Pumpkin Festival in Beacon (free!)

We're checking out the Beacon Sloop Club Pumpkin Festival!

We'll meet at Pete & Toshi Seeger Park in Beacon when the event starts at noon.

From the website of the organizers:

Two solar powered music stages, one dedicated for young folks (children) to enjoy, will provide live music throughout the day. Numerous food and craft vendors will be on hand. Environmental non-profits will feature displays of local river history and the environment including information about their organization. Families can enjoy many free activities for children in addition to the dedicated children’s stage.

Guests can enjoy the day surrounded by the majestic Hudson River.

The Beacon Sloop Club’s boat, the Woody Guthrie, will be taking guests on free sails from the Beacon Harbor, weather permitting. The public may sign up for an afternoon sail to relax and experience the beauty, power and grandeur of the Hudson. Sign up at the Beacon Sloop Club table starting at noon.
