Please join Rutland Neighbors for the 1st Annual Winter Sleep Out on Friday, March 20 at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, 6 Church Hill Road, Rutland, Vermont.

Participants will gather at 7:00 p.m. for a simple evening meal, reflection, an overnight outdoor presence, and breakfast and reflection the following morning. This fundraiser and awareness event will bring the community together to sit with discomfort, cold, darkness, and uncertainty, knowing that for many in our community, this is not one night, but many.

Participants are invited to join as individuals or create a team with others. Participation is flexible – join for the full overnight program, come for just the evening program and/or breakfast and reflection, or sleep outside at home.
