“Turning Leaves
at the Turning
Point” in
Schuylerville
The 2nd Annual Schuylerville Fall Festival: “Turning Leaves
at the Turning Point”, will be held on Sunday, October 8 from
12:00-5:00 pm. Visitors are invited to this beautiful, historic,
thriving downtown to experience the fun and excitement of
this close-knit community. There will be a scavenger hunt for
participants to follow to encourage them to visit their local
businesses and engage with the business owners. Along the
way you can enjoy street musicians and delicious local food
vendors. Restaurants and store fronts will be open, and artists
will be demonstrating their skills. Boaters are encouraged to
dock at the Schuyler Yacht Basin for the weekend and enjoy
the shoreside events as well!
The scavenger hunt will begin downtown at any
participating business and will end at the Schuylerville
Public Library, where a flurry of Fall-inspired activities will
also be in full swing. After completing the scavenger hunt,
participants will be entered into a small business raffle for
the chance to win goodies and gift certificates from our
wonderful local businesses.
The music schedule and complete food and artisan vendor
list will be announced soon!
Hudson Crossing Park will be hosting the Burgoyne’s
Bridge 5k on the morning of October 8. Info is
