Springfield Supportive Housing Program Americorps Volunteer Courtney Campbell and her daughter, assistant Grinch Bricklee Adams, 7, set up at 56 Main Street in Springfield, VT, Friday evening to wish holiday cheer and pass out treats to children as part of
the Winter Holiday Sticker Map adventure. Twenty-five businesses and local organizations in the downtown area participated in the joint event organized by Springfield On The Move and Springfield Chamber of Commerce.
The sticker maps lead participants
on an adventure throughout the downtown area on a reinvention of a trick-or-treat-style contest for children of all ages to collect tiny trinkets, candy and stickers.
The adventure helped launch an evening of Christmas-themed activities in Springfield. Avant Vermont Dance performed the third-act of its Seasons series, “Winter,” and Claflin Family Food set up to serve food. The Springfield Community Band brought holiday cheer with a little music to warm up the crowd for the community tree lighting ceremony at which Santa made his grand entrance.
