Past event
May 1, 2024, 12 to 3 PM

Third Act is a community of people over sixty years old determined to change the world for the better. Bill McKibben started it two years ago. Come meet local Third Act members to learn more about how you can take action to help end the climate crisis and protect our democracy.

Everyone is welcome to come to the Putney Friends Meetinghouse, Wednesday, May 1, noon to 3:00 for an introduction to Third Act. The Meetinghouse is located at 17 Bellows Falls Road, (US Route 5) a quarter mile north of the Putney Country Store. It is handicap accessible.

~~~ Noon – Potluck lunch
~~~ 1:00 Introductions to the basics of Third Act and how to be involved in nationwide campaigns on climate, elections and voting.
~~ 2:00 Talk about Next Steps

In Third Act Vermont our vision is to unite Vermont elders to leverage our power to equitably and justly help end the climate crisis and protect a vibrant democracy. Currently there are more than 600 Third Act members statewide.

Windham County members of Third Act are writing postcards that target reluctant voters, working on state climate legislation, preparing to join in major actions targeting the biggest US banks that are funding more fossil fuel development, and more. There is a lot to be done and you are needed. Please join us for this informational meeting.

The event is free and open to the public. However, donations to cover the cost of the facility will be welcomed. For more information contact Laurel Green at laurel1planet@gmail.com
