Improving the lives of the people who live & play in our community

Health & Wellness • Social Interaction• Economic Vitality

The Crown Jewel of Vermont

A community is not necessarily a place or a building. It’s a feeling of belonging and relationships among others with common interests. While a community is not necessarily a building, a Community Center acts as a neighborhood focal point for people of all ages. The Nox Community Center will be unlike anything in Vermont or for that matter all of northern New England.  It will provide Southern Vermont with a dynamic community space where people of all ages can participate in vibrant activities centered around athletics, fitness activities, education, health, and wellness and an engine to contribute to a sustainable economic future for the community.

The Nox will support a variety of initiatives that look at ways to improve the lives of people of all ages. It will be accessible and affordable to all members of our local community and beyond. The community center’s initiatives will focus on programming to support local schools and school activities along with programming around fitness, organized youth and adult athletic tournaments, general recreation, social interactions, and health and wellness community impact events.

The Positive Impact for Southern Vermont

Community Centers are critical for a vibrant, healthy community—they provide opportunities for active living and recreation in a safe, inclusive environment. Community Centers play a critical role in personal health and wellness by creating a positive atmosphere, thereby reducing reliance on healthcare and other costly social services. This, in turn, can boost the local economy and contribute to overall economic development. Now more than ever, these centers can be a beacon of social connectiveness for their residents, leading the way in educating about health, nutrition  and general well-being.

The Nox Community Centers will serve to empower youth, strengthen our region and local neighborhoods and provide life-enriching programs for all members of our community. The Nox Community Center will focus not only on lifetime goals of health and wellness for all ages, needs and abilities but will also impact the region more broadly.

In our changing and challenging economic environment, the Community Center will be another regional driver for our sustainable economic future. The ability of a community center to host region-wide events and gatherings will support all of our industries like retail, hospitality, tourism and more.

Health & Wellness

Encouraging a Healthy Community

Individual wellness is a cornerstone of the health and vibrancy of our communities. Many Vermonters, including young people and seniors, face mental and physical health challenges that can be improved through communities prioritizing a culture of health, wellness and being active. The Nox will help promote a culture of active living, wellness, and fitness as vital to the overall health of our entire community.

Healthy Access & Equity

Living an active lifestyle is important for so many reasons but challenges to access can impact community members leading a healthy life. Access to health, healthcare and wellness services create barriers in many communities across the country. Community centers help bridge those gaps in services, care, and support for leading a healthy and active lifestyle. The Nox will offer an affordable option for all members of our community to access options for pursuing healthy habits and remaining active year-round.

Mental Health & Wellness Support

Movement is not just medicine for your body but also for your brain. Movement not only fuels our energy, enhances our health, increases our resilience to stress, improves our sleep and enhances our mood but also drives our social interaction, and in fact, there’s even more benefits when we move as a tribe. The Nox will be a place for year-round movement and support for mental health and wellness. Offering yoga, meditation and fitness classes and a variety of programming and workshops on mental health and wellness while offering chances for socialization, access to community programming, and of course, exercise. All these services add up to a happier, healthier community.

Social Interaction

Creating & Building Relationships

Relationships and Friendships are literally a determinant of health, and community centers make it easier to build them. The Nox offers a place for unplanned social interactions, friendship building and provide a casual space community members of all ages need to create organic connections.

Youth Development

The Nox will support helping youth develop lifelong healthy habits and promote health and wellness. The social benefits radiate out into all parts of youths’ lives—participating in leagues, afterschool programs, and camps. The Nox Community Center will provide a safe place for young people to hang out during their ‘away from school’ time, make new friends and have new interactions, and stay out of trouble.

Mental Health & Wellness Support

Movement is not just medicine for your body but also for your brain. Movement not only fuels our energy, enhances our health, increases our resilience to stress, improves our sleep and enhances our mood but also drives our social interaction, and in fact, there’s even more benefits when we move as a tribe. The Nox will be a place for year-round movement and support for mental health and wellness. Offering yoga, meditation and fitness classes and a variety of programming and workshops on mental health and wellness while offering chances for socialization, access to community programming, and of course, exercise. All these services add up to a happier, healthier community.

Family Support & Programming

Community Centers are lifelines for many families. The Nox programming offers family-oriented support, and programing; support that makes it possible for parents to participate in community activities and take much-needed breathers.

Economic Vitality

Boosting the Local Economy

The Nox Community Center will be an added contributor to local economies. The Nox will not only be a direct source of job growth and job creation but will also indirectly support local employers, restaurants, hotels, retail stores and entrepreneurs with year-round activities attracting regional and national activities to Southern Vermont.

Increasing Educational Equity & Access

The Nox will provide access to reasonable-cost programming and learning, which is invaluable for folks of all income levels. Activities and programming will be offered not just around fitness but include art and music classes, continuing education courses, job and career training and will partner with local organizations to help support ongoing, year-round access and availability for all members of our community.

Hosting Year-Round Events

Similar to Community centers across the country, the Nox will host local, state, and regional activities and serve as an economic driver for hospitality, retail and tourism. Gathering places are important for connecting people, no matter where they come from, and host spaces like The Nox are vital for making it all happen.

The Space

The NOX will be year-around space designed with activities and interests for all ages and all levels of health, wellness, and fitness. The space will include the following:
