Vermont towns join bicentennial flag program statewide
The Vermont Bicentennial Commission declares every town and city in Vermont a bicentennial community eligible to fly the bicentennial flag. Elmore was the last to apply, placing Vermont among Rhode Island Connecticut and Hawaii with full participation. Unique to Vermont is plans to include unorganized towns with buried time capsules for future historians. In Woodstock, a Hartland woman’s pre trial murder hearing was postponed at least 30 days as Judge Hilton Dier granted a defense continuance. Cheryl Gillen, 21, faces first degree murder charges in her husband’s March 27 shotgun slaying.
