Barre Social Club Space
The space has a main entrance right off Main Street. You will enter and be greeted at a welcome table to check in. The main space is the next area, where seating will be out for the audience and a small “stage” area for the WGDR show, with a sound system sized for the space. The back of the room has a separate bar space, where there will be standing room to mingle while the event is underway. There are single use, accessible bathrooms off the main audience space.
Collective Care
As a station, we are still as covid cautious with our in-person gathering as we can be. We ask that all party attendees make a community-minded decision and not come if they are feeling ill in any way. We are committed to providing as safe a space for all of our community to gather as possible. The space has a heat pump to providing cooling and air flow, but we will also have the front door open for most of the start of the event helping with air flow. That said, there will be no additional increased air filtering at the site. We are fully supportive of masking for personal protection, but will not require it of the audience or performers.
We are also mindful of those with chemical sensitivities. Please do not wear perfumes, colognes, or other highly scented body products. We will do our best to have the space be as low-scent as possible, but as it is a public event, some folks may be wearing products that give off scents.
If any of this limits your ability to attend in person, the event will be live broadcast at 91.1 FM and 91.7 FM and livestreamed at WGDR.org for free, so you can listen live or after the event.
Families and Kids
We are a kid friendly station. Bring the whole family to enjoy the show and see a real life radio show in action.
Food & Drink
We’ll have free seltzer and water at the event. You can bring your own water bottle to limit waste and any snacks you may need, though we ask that you not bring any larger meal to eat, as it could distract from the event.
Leave your furry friends at home, please.
Due to our expected attendance, please do not bring a pet to the event, unless they are a service animal and are trained. We want everyone as comfortable as possible.
Requesting additional accommodations:
Please don’t hesitate to contact Llu Mulvaney-Stanak, Executive Director at Llu@WGDR.org or call (802) 276-0365 to request any additional support that would make attending the event safe and comfortable for you.
