Middlesex and Camp Meade receive grant to create river overlooks on the Winooski
Camp Meade and the town of Middlesex are partnering to implement a $20,000 Better Places grant to develop scenic overlooks along a planned river walk on the Winooski on land owned by Camp Meade’s parent company Planetary Matters.
The Vermont Community Foundation (VCF), the Agency of Commerce and Community Development (ACCD) and the Better Places partners awarded the grants to help communities reimagine and reopen public spaces and to help with placemaking.
Russ Bennett, one of the three Planetary Matters partners, said that he and his partners Alan Newman and Mike Pelcher will initially create two, but ultimately four, overlooks along the bank above the river and accessed from the green at Camp Meade.
