Outdoor public spaces are economic drivers for community engagement and tourism. The condition of parks, sidewalks, and public squares communicates civic competency, commitment, and values. Woodstock Village Conservancy imagines well-kept landscaped public spaces, connected by safe and accessible pathways, that welcome residents to use, appreciate, and support and encourage visitors to explore and enjoy. 

It will accomplish this through

• collaboration with the municipality, local businesses, non-profits, and individual volunteers, 
• funding from private and public sources, and 
• implemention and transparent reporting of activities.

Woodstock Village Conservancy will focus on placemaking within the Village of Woodstock. Placemaking is defined as the planning, design and management of public spaces, capitalizing on a local community's assets, inspiration, and potential, with the intention of creating public spaces that improve urban vitality and promote people's health, happiness, and well-being.

Woodstock Village Conservancy recognizes that our plans are ambitious and will require patience, communication, and collaboration. We anticipate the impact to take several years to manifest but relish the community-oriented process that will get us there. Essentially, Woodstock Village Conservancy believes that a centralized management model can provide a single point of contact and resources for complicated or large projects, improve under-resourced areas, and present a consistent, safe, and accessible visitor and resident experience.

Woodstock Village Conservancy will adapt to the needs and desires of stakeholders to enhance and maintain public spaces that serve and inspire our community and its visitors by creating and implementing, with partner entities, a roadmap to leverage and manage community resources and stimulate philanthropy to fund major projects and maintenance.

We are looking for volunteers to join our leadership team.
