What makes Mount Vernon and Lisbon special to you?

Is it your favorite local coffee shop, the familiar faces around town, Friday night lights, a community event, or something else entirely?

We think the charm of MVL goes well beyond Main Street, and we want to hear what makes this community feel like home to you.

Tell us in the comments! And if you have a photo that captures the charm of MVL, we’d love to see it.

P.S. Rent your Halloween Costumes at the Lisbon Library & get ready for Lisbon's Halloweentown on October 31st from 5-7pm!
