Keep The Good Things Happening
Meet Our Board
The Enfield Village Association Board is a working board comprised of volunteers from within our community dedicated to "keeping the good things happening" in our beautiful and charming town. Each of the members brings their own unique skillset and passion to the board giving us an effective team of "doers".
President, 2001 - Present
C. Harrison Trumbull
Harry grew up in Hanover working in the family hardware store. After selling the business in 1988, he invested in rental properties in Lebanon and Hanover. In addition to his business experience, Harry brings a lifetime of property investment, management, and renovation expertise to the EVA board. Since childhood, he has spent every summer on Mascoma Lake, the family property eventually passing to Harry in 1977. The Trumbull's moved to Enfield full time in 2007, and slowly renovated the old “camp” into a year-round home. The Trumbull family connection to Enfield spans five generations. Harry is
working with EVA hoping to leave a vibrant and inviting community for future generations to enjoy.
(Folks frequently ask if he owns Trumbull-Nelson. His grandfather founded the company, but Harry has no connection to it, other than being pleased the owners have maintained its good reputation.)

Vice President
Julie Eckert
Initially raised in a small New England town, with a fierce sense of the importance for supporting "local". I am a Mover (not a Shaker) having lived in 17 different states and visited every single one. I have witnessed good planning and not so good ideas. After years of volunteer work and part time jobs while raising a family, with a whole lot of event planning, I returned to school for a Master's in Public Administration. Economic Development to me means building a healthy and inclusive community for residents and businesses now and for the future. It is not a "my job" but " our job" to build a sustainable community.

Treasurer, 2019 - Present
Maynard Southard
Always a hands-on guy, Maynard and a buddy bought a small run-down 100 year-old metal stamping company in western Massachusetts in 1997. A summer cabin on Crystal Lake was a getaway for his family during many of those hard working years. Maynard and Betsy made the full-time move to Enfield in 2014, after Betsy retired and the kids finished college. After 23 years of managing all aspects of a small manufacturing business, he and his partner sold the company in 2019. Maynard coached youth basketball for 10 years and is a regular at the scorer’s table for Mascoma & Hanover High and Dartmouth College basketball games. He’s been active in town, serving on the Enfield Municipal Facilities Advisory Committee and the Enfield Master Planning Task Force, in addition to serving as Treasurer of the Enfield Village Association since 2019.
