SILENT AUCTION ITEMS HERE

The Catskill Mountain Club will hold its popular annual dinner on Saturday, September 27th at Bluestone Restaurant at the Delhi College Golf Course. 

A cocktail hour with hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar will begin at 4:00 pm.  Please come early so that you can catch up with fellow club members on the outdoor patio. The buffet dinner will feature Kalbi Flank Steak, Citrus Glazed Salmon, and Slow Roasted Portabella Mushroom.

We will be featuring a state-of-the-club presentation, as well as a short film, The Story of The Bramley Mountain Fire Tower which focuses on the history and the reconstruction of the tower.

New Trail Challenge awards will be presented to all those in attendance who have earned the All Trails, Catskills Grid/420, and Catskills 4 Seasons/140. The Outstanding Event Leader Award will be presented to legendary Catskills hiker Marv Freedman.

The dinner will again include a silent auction for a wide array of items donated by local businesses and club members. The auction items include outdoor equipment, artwork, restaurant gift certificates, cooking classes, vacation rentals, and more. You will almost certainly find items that you need or desire, and all the proceeds from the auction will benefit the CMC.

 If you have any questions about the dinner, please contact John Sandman at sandmajm@gmail.com.

CMC Helps Organize Another Successful 5K

For the second year, the Bovina 5K Run, Walk, and Kids Run attracted upwards of 200 participants. More than $4700 was raised to support the restoration of the Bovina Playground. This event illustrates a place-based approach: the community unites around its assets and highlights these for others to enjoy and support. These assets include a riverwalk, hiking trails, a vintage baseball field, and a pavilion – thanks to the work of the Livestock Foundation – and the entire hamlet of Bovina Center is on the State and National Register of Historic Places. Along with Livestock, CMC partnered with numerous motivated volunteers and several key entities. For more info, please see the PRESS RELEASE.

The Bramley Mountain Fire Tower continues to be open on the weekends through October 13. Fire tower stewards will enable visitors to ascend the tower on weekends. For more info please visit Friends of the Bramley Mountain Fire Tower website (and related Facebook page) for the schedules as the weather gets warmer.
