WARWICK As part of the town’s efforts to reopen the former Warwick Community School as an independent elementary school, the Selectboard has given its seal of approval to an educational trail plan for the 25-acre grounds.
The Warwick Education Committee and Town Lands Trails Study Group developed the plan, which involves creating trails throughout the school property that will be marked with educational signs, as well as viewing platforms and benches.
Members of the Town Lands Trails Study Group said marked trails will bring walkers to unique places. The 25-acre grounds contain a cranberry bog, two registered vernal pools and a lily pond.

Modified: 4/26/2021 2:40:41 PM If you happened along the road from Warwick to North Orange in the 1800s, you might have noticed a woman walking along wearing a dark green cloak and carrying a carpet bag left over from the Civil War. This woman was Zylpha Smith. Clare Green, trustee of the Warwick Historical Society, has portrayed Zylpha at Warwick Old Home Days and other events, to encourage interest in Warwick’s history and the Warwick Historical Society.
