The MRVRD Board met on Nov., 19 to review a draft budget which was passed unanimously. We would also like our community to be aware of our 2024 Accomplishments and Goals for 2025. Email Laura, our Ex. Director at laura@mrvrd.org with questions.

For three decades the towns of Fayston, Waitsfield and Warren have funded the Mad River Valley Recreation District and made our grant program a reality! These towns plus Moretown contribute to Mad River Park. Many thanks for making recreation a priority in the MRV! Learn more about our history.

Many thanks to the 60+ people who attended and the many volunteers who helped plant the Riparian Buffer. After the ribbon cutting on Mill Brook Bridge, thank you VOREC, we were treated to young bike riders crossing the bridge with great enthusiasm.!The Off-Grid Bathroom & Downtown Trail are open thanks to the Mad River Path. Stop into the Welcome Center and volunteer for a shift at the Chamber of Commerce or Build Your Online Itinerary!

MRV Recreation District celebrated 30 years of recreation in the Valley! John Stokes won a Lifetime Achievement award and Charlie Hosford was honored with the first MRVRD Volunteer Hero Award!
