We’re giving ourselves the week off from a full-length newsletter, but there’s so much happening in the mid-Hudson Valley right now that we still wanted to share an events listing.
If you’re scrolling while nap-trapped, check out our favorite Hudson Valley spots (with dozens of bonus recs for paid subscribers), the illustrated dads who make us blush, and back-to-school shopping ideas.
We’ll be back next Thursday with an interview all about our favorite topic — childcare.
-Maddie, Ashley, and Genevieve
We live in the Mid-Hudson Valley and we’re keeping tabs on these (mostly family-friendly) events near us. If there’s another event you’d like us to share, reply to this newsletter as an email or send us a DM.
