June 11th, 2013 Board Meeting Agenda

It was a hot summer-like evening on May 31^st, when my husband and I joined others at the Tappan-Spaulding library front lawn for an evening of music, deliciously cool lemonade, pizza donated by Fortunato’s and wonderful cookies. We found the shade of a tree, someone gave us chairs and we listened, clapped and sang along with Peggi Cella and Keith Nichol’s guitar and keyboard to their soulful songs. There was a book table with wonderfully illustrated children’s books one could donate to the library for $10.00 and place a label in the book for a dedication. Everyone was smiling, talking and listening to the great music as the sun set slowly behind the hills.  Chimney swifts flew and sang over the beautiful library building and I think Lee Roy Tappan was smiling. Thanks to Carol and Vicki and all the hard working volunteers  that make our library so wonderful and give our village events like this. Thank you.

Carrie & Jim Tornatore

cruise in

Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines!! The Depot in Newark Valley, home to the Depot Friday Nights series, is adding a new venture this year, Concours D’Elegance.  Old-time and nearly old-time vehicles are invited to “Cruise- In” to the Depot on the first Saturday of each month from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM starting in June and continuing through September. Opening night will be June 1.  This “Cruise In” is NOT limited only to cars of a particular vintage; if it has wheels and you are proud of it, bring it down!  There is no charge and the public is encouraged to come.  Refreshments will be available–ice cream sundaes and banana splits are the specialty at the Depot. While you are there be sure to tour the 1800s railroad station and caboose. The waiting room is home to a historical review of the history of the wheel and the bicycle, compliments of the Newark Valley Town Historians.  This event promises to be lots of fun as we step back in time to a by-gone era of slower moving conveyances, while mingling with more modern modes of transportation, all the while enjoying the charming atmosphere of an 1800’s railroad depot.
