Copake Library gala returns June 25

HILLSDALE — After being on hiatus for two years due to the pandemic, the Roeliff Jansen Community Library’s Gala returns this year from 5 to 7 pm on Saturday, June 25, in a new location, the Catamount Lodge at Catamount Mountain Resort, 78 Catamount Road in Hillsdale.

Food trucks will serve a selection of wood-fired pizzas, Korean-style tacos, savory rice balls, gelato and espresso.

Attendees will be able to enjoy wine and local craft beer, and those so inclined can dance to live music from local favorites, the Bash Bish Bluegrass Band, all to help ensure that the library can continue providing materials and services to the Roeliff Jansen community.

The gala raises a substantial portion of the library’s annual operating budget each year.
