Woodstock Film Fest Party

WFF Raffle at the 3/1/12 Party

Everyone had a great time at the March 1st Woodstock Chamber mixer, hosted by the Woodstock Film Festival. Chief topic of discussion: welcoming visitors to the 2012 WFF, October 10 to 14, with community-wide special events and offers. No doubt about it . . . with all of Woodstock joining in, the 13th annual WFF will be the best one yet!

Our thanks to the entire Woodstock Film Festival team for their hospitality, and to Judy Steinfeld of Villas in Woodstock for providing the refreshments.

When in Woodstock, be sure to drop by the WFF offices at 13 Rock City Road. Present your Experience Woodstock Card for 10% off all merchandise at the WFF store. 

Fall for Woodstock

Fall has begun and there's plenty to do in Woodstock!

The 12th annual, fiercely independent Woodstock Film Festival took place from Wednesday, September 21 through Sunday, September 25. If you missed this year's fest, you can catch up on highlights and order merchandise at www.woodstockfilmfestival.com.

Tomorrow (October 1) is the launch of the 8th annual Lark in the Park—10 days of outdoor activities in the Woodstock and Catskill Park region. According to Steve Berg, president of the Catskill Mountain Club, “We’re excited to offer the [Lark] this year for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the almost insurmountable odds we faced to do anything at all in the wake of tropical storms Irene and Lee.  The Lark has been running since the 100th anniversary of the Catskill Park in 2004.”

Berg continues, “This year, despite the flood damage, we are pleased to present 40+ events throughout the Park and neighboring counties.  These activities appeal to adults and kids and range from fly-fishing instruction to hiking; backpacking advice and a lecture on walking in old Woodstock.  We’re even planning to offer golf lessons! For a complete listing of the Lark’s events, which run through Columbus Day (Monday, October 10), click on www.catskillslark.org.
