Plans are underway for this summer’s Music in the Park on Saturday evenings from 6 pm to 9 pm at the River Street Park in Morrisonville. All concerts are free – bring lawn chairs or blankets and enjoy time with family, friends, and neighbors. Food and soft drinks will be available for purchase.

Concerts will start Saturday June 24 and continue through the end of the summer. We have a great line-up so far and are looking for a few more groups to perform. Volunteers always appreciated to help set-up, clean-up and assist with the food prep, cook, serve.

If you would like to perform at, or help with the events, or sponsor one or more events in this series, send an email to historian@schuylerfallsny.com or supervisor@schuylerfallsny.com or contact Kevin or Barb at the town hall, 518-563-1129.

Only a few months until Music in the Park in the town of Schuyler Falls !!!

This year, 2023, marks the 175th anniversary of the Town of Schuyler Falls as a township. The New York State legislature, on April 4, 1848, ‘erected’ the town as separate from the town of Plattsburgh. Parts of the town were settled much earlier – by 1794 on the Salmon River, and by the early 1800’s all along the Saranac River and the areas nearby.

To celebrate this milestone, many events are being planned throughout this anniversary year. From Friday August 11 through Sunday August 20, will be a big part of the commemoration, with a parade on Saturday August 12, festival at the town hall and parks, presentations, demonstrations, and ceremonies. A commemorative booklet is planned with history, business listings and more.

Details & planning meetings are being scheduled for mid-late March. Volunteers and ideas are needed. To participate, contribute or assist, email the town historian’s office at historian@schuylerfallsny.com or leave a message at 518-563-1129, x 8 or x1-4547.
