Dear Supervisor;
I as a town resident and a member of the board for the
Sports Museum of Dutchess County which is a tenant at
your Carnwath Farms Reese Cultural Center, have been looking
into many ways to bring local and county residents to visit this
beautiful complex. I have taken the liberty to speak to the
Southern Dutchess County Chamber (Ann Meagher) about
holding a chamber breakfast in the chapel. Ms. Meagher
and I have agreed this would be doable and has assigned a
potential date of May 5th 2010. The Chamber would be
responsible for setting up the event and all that would be required
by the town is to use the facility and you or a town official be
the welcoming host.
As another means of gaining exposure for Carnwath, and
being chairman of the Wappinger Greenway Trail Committee I
would like to suggest you and the Town Board consider inviting
the Albany Greenway Council and Conservancy to hold
one of their quarterly meetings at Carnwath. This brings with it
a lot of political exposure at local, county, state levels and I believe it
would create a lasting impression on those in attendance, which
could be very beneficial in gaining future grants. This process
would require the Town to provide the facility, tables, chairs and
breakfast items (ex; coffee, tea, juices, beagles, Danish ).
In the interest of making these events happen I would be
only to happy to help anyone you may assign from your office,
if you and the town board consider either or both are viable
projects for Carnwath.
