All set up and ready for you to visit us at Town Day!

Developing Roaring Brook Lake was very carefully planned community…even down to acknowledging the entrance at Pudding Street would be a very dangerous area. It only took 70+ years to build the overpass mentioned in the letter from the Taconic State Park Commission. #putnamvalleyhistory #taconicstateparkway #roaringbrooklakeny

Found in a box of papers “from the study of Israel Ben Scheiber” in the attic of the schoolhouse was an architectural rendering of the new central (now the elementary) school and photos of the groundbreaking, time capsule, construction and classrooms in use in 1935. There was plenty of other things in the box, but these seemed quite timely with the new school year fast approaching.

Join us for a fun afternoon in the park on Sunday October 17th!

Please visit our website above for information about the Smith House house and the beginning of an effort to save it. It’s among (if not the oldest) in Putnam Valley and Putnam County. #historicpreservation #historichouse #localhistory #putnamvalleyhistory

Getting our ducks in a row so we can welcome visitors again. It’s no easy task! These five feathered friends are a recent donation from a home on Lake Oscawana. #putnamvalleyhistory
