Progress on the Star

When our Rotary Club undertook this fundraising effort, we suspected that many people felt as we do about the history and future of the Star atop Mt. Tom.
However, we did not in our wildest dreams imagine that the outpouring of support would be so huge.
 
Well, here we are in 2024 and the Woodstock Rotary Club’s fundraising efforts to “Save the Mt. Tom Star”, which was lunched on November 5, has received extraordinary support, far surpassing our goal of $120,000. 
 
The actual work to take apart and haul away the old structure and get the steel and other materials to the top of Mt. Tom for the actual rebuild to begin will take place in late spring once the trail has firmed up.
 
Our Club plans to hold a ceremonial “relighting” of the Star, probably on the Green, when all of the work is completed. 
The plaque with all of our tiered $500 and over donors will also be revealed and placed on Mt. Tom at the base of the new Star. 
We will advertise that date when it is determined. 
 
Once of the rebuild and re-electrification is done, and the plaque in place, any surplus fundraising monies will be applied to its future maintenance. 
 
We thank each and every donor for their generous support of this project which advertises to all who visit or live here just how much of a “community” we are whether our hearts are near or afar.

Our Star - Off to a Great Start

Norm Frates is the Auctioneer
 
On Sunday November 5th, The Woodstock Rotary held a gala event at the Woodstock Inn.
It was a special event to kickoff the our fundraising campaign to replace the Mt. Tom Star.
 
Norm is the chairman of the fundraising campaign and was interviewed on WCTV about the need to replace the star.
 
140 people from the Woodstock community came out to support our efforts and at the end of the evening $78,000 had been raised or pledged.
An excellent start to our goal of $120,000.
 
For those who missed the event, contributions can still be made.
 
The star will have 100 lights and we are offering donors the opportunity to purchase a light at several donation levels.
Platinum -             $5000
Gold -                   $2500
Silver -                  $1000
Bronze -                $500
 
Donors at these tiered levels will be listed on plaques at the star in appreciation for their generous donation.
Fundraising is expected to continue through March, but we might be done earlier if Sunday’s event is any indication.
 
 
If you would like to make a contribution, you can make contributions directly to the Woodstock Area Rotary Charitable Fund
 
Send it to:
Rotary Club of Woodstock,
PO Box 581,
Woodstock, VT 05091
 
 
If you would like to purchase/pledge a star, send us an email through the 'Contact Us' section of our website.
