Published 2 months ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Burlington Local Frequency for Wednesday, February 25th. Wintry weather is shaking things up today, but our community spirit is as strong as ever, turning potential setbacks into exciting opportunities that bring us closer together.
First off, sports fans, mark your calendars for some indoor action. The Siena Saints womens lacrosse team is facing off against our very own Vermont Catamounts at 12:30 p.m. right here in the area at Afrims Sports Park in Colonie, moved up from Virtue Field due to the snow. Its free admission, limited bleacher seating, but bring your folding chair and catch the stream on AmericaEast.TV. Parking is gratis, so bundle up and cheer on the Catamounts, who are riding high after their record-breaking performance by UVM athletes at the 2026 Winter Olympics. Those feats are inspiring local pride and reminding us how our backyard talent shines on the world stage.
Over at the University of Vermont, campus is buzzing with energy. The Civic Engagement Fair runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Davis Center, perfect for students and locals connecting with community causes that shape Burlingtons future. Right after, the Spring Job and Internship Fair kicks off at noon till 3 p.m., a golden chance to network and land opportunities that keep our economy humming. These events foster real-world connections, helping young professionals and organizations tackle everything from sustainability to social good.
Adventure seekers, Alley Kat Adventures has two fun sprees starting at Speeder and Earls: a Random Acts of Kindness event and the Burlington Blitz Scavenger Hunt, both today. Spread positivity or hunt clues across our snowy streets, turning ordinary moments into memorable stories that strengthen neighborhood bonds.
Tonight, treat yourself to Broadway magic at the Flynn Center with Kinky Boots at 7:30 p.m. This toe-tapping musical about acceptance and fabulous footwear is a feel-good escape, selling fast so grab tickets quick. Meanwhile, neighborhood watchers in Wards 4 and 7 have their NPA meeting today, keeping our voices loud in city decisions.
Health note: Vermont Department of Health reports COVID-19 and measles cases dropping, though flu B is high, so stay vigilant with handwashing amid this weather. Reflecting on Sundays vibrant Wintervale at the Intervale, where snowshoes, smores, and raptors like screech owl Miami drew crowds to our 360-acre haven of trails and farms, its a reminder that even in February, nature and community recharge our spirits against urban sprawl.
This has been Burlington Local Frequency. Well see you tomorrow with more local updates.
