Weekend Event Guide (Aug 1 & 2)

On Saturday, join lecture hosts Dr. Johnson and Michael Robinson for an entertaining and educational look at how the Revolutionary War played out in our area. Dr. Johnson, an avid Revolutionary War re-enactor, will lecture in period attire, and discuss the encampments at West Point and Constitution Island; the North and South Redoubts in Garrison; and the Fishkill Supply Depot and Encampment, located under the mostly-abandoned Dutchess Mall on Route 9, just north of Cold Spring.
 
Saturday night, enjoy a performance of the Philipstown Depot Theatre’s presentation of “A Chorus Line”.   Or, how about dinner and live music at Four Brothers Restaurant in Mahopac as it presents, An American Music Festival featuring a 4-Course Sit-Down Dinner and music from ‘The Singing Sax’.  Also on Saturday night, the Doansburg Chamber Ensemble will be performing their trio of piano, flute and cello at St Mary-in-the-Highlands.
