Water rushes into Waterbury during the storm
Many of you might have heard that Waterbury was severly flooded when Hurricane Irene passed over VT on Sunday. Our friends and neighbors in the village evacuated just in time as the flood waters rose to 3-4 feet in their houses and businesses. Due to the flooding, our favorite post-ride pub, The Alchemist, will be closed indefinitely while they rebuild.
We were lucky to be on high ground and the shop was not affected by the flood and we are open for business. Please have patience as we may have to help our friends and neighbors during the recovery effort and might not always be available. Feel free to call us at 244-7330 to check hours and availability.
As for the Perry Hill trails, the Stowe Mountain Bike Club is asking riders to give the trails some time to dry out and to consider volunteering with the flood clean up effort in Waterbury in lieu of mountain biking while the town recovers from this tragedy.
To help with the relief effort, please visit the Waterbury Good Neighbor Fund and donate money or time to help get our town back on it’s feet.
