It’s a relaxed\, open conversation about money\, planning\, and whatever’s on your mind. \n\n\nMay: Summer PauseLonger days and shifting routines can make this time of year feel both energizing and full\, so before summer sweeps you away\, take a moment to pause.

This is a relaxed\, welcoming space to reflect\, recalibrate\, and talk through money decisions in a way that feels grounded and practical. Come as you are and join the conversation. \n\n\nAugust: Fall TransitionsAs the seasons shift\, so do routines and priorities. Settle in with something warm and join an open conversation about what this transition might bring—new schedules\, business cycles\, evolving goals\, or unexpected change. We could explore how these shifts connect to your financial life\, from cash flow to longer-term direction\, or wherever the discussion naturally leads. Bring your questions and curiosity. \n\n\nNovember: Year’s EndAs the year winds down\, it’s a natural time to reflect on what’s unfolded and consider what comes next. Gather your thoughts and join the conversation around year-end considerations—from giving and tax planning to tying up loose ends or preparing for January. This is a supportive place to organize your reflections\, acknowledge progress\, and make intentional decisions before the calendar turns. Wherever you’re at\, you’re welcome at the table.

DESCRIPTION:Join us in the pub for all your favorite Mad River Barn menu items with live music from Steven Yardley! Open 5 pm – 9 pm. Live music every Wednesday in the winter! \nSteven Yardley is a folk rock troubadour\, and bluesman that howls with a harmonica and a six-string. Yardley has spent years honing his craft on the guitar: slide\, alternate tunings\, flatpicking and fingerpicking. He traces the rock n’ roll songbook from the Mississippi Delta\, Highway 61\, Appalachia\, and Brit Invasion to the more offset sounds of the 90’s – 2010’s indie movements. Lyrically\, Yardley is storyteller\, a surrealist\, and prolific—penning hundreds of songs since he learned to write. While his material is mostly original\, he enjoys crafting new interpretations of familiar favorites.

In late 2015\, a fire gutted the historic structure\, raising urgent questions about preservation. Through a remarkable collaborative effort led by the Vermont Forests\, Parks\, and Recreation in partnership with Donald P Blake Jr.\, Inc. and Northern Architects\, the Stone Hut was thoughtfully rebuilt and reopened less than a year later. This talk explores the hut’s layered history\, and its post-fire reconstruction from a member of the design team. \nThis talk is presented as part of our Spring 2026 Speaker Series. All talks are free and open to the public\, and take place Wednesday evenings from 6:30 – 8 pm. No registration required\, just drop by. Join us in person or online via livestream on our YouTube channel.
