Bring you own wine or beer if desired. Dessert is on us - we are doing a vegan dessert contest, so, if you wish, bring a vegan dessert with your recipe. 25 is about all the cafe will hold, so reservations are a must. 845.876.2626 or rsvp@mhvs.org.
Join the VanAlstines, Nancy Gordon, Luella Winne, RobinHenderson and Nate Williams and others in attending this event.
There is a great event coming up that would be wonderful for MHVS members to attend, we could march with a banner and have some fun.
There are Metro North trains that go right to the parade location, round trip is about $25 (from Poughkeepsie)
Please RSVP to rockinrobin0705@gmail.com if you are interested in attending this as a group with MHVS. We do not have to go and leave at the same time but it would be more of an "event" if we did :) More plans for dinner and or lunch can be made once there is an idea of who would be going.Saturday June 28 - 12-6 PM
MHVS will be preparing and selling food at the Catskill Animal Sanctuary's Annual Shindig. This is a wonderful event where you can tour the sanctuary, meet the animals, staff and volunteers, hear good music and speakers and support them further by buying our delicious veggie wraps, pasta salad and desserts galore. Many volunteers need to do this right.RSVP to all events by calling 845.876.2626 or send us an e-mail rsvp@mhvs.org
We look forward to
hearing from you
