About Us
Revitalizing Waterbury (RW) is one of Waterbury’s most active
and action-oriented non-profit organizations. Since 1991, RW’s
mission is to preserve and enhance the economic, historic and social
vitality of downtown Waterbury, Vermont. Put simply, RW strives to create
and maintain a vibrant downtown that serves as the social and economic
hub for our entire community and which is welcoming to visitors. RW
members, Board of Directors, staff
and volunteers help bring small and large projects, activities and
events to life.
Board of Directors
RW
has an all volunteer Board of Directors. Over the years the board has
included civic-minded members of Waterbury and Duxbury, including downtown
business and property owners. Individuals on the board are a mix of
specialists and generalists, visionaries and hands-on doers. We are
also a group that likes to have fun.
The RW board meets the second Tuesday of every month at 5:30 p.m. at Thatcher Brook Primary School in the conference room.
RW welcomes new energy and ideas. For more information about our board contact MK Monley.
