston-Prouty Campus now serves as the home of numerous community organizations and educational centers. Our training will take place on the open 4th floor in Holton Hall at 130 Austine Drive. The campus is tucked away in 100 acres of woods and offers views of surrounding mountains and hills with hiking and walking trails directly connecting to the campus.

The Winston-Prouty Campus is a 30 minute walk or a 5 minute drive from downtown Brattleboro.
