This fundraiser will help the Waterbury Ambulance Service reach their goal of $3 million towards the station creation project.

It is important to note that we are a nonprofit organization not a town or state agency and we rely on the generosity of community members like you. Your support, volunteer work, our annual household subscription, and donations allow us to provide award-winning services, operations, and back-country rescue. We were awarded Ambulance Service of the year by the State of Vermont in 2021.

Take a trip down Waterbury's "memory lane" with Historian Skip Flanders and rediscover your town! On Monday, September 12th at 5:30 PM, Skip will be leading a walking tour describing the historic buildings along the streets of Waterbury. Meet at the Waterbury Public Library's parking lot a bit before that, so as to start promptly at 5:30.

Some of the buildings include a former Stage Coach Inn, an historic business district rebuild after a massive fire in 1879, an original fire house and jail , the 1875 Railroad station and public park. The tour takes about an hour, covers about a mile along Waterbury Streets, ending on Stowe Street.
