<h2>What is The Woodstock Democratic Town Committee?</h2><span class="image image-framed image-left image-tilt-left" style="width: 40%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/64cd38ab-00d1-42d0-9625-18d6d3318162/22f556c2-1f3e-497f-b764-865a4bd56dca/22f556c2-1f3e-497f-b764-865a4bd56dca.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C4284%2C5712&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><p>A Democratic Town Committee (DTC) is the official local organization of the Connecticut Democratic Party in each of the state's 169 towns and cities. Members are elected by registered Democrats in the town every two years under Connecticut General Statutes and party rules.</p><p>The Woodstock DTC has several core responsibilities:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Recruiting and endorsing candidates</strong> for municipal offices — Board of Selectmen, Board of Finance, Board of Education, and others — as well as for state legislative seats representing Woodstock. Finding strong, qualified neighbors willing to serve is one of the most important things we do.</p></li><li><p><strong>Supporting campaigns</strong> through volunteer coordination, fundraising, voter outreach, and communications.</p></li><li><p><strong>Engaging voters</strong> on the issues that shape life in our town: education funding, property taxes, town services, and the future of Woodstock as a rural community.</p></li><li><p><strong>Connecting Woodstock to the broader party</strong> — working with neighboring DTCs, our state legislative delegation, and the Connecticut Democratic Party.</p></li></ul><p>The committee meets monthly (usually the first Wednesday of the Month at 6:30, at Woodstock Town Hall - <a href="/1b8d191d-3ee8-4a82-b644-f75aa351f0b4#block-0a44edda-b133-4312-8119-1fc7a66506ac">click here to find the next meeting</a>) and welcomes participation from anyone who shares our values — whether or not you're a registered Democrat. (Under state party rules, only registered Democrats may serve as voting members of the committee, but everyone is welcome at the table.)</p>

<h4>35th Senate District Convention</h4>

<span class="image image-framed image-left image-tilt-left" style="width: 40%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/64cd38ab-00d1-42d0-9625-18d6d3318162/d6dfa51c-e8f8-4783-a1a3-f7ad6304d671/d6dfa51c-e8f8-4783-a1a3-f7ad6304d671.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C4284%2C5712&amp;w=1500" alt="dueling coffees" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><p>Just before the convention kicked off, the small town caucus of the CT Dems had a meet up of small towns over coffee and breakfast. Our full delegation was there representing Woodstock and connecting with other small towns from across the state. We often focus on the Quiet Corner (as is appropriate) but it was interesting to learn more about towns that we don't have much connection with - we were surprised how Woodstock and Woodbury have more in common than we thought - not just the start of our town names! Looking forward to continuing the work with the small town caucus in the future.</p><span class="image image-framed image-center image-tilt-left" style="width: 80%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/64cd38ab-00d1-42d0-9625-18d6d3318162/19ece88e-7009-4056-85ef-5b87127cf341/19ece88e-7009-4056-85ef-5b87127cf341.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C5712%2C4284&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><p>While the reason for this get-together was to connect with small towns, it didn't take long for that to go a bit off the rails as elected officials and those running for office stopped by. We got a photo of most of our delegation (Ethan was off schmoozing somewhere) with a contemplative Josh Elliott.</p><span class="image image-framed image-center image-tilt-right" style="width: 80%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/64cd38ab-00d1-42d0-9625-18d6d3318162/d5db389a-ce31-44d9-abf8-9c3eef1d5720/d5db389a-ce31-44d9-abf8-9c3eef1d5720.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C1448%2C4284%2C3359&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="right" variant="framed"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><span class="image image-framed image-left image-tilt-left" style="width: 40%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/64cd38ab-00d1-42d0-9625-18d6d3318162/112ad72f-c7d6-4da2-b3fc-971d0058b04c/112ad72f-c7d6-4da2-b3fc-971d0058b04c.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=1145%2C0%2C3885%2C4284&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><p></p><p>Governor Lamont also stopped by and we had a chance to talk with him as well. We didn't ask for a group photo there since some of our members were pretty visibly supporting his challenger. Kevin did his thing and engaged with everyone as if they had known each other their whole lives. Toward the end, Pat Boyd stopped by to say hi - and then we were off to our seats and the work of the convention.</p><p></p><span class="image image-framed image-center image-tilt-right" style="width: 100%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/64cd38ab-00d1-42d0-9625-18d6d3318162/af799cd7-2f6e-4b73-802a-42a4e3acdf73/af799cd7-2f6e-4b73-802a-42a4e3acdf73.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C5712%2C4284&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="50" tiltdirection="right" variant="framed"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span>

<h4>Small Town Caucus Meetup</h4>

<p>The Woodstock Democratic Town Committee held its May meeting on May 26th to a full house, including a special visit from <strong>Governor Ned Lamont</strong> and State Representative <strong>Pat Boyd</strong>. Governor Lamont highlighted Connecticut's fiscal turnaround — from multi-billion dollar deficits to a healthy rainy day fund — and outlined priorities for his next term, including reform of school funding, universal free school lunches, and expanded affordable health care. He also took questions from attendees on topics close to home: Eversource rate regulation, Day Kimball Hospital's integration into the UConn Health system, and the state's Blue Ribbon Commission on education reform, which aims to find regional solutions to the rising costs of special education. The Governor also gave a strong endorsement to DTC member and candidate for the 35th State Senate Seat <strong>Ethan Werstler</strong>, and made it clear why having Ethan in Hartford representing us would be a fantastic improvement for the region. While the Woodstock DTC has not yet endorsed a candidate in the gubernatorial primary, there was universal appreciation for the Governor taking time to visit our DTC.</p><span class="image image-framed image-center image-tilt-left" style="width: 80%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/64cd38ab-00d1-42d0-9625-18d6d3318162/c1da45d0-d0df-4895-b741-6d63c4f24154/c1da45d0-d0df-4895-b741-6d63c4f24154.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C2046%2C2046&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><p>The committee also heard from two candidates running in northeastern Connecticut House districts. <strong>Dr. Angelina (Lina) Wagner</strong>, candidate for the 51st District, spoke about her commitment to listening to constituents and her advocacy on environmental issues including the fate of Old Killingly Pond. <strong>Marcus Palumbo</strong>, running in the 47th District, outlined a platform centered on lowering costs for working families, supporting labor rights, and increasing Education Cost Sharing funding as a path to property tax relief. Members also heard from <strong>Max Gigle</strong> of the Quiet Corner Democrats, a regional organization working to support Democratic campaigns and flip seats across northeastern Connecticut.</p><span class="image image-framed image-left image-tilt-left" style="width: 40%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/64cd38ab-00d1-42d0-9625-18d6d3318162/b51b187d-e562-42e0-b21e-ca7a76cb1afa/b51b187d-e562-42e0-b21e-ca7a76cb1afa.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C1535%2C2046&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><p>On the organizational front, the committee formally adopted a new mission statement and party platform, launched its new official website at <a href="http://WoodstockDTC.org">WoodstockDTC.org</a>, and endorsed <strong>Jessica Weaver Boose</strong> as the committee's nominee for Registrar of Voters. The committee set an ambitious fundraising goal of $15,000 for the year to support voter outreach, digital advertising, and Get Out The Vote efforts ahead of the August 11th primary and the November elections. </p>

<h4>Probate convention</h4>

<p><strong>Woodstock</strong> is a rural&nbsp; town in Northeast Connecticut consisting of working farms, small businesses, strong schools, and neighbors who look out for each other. The Woodstock Democratic Town Committee believes that government works best when it is transparent, responsive, and grounded in the everyday lives of the people it serves. We bring Democratic values — fairness, opportunity, stewardship, and respect for each and every resident — to the practical work of running a small town. <strong>This platform defines our guiding principles and outlines our aspirations for the town and its governance.</strong> It is meant to guide our work, set the standard for the candidates we recruit and endorse, inform the voters we serve, and hold us accountable to our community.</p>

<h2>Preamble</h2>

<p><strong>The</strong> <strong>Woodstock Democratic Town Committee stands with the Connecticut Democratic Party on the core values that define our party</strong>: defending voting rights and democratic institutions, advancing economic fairness, protecting reproductive rights, addressing climate change, and ensuring civil rights and equal opportunity for every resident regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, faith, or background. <strong>This platform focuses on the issues that are uniquely local to Woodstock</strong>; on the broader matters that shape life in Connecticut and in the nation, our position is one of full alignment with the <a href="https://www.ctdems.org/platform" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">state party platform</a>.</p>

<p>Write a little something about your issue here.</p>

<h2>Alignment with the State Party Platform</h2>

<p>Safe roads, reliable emergency services, and well-maintained town infrastructure are core obligations of local government. We support adequate funding and staffing for our volunteer fire and emergency services, sensible traffic safety measures at intersections and along corridors that residents have repeatedly identified as dangerous, and careful planning for the long-term maintenance of roads, bridges, and town buildings. We also believe Woodstock's infrastructure should serve all who use it — whether they travel by car, by bike, or on foot. Deferred maintenance is not savings; it is debt, paid later at higher cost. We support facing those obligations promptly rather than pushing them to the next budget cycle or the next administration.</p>

<h2>Public Safety and Infrastructrure</h2>

<p>A small town takes care of its own. We support strong, year-round programs and support services for seniors, accessible services for veterans, and broader attention to the residents — across every age and circumstance — for whom Woodstock is becoming harder to afford or more difficult to navigate. The ability to age in place, achieve food security, obtain easily accessible transportation, and connect to regional services are all part of what it means to be a community and not just a municipality. We will work with town agencies, regional partners, and community organizations to make sure no neighbor falls through the cracks.</p>

<h4>52nd district convention</h4>

<p>Town government belongs to the residents of Woodstock, and its workings should be visible, accessible, and easy to engage with. We support clear and timely communication from town offices, accessible meeting schedules and materials, and meaningful opportunities for public input before decisions are made — not after. We believe professional, well-supported town administration produces better outcomes than ad hoc decision-making, and we support investing appropriately in the staff and systems that keep town government functioning. Above all, we expect every elected and appointed official, including our own, to conduct the public’s business in public with respect and appropriate decorum.</p>

<h4>May 26 Meeting Recap</h4>

<p>Sound town finances require both prudence and fairness. We support disciplined budgeting, honest and informed long-range planning, and a tax structure that does not place a disproportionate burden on those least able to bear it. The 2025 revaluation made it clear that the impact of broad tax changes can fall unevenly across our community. We believe the town has a responsibility to monitor those impacts, communicate them honestly, and respond — including through tools available under state law, such as property tax deferral programs for income-qualifying residents. We trust voters to weigh in on the town budget at the referendum, and oppose preemptive cuts to essential services made in anticipation of how voters might react.</p>

<h4>Convention eve with Josh Elliott</h4>

<p>Disability is a natural part of the human experience, and Woodstock's commitment to being a welcoming, inclusive community must extend fully to those residents with disabilities. We believe disability rights are civil rights — not a matter of charity or accommodation, but of equal participation in the life of our town.</p><p>That means working to ensure that town buildings, meetings, communications, and services are genuinely accessible — not just technically compliant. It means recruiting and welcoming residents with disabilities to serve on boards, commissions, and in elected office. It means recognizing that accessibility improvements benefit the whole community: a virtual option for board and commission meetings, for example, allows a resident with hearing loss to use captioning, a neighbor recovering from surgery to participate from home, and a parent putting a young child to bed at seven o'clock to still have a voice in their town government. Inclusion, in this sense, is not a special accommodation — it is simply good design.</p><p>We support accessible formats for town communications and meeting materials, and a standing commitment to ask — in every planning and policy decision — whether all of our neighbors can fully participate.</p>

<h2>Disability Rights and Accessibility</h2>

<p>Woodstock's working farms, forests, and open space are essential to who we are, and protecting them requires active choices. We support open space preservation, the protection of working agriculture, careful stewardship of natural resources, and land use planning that respects our rural character while accommodating thoughtful, appropriately-scaled development. We believe climate resilience — protecting our roads, water systems, and homes from increasingly volatile weather — is a local issue as well as a state and federal one. The Woodstock our children inherit should be at least as healthy and beautiful as the one we received.</p>

Climate resilience — protecting our roads, water, and homes from volatile weather — is a local issue, not just a federal one.</p>

<h2>Land, Environment and Rural Character</h2>

<p>Woodstock should be a place where working families can afford to put down roots, where young people who grew up here can stay, and where seniors can age in place without being priced out of the community they built. That requires an honest acknowledgment that housing in Woodstock — like much of Connecticut — is becoming less affordable, and that local land use decisions shape who can live here.</p><p>We support zoning and planning policies that expand housing options without sacrificing our rural character, and we encourage the town to actively explore the tools available under state law to make housing more accessible to working families, young people, and seniors.</p><p>A town that cannot house its teachers, its young families, or its aging residents is not a town that is planning for its future. Housing affordability is not just an economic issue — it is a question of what kind of community we want to be.</p>

<h2>Housing affordability and community vitality</h2>

<p>The Woodstock Democratic Town Committee held its monthly meeting on May 6th. Here's a summary of what we discussed and decided.</p><h4>Special guest: Adam Richardson, Courtney for Congress</h4><p>We welcomed Adam Richardson, campaign manager for Congressman Joe Courtney, who shared an update on the race and broader electoral picture. Key takeaways: Democratic voter turnout in our area has been strong — up from 65% to 81% in recent cycles — and Woodstock's active civic participation has been noticed statewide. Adam discussed the importance of phone calls to the Congressman's office in shaping his priorities, the competitive landscape heading into 2026, and the ongoing fight to protect fair district maps following recent Supreme Court gerrymandering developments. There was also a lively discussion about clean energy policy, including the Revolution Wind offshore project and rising electric rates.</p><h4>Woodstock recognized at 35th District State Central Committee Convention</h4><p>Five Woodstock delegates attended the Democratic State Central Committee Convention for the 35th District, and our town was recognized by other communities as a model for consistent participation and grassroots engagement. We're proud to be a leading voice in the Quiet Corner. Quiet Corner Pride</p><p>Members shared a positive report from the recent Quiet Corner Pride event. The WDTC table drew strong engagement around our theme of staying engaged and getting out to vote. Great conversations were had throughout the day.</p><h4>Town budget passes — what comes next</h4><p>We celebrated the passage of the FY2027 town budget, which passed by 240 votes. Members discussed the importance of countering misinformation and continuing to engage constructively in town discourse. A broader conversation emerged about how the DTC can help shape the narrative around how new state funding is put to use for Woodstock residents.</p><h4>Fundraising and candidate support</h4><p>The committee discussed a goal of raising $20,000 in the near term to support our local candidates and organizational priorities. Members identified four key spending categories — mailings, events, candidate support, and outreach — and agreed that building a compelling vision for donors is essential. We're focused on efficient, high-impact activities as we head into the election cycle.</p><h4>New website launch underway</h4><p>We reviewed a new WDTC website built on the Designed to Run platform, with a goal of going live by end of May. Volunteers — Greg, John, Kevin, Karen, and Jim — signed up to help develop content, and we discussed adding updated photos, graphics, a news section, and an events calendar. The committee also approved spending up to $150 for initial setup and up to $50/month for ongoing hosting.</p><h4>Next meeting moved to May 26th</h4>

<h4>Josh Elliott Visit</h4>

<p>Woodstock's public schools are central to our community's present and future, and we believe in funding them adequately to meet the needs of every student. We respect the Board of Education as an independently elected body and support a budget process that respects its work rather than treating its requests as a starting point for reduction. We support transparent, long-term planning for school facilities and capital needs, including any decisions about consolidation. All plans and decisions should be made on the basis of educational quality, fiscal honesty, and genuine community input — not pre-decided behind closed doors. Strong schools will allow the town to keep its vibrant young families, attract new ones, and invest in the generations that will inherit Woodstock.</p>

<h4>50th district convention</h4>

<p>Democracy in Woodstock most of all depends on residents who show up — to vote, to attend meetings, to serve, and to speak. We support broad access to voting, including the new early voting system, and we support the recruitment of capable, committed neighbors to run for local office regardless of their previous political experience. We welcome participation in the work of our committee from anyone who shares our values, whether or not they are registered Democrats. And we believe political discussions in a town of our size should be conducted with integrity and respect — including with those who may hold very different views. Local democracy is built one meeting, one conversation, one neighbor at a time.</p>

<h2>Civic Engagement<br></h2>

<p>Woodstock is the steward of significant public resources, including the <strong>Herbert W. Bowen Fund</strong> — a roughly $20 million endowment held in trust for the benefit of the town and its residents. We support transparent, professional management of these assets, including clear public reporting, prudent diversification to limit concentration risk, and faithful adherence to the obligations established by the donor and by Connecticut law. Decisions about how and when these resources are to be used should be made openly, with the long-term interests of Woodstock residents at the center of the decision process. The Bowen Fund is too important to be managed quietly.</p>

<p>Once the convention adjourned, we moved to Pratt Street for an after party hosted by the CT Young Democrats along with Senators Blumenthal and Murphy.</p><span class="image image-framed image-center image-tilt-left" style="width: 80%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/64cd38ab-00d1-42d0-9625-18d6d3318162/a9177513-c002-4e3f-b0fa-afaa12cada3e/a9177513-c002-4e3f-b0fa-afaa12cada3e.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C5712%2C4284&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span><p>This unstructured time where we could connect with other Democrats was some of the most fun and engaging of the convention day. We were able to chat with Senator Chris Murphy and Comptroller Sean Scanlon as well as many other local Democrats - including folks running for office in the Quiet Corner like Sam Derenthal (44th), Lina Wagner (51st) and Marcus Palumbo (47th). Unwinding with a beverage and a bite to eat before headed home after a long day was critical!</p><span class="image image-framed image-center image-tilt-left" style="width: 80%;"><span class="image-inner-wrapper"><img src="https://run.imgix.net/64cd38ab-00d1-42d0-9625-18d6d3318162/138ede4d-f805-45b4-9ec7-bdce345797f4/138ede4d-f805-45b4-9ec7-bdce345797f4.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C2046%2C2046&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="center" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed"></span><span class="caption" style="display: none;"></span></span>
