Dear Residents –
On Sunday evening, our friends of the Jewish faith will begin their eight-day celebration of the Festival of Lights, known to the rest of the world as Hanukkah (or Chanukah). In celebration, the Chabad of the Nyacks will be holding three menorah lighting ceremonies:
1. Sunday, December 18th at 4:00 pm at the gazebo on the corner of Cedar and Main Street, Nyack;
2. Monday, December 19th at 6:00 pm at Piermont Village Hall, Piermont; and,
3. Wednesday, December 21st at 6:00 pm at Braunsdorf Park, Pearl River.
Everyone is welcome, so please feel free to attend one or more of the ceremonies and celebrate the lighting of the menorah with your Orangetown friends and neighbors.
In case you missed Santa and friends this past weekend, you have two more opportunities to see him this Saturday, December 17, 2022. The Blauvelt Ladies Auxiliary is hosting a holiday party at the Blauvelt Fire House from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm and Santa will be making a special appearance. Then Santa is dashing over on his sled to the Holiday Drive-Thru at the Tappan Volunteer Fire Department from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm.
There have been questions about what is happening to the property on Middletown Road in Pearl River where the fire took place last year. I am happy to report that the owner has filed an application to rebuild. The plans include both Dunkin’ Donuts and Dollar General. The gun shop has moved to another location and will not be returning. If all goes well, we will see construction starting this spring.
Enjoy your weekend everyone!
Regards,
