While the demise (again) of Liberty's Munson Diner is making sad news today in the New York Times, there are plenty of more hopeful things afoot in Sullivan County as well. A couple of upcoming events for those interested in making Sullivan County a nicer place:
1. The Great Sullivan County Foodraiser this Saturday at four different venues -- which, from the poster above, looks like it's going to be a foot-stomping good time. (Hat tip to the Zinc Plate Press blog for the notice.)
2. Sullivan Renaissance's community meeting to discuss ongoing revitalization efforts in Monticello, to be held at the Monticello Fire House on Sunday, February 13. From the Catskill Chronicle:
“Now is the time Sullivan Renaissance would like to encourage residents to come together, share their ideas and participate in specific beautification efforts in Monticello to further compliment efforts already being realized” said Sandra Gerry, who chairs Sullivan Renaissance. “Spring will be here soon and we need to be ready to start planning and planting!”
Copies of the NYSDOT landscaping plans for Broadway will be on display, along with renderings of the decorative street lamps that are slated for installation beginning in the spring.
