      Good morning, this is your Burlington Local Frequency for Saturday, June 7, 2025.

      The Burlington Discover Jazz Festival is in full swing this weekend, bringing world-class musicians to our city. Today features a special tribute to hip-hop's relationship with jazz at Waterfront Park, showcasing performances by New Orleans brass musicians. Guest curator Anthony Tidd has done an impressive job bringing together international talent alongside Vermont's local music scene, creating a unique fusion that celebrates both the history and future of jazz. Festival events continue throughout the downtown area, so grab your walking shoes and follow the music.

      In local sports, baseball fans should head over to catch the playoff game between Mt. Mansfield and South Burlington varsity teams today. This neutral playoff matchup promises some exciting action on the diamond as these two talented squads face off.

      In city government news, Police Chief Jon Murad has announced he will not seek reappointment when his term ends later this month. Mayor Emma Mulvaney-Stanak's administration is likely to begin the search process for a new chief soon.

      Speaking of the Mayor, her administration recently celebrated the opening of the middle segment of the Champlain Parkway, which includes a new multi-use path designed to improve pedestrian accessibility in the city. This infrastructure project has been long anticipated by residents.

      For those interested in community development, the Governor and Department of Housing & Community Development recently announced recipients of the 2025 Downtown Transportation Fund grant awards, with several Burlington projects receiving funding. These grants aim to enhance transportation infrastructure throughout Vermont's downtown areas.

      If you're looking for family activities beyond the jazz festival, remember that many of our parks and recreation facilities are open with extended summer hours. The waterfront area offers plenty of options for enjoying this beautiful June day, from bike rentals to paddleboard opportunities.

      The forecast calls for sunshine and comfortable temperatures, making it a perfect day to explore all that Burlington has to offer, whether you're a music lover, sports enthusiast, or simply looking to enjoy our vibrant downtown and lakefront areas.

      Burlington Local: Farmers Markets, Lakeside Yoga, and Summer Concerts on This Sunny Saturday
      May 31 2025
      Good morning, this is your Burlington Local Frequency for Saturday, May 31st, 2025. Waking up in Burlington, it’s a beautiful Saturday and the city is brimming with ways to spend your weekend. Today, the Burlington Farmers Market will be in full swing downtown as usual, offering up fresh produce, local cheeses, artisan bread, and the kind of handmade crafts that make perfect gifts or souvenirs. The early summer crops are coming in, so expect strawberries, snap peas, and the first bursts of color from Vermont wildflowers on sale.

      If you’re looking to get outside and enjoy the weather, Waterfront Park is hosting its regular Saturday yoga session at nine. No need to sign up, just bring a mat and join neighbors for a relaxing start to your day with views of Lake Champlain. Later this afternoon, Battery Park’s summer concert series continues with local indie bands taking the stage. Bring a blanket or a lawn chair, gather your friends, and soak up the music while the sun sets over the Adirondacks.

      Families with kids might want to head down to the ECHO Leahy Center for Lake Champlain, where today’s activities include hands-on science demos and special lake ecology tours. Plus, don’t forget that the city’s outdoor pools open this weekend, with lifeguards on duty and plenty of space to splash around as temperatures rise.

      On the civic side, Burlington’s city officials are encouraging residents to review the latest updates on the fiscal year 2026 budget proposals. There’s a particular focus on public safety and community development, with opportunities coming up for public comment and feedback sessions. In related city news, Mayor Emma Partridge announced the appointment of Kara Alnasrawi as the new director of CEDO, Burlington’s Community and Economic Development Office. She’s already talking about plans to expand affordable housing and boost support for local businesses, so it’ll be interesting to see how these changes take shape over the summer.

      Residents are also reminded to stay aware of updates from the Burlington Police following last week’s incident involving reckless endangerment near North Champlain Street. The city is urging anyone with information to contact local authorities and as always, neighborhood safety continues to be a top priority for city leaders.

      For those who prefer art and culture, the Fleming Museum at UVM is featuring a new exhibition of Vermont artists that explores themes of community and nature, open from noon till five today. And for food lovers, Church Street’s patios are now open with restaurants rolling out their summer menus, making it a great night to dine al fresco.

      That wraps up your Burlington Local Frequency for today. Whether you’re heading to the farmers market, relaxing by the lake, or discovering something new at a museum, there’s plenty to fill your Saturday. This has been Burlington Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
