This year we are proud to present our 7th annual East Fishkill Rombout Colonial Days Weekend on Saturday, September 27th and Sunday, September 28th. We are fortunate to have been the recipient of a grant from the Dutchess County government to present this event as a part of Dutchess County Rev 250, which is a partnership between the Dutchess County Government, the Dutchess County Historians office, and our local town historical societies here in Dutchess County. This immersive event will encourage visitor participation, with many hands-on activities being available. This year we will be joined by our history colleagues from Beacon, Fishkill, Lagrange, the Town of Wappinger, Mount Gullian and the Melzingah Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, who will be sharing information about their own organizations.
