2 wedding activities are scheduled for this summer. The grass will be adorned with brilliant white tents. Guests can relax with the summer bounty of green grass and fresh flowers. BVO offers ice breaker opportunities to keep guests occupied and entertained with a float trip on the Battenkill, bicycle rentals to discover the back country roads, or options with hiking. Both of these events will offer overnight camping to those who celebrate but choose not drive.
BSA Troop 23 from Burlington, CT has made the Battenkill a destination with us for 4 years. The leaders sleep restfully in the Long Lodge, and the boys camp on the grounds. The pavilion offers a regrouping structure for meals & activities. They spend 2 days on the river, learning skills, team building, & camping out.
