Take a step back in time at the Free Public Historic Property Tours on Sunday, Oct. 10 from 1 to 4 p.m.
See the Shingle House Complex, 7 - 9 Forester Avenue, with the Lehigh and Hudson River Railway Caboose, circa 1909, the Sly Barn with the permanent agriculture exhibit, a tribute to the incredible agriculture industry in Orange County, and the ongoing archaeological dig site, where the team of volunteers has been unearthing the story of the property for 8 years. View a collection of 19th century artifacts at the Ketchum House, 26 Church Street, and talk with local historians as they share the stories of the people and circumstances who helped shape the Town of Warwick. Families are welcome! Donations are appreciated. Call 845-986-3236 for more information.
