Please join us for an afternoon dedicated to discuss and reflect on the 140 year Jewish tradition in Tannersville, New York. Dr. Gary Lelonek, author of "The Jewish History of Tannersville, New York," will lead us through the development of the Jewish community in Tannersville. Beginning in the early 1900's when "Tannersville was the vacation home to Jewish leaders and sports legends as well as the setting for Jewish organizational meetings pivotal to the development in America and Israel." Through the 20th century as the village became a hub for learning and spiritualty. And today there is still a "thriving Jewish Summer community." This event will be held at the Ulster and Delaware Train Station on the Mountain Top Historical Society campus, 5132 RT. 23A, Haines Falls. Kosher refreshments to follow.
