Have you seen the Emergency Rescue Squad or the fire companies in action? Have you needed them? Have you been on the Village Green and enjoyed the gardens there and also the gardens around town? Isn’t it heartening that we have Family of Woodstock, Daily Bread Soup Kitchen, Hospice, Woodstock Area Meals on Wheels, and the Food Pantry? Have you seen a performance at PAW, or Shakespeare in the park, or the Woodstock Playhouse? Have you been to Christmas Eve on the Green? Have you admired the view at the Zena Cornfield? Have you enjoyed the Woodstock Artists Association & Museum, Byrdcliffe Guild, Little League, Soccer League, Habitat for Humanity, Woodstock Loan Closet and many more, look at the list of community organizations inside this website. As a community, we are very, very fortunate.

Mission Statement

The mission of the Woodstock Volunteers’ Day Committee is to honor all of our volunteers, to enhance the efforts of all our community organizations, to raise awareness about the wide circle of kindness and generosity in our community and to model for our children that our community values the volunteer spirit.

Volunteer’s Day is a day in which there is an opportunity to help us all remember what is good about our community. While we are reminded everyday of the considerable acts of kindness and personal generosity that our volunteers offer us on a daily basis, never asking to be thanked, on Volunteers’ Day, the volunteers are the “Guests of Honor.” This is our community’s expression of gratitude. A community should never take its volunteers for granted.

The Woodstock Volunteers’ Day Committee recognizes the members of all the charitable and service organizations in our community. Our Town Picnic is organized in their honor, a music festival is preformed, volunteers are treated to lunch, their children and grandchildren are provided playful activities.
