RVGA's 18th Annual Harvest Hoedown

VOLUNTEER (free food and ticket!)

• Our opening musicians are Sean Crimmins and The Broken Heart Strings.
• The Neon Moons return as our musical headliner. Enjoy live music and dancing with fun and engaging two-step instruction from Lauraly (Lo Ryder). Whether you're an expert or a beginner, the dancing is guaranteed to be a lot of fun, even for kids! All of the musicians and Lauraly were amazing last year and we're thrilled to have them join us again!
• Kids will have a great time with activities, including face painting, pumpkin decorating, some live animals, and games.
• We'll have classic, locally sourced Hoedown food, so bring your appetite.
• Our cash bar will offer local craft beer and wine.
• Enjoy our bake sale.
• We're raffling a limited-edition silk scarf from master botanical illustrator, and RVGA member, Wendy Hollender, with imagery drawn from the bounty of New York's Hudson Valley. Each Echo100 scarf is printed on heavyweight silk twill with a hand-rolled hem in a limited edition of 100 individually numbered pieces. Valued at $195, each raffle ticket is only $20! Get your ticket(s) online or at the door. You don't need to be present to win, but you'll miss out on all the fun if you're not at the Harvest Hoedown!
