Off and On

As typical, remembering to post to the blog is not my forte. So many things have been taking place in the last month that I don't know where to begin.

I have been talking quite extensively with Pasty Costello of the Hyde Park Historical Society. Her knowledge of Hyde Park, past and present, is significant and I hope to be working with them more in the next few weeks. I understand that there is a file full of photos that need to be archived and I hope to help with that effort.

Last week I spoke with Steven Mann and Stephanie Mauri at the Dutchess County Historical Society. In talking with them, I got a understanding of Hyde Park and Staatsburg as it relates to Dutchess County. They have also are willing to provide support and put me in touch with their members. I look forward to this association.

Finally, this past Saturday was my first day at the Hyde Park Farmers Market. I will now be spending my Saturday mornings meeting and talking with people there instead of at the Library. This will be a much more public way of connecting with the community.
