Northshire Area Trail Systems
Today on the show we speak with Jon Mowry. Jon has been a part of the Northshire area biking community for decades and talks to us about the evolution of the mountain bike trail systems here in the area, and shared how volunteers have given us the amazing trails that continue to increase in mileage every year. We hope you enjoy this conversation, and learn some new things, including how you can be part of the growth of mountain biking in this area by volunteering to get out there and dig some trails. The area is shaping up to be a hub for bikers of all kinds in the north east, and we are stoked to have it in our backyard!

BDCC
In the Episode we spoke With Jennifer Stromsten and Sarah Lang of the Brattleboro Development Credit Corporation and learned how the name of their organization is rather misleading though they are laser-focused on Business Development in Southeast Vermont! As we like to discuss on our show, these actors behind the scenes play such a huge roll in the success of our urban and rural communities, so we are excited to introduce you to a couple of them and spread the word about all the great things they are doing, and how YOU can pitch in to help!
