SCREAMIN' EAGLES

Welcome in. This puppy is jam packed. Hope you enjoy and I’ll see ya out there.

I have an idea (yeah, another one)… Catskill Crew should sponsor a youth sports team. I humbly suggest the name: The Screamin’ Eagles.

If this gets approved, we’ll host some gatherings to see our team take the field, the rink, the court, or wherever they may play. Also, if you have any leads or know of any leagues that can use our support, drop it in the comments after you cast your vote.

Twas great to see everyone at the Seed Swap over the weekend. I went home with a bounty of seeds and plants — from Abenaki corn, to a money tree, purple irises, Autumn Frost squash, and more.

Send me photos of your gardens as they grow — and massive shout-out to Hudson Valley Seed Co. for the incredible donation, West Kill Supply for hosting, and our Head Gardener Sandy (pictured above, beaming).

Open call for any professors, educators, or subject matter experts to present at a future Social Studies event. Apply here.

TL;DR on Social Studies: We’re partnering up with local experts, then settling in at a fine local establishment for a short lecture on topics ranging from history, to nature, and beyond. We learn new things, meet new people, and get out into the real world where we belong.

TOGETHER WITH RIVER VALLEY BAROQUE

A huge congratulations to the winner of our River Valley Baroque giveaway: Noah K., you just won yourself TWO PREMIER TICKETS to Bach’s St. John Passion.

Everyone else: this is your last call to get tickets to experience a rarely-heard version of one of the greatest pieces of music ever written, by one of the greatest composers in history, performed by internationally acclaimed artists on 18th-century instruments. So, yeah, no big deal. Hope to see you there. Hear the viola da gamba.

The next Catskill Crew Dinner Club is locked in for April 2nd at 6:30 PM in RHINEBECK.

HOW IT WORKS:

✦︎ Take a quick quiz about your interests, food preferences, and what types of folks you are looking to meet — you know, that kinda thing.

✦︎ Get matched with five other Catskill Crew Members based on the quiz results.

✦︎ Receive your invite the morning of the dinner and discover which restaurant in your group you’ll be eating at.

✦︎ During dinner, everyone will be receive a notification with the secret location of an afterparty to keep the good times rolling. This is optional, so if you’re in a food coma, you can go home and sleep it off.

TOGETHER WITH PINK’S

Spring has arrived my good people. It’s time to schedule the clean and get your home in tip-top shape. Brush off the cobwebs, get those windows sparkling, empty out the gutters, and get the deck ready for grill season.

There’s no better team to get the job done than the great folks at Pink’s. They show up when they say they will and they do the work that has earned them hundreds of 5 star reviews.
