Hudson Valley Vegans

The Renegades baseball club approached us offering a vegan dinner and game ticket for $36 per person. We will have a special area for both dining and viewing the game at 6 pm on Wednesday, July 28. If you love baseball, you may see a future Yankees star. For those who may not be so into the game, it will still be an enjoyable social evening. We have guaranteed the club 25 attendees but can take more There are over 600 of you who belong to this Meetup, please consider supporting their Vegan Outreach. Please reserve as soon as possible so that we know we have reached at least 25. Payment can be made by check or thru Venmo. Details will be sent to those who RSVP.

Hi Hudson Valley Vegans,

Three weeks from today Hudson Valley Vegans will have a Vegan Dinner at The Hudson Valley Renegades Stadium on Route 9 D. Wednesday, July 28 at 6 pm. The Renegades reached out to us with the offer and we want to show them that vegan food is desired and appreciated. Their minimum guarantee is 25 people and we are still 5 people short. I am not inclined to begging and pleading, but, please, could a few of you (we have over 600 people on our email and Meetup sites) step up to the bat (weak joke) and join us for this event? $36 for dinner and game ticket.

We have a private area for both eating and watching the game. If you are a baseball fan – this evening is for you. If not so much, those who would rather watch less and socialize more can move to the back without disturbing others. Please let us show them that vegan food at the ballpark is desired and appreciated.

What is on the menu, you ask? I am working with the food service person and you can expect vegan versions of summer casual dining favorites, burgers and dogs, potato salad, baked beans – as soon as we finalize it, I will send it out.

To RSVP, email: [masked]. You may pay by sending a check, made out to Hudson Valley Vegans to: Roberta Schiff-

16 South Street- Rhinebeck NY-12572

We no longer have our PO Box – the double junk mail was too much to deal with.
