Doors open at noon and the program runs from 12:30 – 3:00.

This year's event is dedicated to Roger Omer Gibeault, who passed away on September 23, 2025. Roger was energetic for causes he believed in. Fortunately for Dismas, Roger stepped up to work on the Burlington Dismas House Planning Committee. Hardworking and most dependable, he attended all the meetings and brought new volunteers and resources, making it possible to open the Burlington Dismas House in 1986. After the house opened, Roger continued to be involved as a cook, council member, plant sale host, board member, and supporter extraordinaire for 40 years.

We were incredibly lucky to have him in our community; his presence is missed.
