Good morning, this is your Burlington Local Frequency for Friday, June 6th, 2025.

Burlington is buzzing with excitement today as the Burlington Discover Jazz Festival continues its 42nd year. The festival, which kicked off on June 4th and runs through June 8th, is transforming Downtown Burlington into a musical haven. Today's lineup features two fantastic performances at different venues: The Janéa Hudson Quintet at 6 pm and The Dusk Quartet at 8 pm. This year's festival is curated by Anthony Tidd, an acclaimed international jazz artist and Guggenheim Fellow based in Harlem, and is presented by Vermont Tire & Service Inc. with Nokian Tyres.

In sports news, the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics Vermont wraps up today. The run, which began on Tuesday, June 3rd, has seen law enforcement officers carrying the Flame of Hope across the state in support of Special Olympics athletes. Today marks the final day of this inspiring event that connects our community with a wonderful cause.

For those interested in environmental matters, the Federation of Vermont Lakes and Ponds is hosting their 2025 Lake Seminar today. This hybrid meeting is taking place at the South Burlington Library Auditorium, with an online option via Zoom for those who can't attend in person. Coffee and refreshments will be provided during breaks, making it a perfect opportunity to learn about lake conservation while connecting with like-minded community members.

In local government news, South Burlington is conducting interviews today for various board and committee positions. If you applied by the May 28th deadline, you might be meeting with city officials today as they select new volunteers to help shape our community's future.
