  Mayor’s Message [Cornwall-on-Hudson Special Events Edition]:

  Dear Village of Cornwall-on-Hudson residents,

  This Saturday evening, June 15^th, the Cornwall-on-Hudson Special Events committee will be featuring the hit Broadway spectacular, “Hamilton,” as their first 2024 “Movies on the Hudson” offering at Donahue Memorial Park. This will also serve as a fundraiser for the Cornwall Independence Day committee. Attendees will have opportunities to help effort by taking advantage of various culinary offerings, as well as available adult libations. The production will be shown on our 30’ screen shortly after dark. But come early to park and secure a good seat.

  HUGE shout-out and debt of gratitude to the two plank holders of Cornwall-on-Hudson Special Events, Mike Trainor and Dominic Cordisco. Their vision and “elbow grease” have served as the margin of victory for so many fun events since the committee’s humble beginnings in 2016. This year’s committee includes Regina Shaver, Lori Beth Paliotta, Buffy Heldt, Sarah Creagan, Sally Hildebrand, and Tiffany Gagliano. We all recognize the names of these tremendous volunteers. Without Mike and Dominic and this next generation of visionaries and dedicated and committed volunteers, there would be no spectacular events for all of us to enjoy in our wonderful village. We’d be remiss in failing to mention the Sherpa-like work of Charlie Quinn, Sr. (and Jr.), Tommy Trainor and the inestimable volunteer, Drew Quimby. These guys make it happen.

  Mark your calendars as upcoming events include: Cornwall Youth Committee (CYC) sponsored “Barbie” movie event at Donahue Memorial Park (DMP) on July 5^th, a Jimmy Buffet tribute concert on August 24^th (also at DMP), the Donahue Farm Oktoberfest Movie and Music event on September 21^st, the October 5^th CYC-sponsored Color Bash Run (held in both Village and Town), the Halloween-themed movie event on October 26^th at the SKE2 firehouse, and the annual New Year’s Eve Ball Drop event in Village Square at midnight (with the Junior Ball Drop to be held at 6:00 p.m.). Lots to look forward to due to our incredible volunteer cadre.

  Hope we see you on Saturday evening for “Hamilton,” along with some historic 16mm video footage of Cornwall’s Fourth of July parades from bygone eras. You won’t want to miss that or the film “intro” featuring two of your favorite local D-List actors. You might recognize them.

  On behalf of your Village Board,

  James A. “Jimmy” Gagliano

Location is the Donahue Farm Property at 42 Bayview Avenue in the Village of Cornwall-on-Hudson. There is ZERO cost to participate. The route will take you from farm property up Hudson Street, around the bandstand in Village Square, and back to the farm. Volunteers will help out along the way to provide “color” to all the runners. There will be food available from a number of local vendors, a DJ, and live music provided by the Frozen Peaz. You can pre-register for the run via your cellphone scanning of the QR code on the event flyer.

  Please stick around for the Cornwall-on-Hudson Special Events Committee’s outdoor showing of the Barbie movie. Original scheduled date was postponed due to inclement weather. This will be our penultimate outdoor movie experience offering of year. Movie begins around 6:30 p.m.
