Dear Residents –
It is hard to believe that we are already in the last days of October. With only 27 days to Thanksgiving, that means that Chanukah, Christmas, Kwanza and the end of 2022 are all right around the corner. And, just like that, I will be starting my 4th year as your Town Supervisor. Boy, time really does fly!
But before we get too far ahead of ourselves, we don’t want to leave out the spookiest holiday of all, Halloween. And don't forget that the Nyack Chamber of Commerce will be hosting their annual parade on Saturday, October 29th, the Pearl River Chamber of Commerce will host their annual Trick or Treat on Central Avenue from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm on Halloween (click here for details), and that the Orangeburg Volunteer Fire Department will have their parade on Monday evening.
Unfortunately, it also means that we are only 55 days away from the official start of winter, a good time to start preparing your home for the cold weather. Not sure what to do? Consider servicing your heating system or replacing the air filters in the furnace for maximum efficiency. You can also check windows and doors for drafts and caulk where necessary to keep heat from escaping. For more steps that you can take to prepare your home for the winter, check out this link.
As a reminder, early voting starts this Saturday, October 29, and runs through November 6. You can vote at any Town Hall, at the Fire Training Center or Pascack Community Center. Hours vary day to day, so please check before you go. Election Day is at your usual poll site on November 8, from 6 am to 9 pm. I know that it’s crazy that I still have to say this, but please get out and exercise your Constitutional right to vote.
Wishing one of my favorite staff members, Carmel Reilly, a great run in the Dublin Marathon this Sunday!
Enjoy your Halloween, no matter what age you are.
Regards,
