Catskill Mountain Folk Concert – Oct 21

The Historical Society of Woodstock (HSW) recently presented the sold-out Catskill Mountain Folk Concert at the Christian Science Church on Tinker Street.

The evening spotlighted songs of the Catskills and is a tie-in to the “Woodstock Farming Story” currently running at the HSW. This exceptional evening was a rousing success in terms of money raised and memorable musicianship due to the outstanding generosity of the musicians who donated their talent: John Sebastian, Molly Mason and Jay Ungar, Tim Kapeluck, Julie Last, Steve Charney, Jeff Keithline and Pat Lamanna. 

We are grateful to the Christian Science Church for hosting the event. Thanks go to Roy Sheldon, Violet Snow, and Penny Milford for facilitating the show.

In addition, many thanks go to Steve Charney for emceeing, Jeff Keithline for handling the sound, and stage managers Hank Neimark and Tad Wise. Thanks also go to David Laks for lending the sound equipment.  

In addition, we are incredibly grateful to HSW volunteers Kathy Crost, Richard Heppner, Debbie Heppner, JoAnn Margolis, Terry Lover, Jeff Miller, Jeff Keithline, Pat Lamanna, Letitia Smith, Nikki Hall, Janine Mower, and Bill Horne for helping produce the event. Further, thanks to all who attended for making this, in the words of Jenne Currie, “ a quintessential Woodstock evening.”
