A girls’ high school varsity soccer team in Vermont is taking a page out of the U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team’s playbook, by mixing sports and social activism. “We want to show that we’re all going to stand behind this issue and we’re all going to fight for it together,” Burlington High School freshman Lydia Sheeser said of her team’s.
The Vermont Army National Guard is planning a lighted convoy in western Vermont Tuesday evening.
Operation Santa’s Convoy will occur from 4:30 until 8:25. It will travel nearly 65 miles from St. Albans through Georgia, Milton, Winooski, Essex, Williston, Richmond, Waterbury, and Montpelier to the Berlin National Guard Armory.
The lighted convoy celebrates the holiday season and supports Governor Phil Scott’s Vermont Lights the Way Initiative to decorate buildings, trees or other items for the holidays to brighten communities during the pandemic.
