The Guilford Recreation Commission collaborated with Craig Whipple, the Director of VT State Forests, Parks and Recreation to draft a Memorandum of Understanding, to enable free day usage of Fort Dummer State park by Guilford residents. Even though access to the entrance of the park is in Brattleboro, many people do not realize that most of Fort Dummer State Park is located in Guilford, which is the main reason why the Recreation Commission was interested in promoting its usage by Guilford residents.
