Royalton Vermont 250th Birthday

Welcome Royalton Vermont 250th Birthday Blog

          Fun Fact:  Take a map of Vermont, fold it in half vertically, then fold in half horizontally,  open the map and find the center point of the two folds. Give or take a millimeter or two, you will find yourself in Royalton VT.
   
        Sometimes referred to as central VT or the heartland of VT, the town of Royalton VT is celebrating its 250th birthday this year.  A 3 day town wide event is being planned to take place on August 15 thru August 17 and you are cordially invited to follow along as the event takes shape, learn about our town, and join the festivities.

          The town is located on the east side of the Green Mountains, and the White River, (largest river east of the Green Mountains), cuts through its center. Royalton can be described as hilly and curvy with farm land and meadows along side the river, all with a surrounding of hills just large enough to be called mountains. White in the winter, lush green in the summer, and a spectacular mix of reds, yellows and orange in the fall.

        Royalton is comprised of 3 villages, North Royalton, Royalton, and South Royalton.  South Royalton is the home of the Vermont Law School.  The only law school in the state.
