Another beautiful week in Lake Huntington. We finally got around to going to the Cochecton Pump House this past week and enjoyed the live music, ambience and food! Be sure to check them out on a fair-weather day.

Congratulations to the January SCCC EMT class for successfully getting through their Practical skills. Please note two of Cochecton's Ambulance Corps members, Emily Umbaugh and Hunter Keesler, were among the students in this class.

It’s that time of year again ... time to get yourself ready for the 24th Annual Delaware Youth Center 5K/10K River Run & Walk! This year’s race is scheduled for Sunday, July 24. Not only does the race lead you along the gorgeous Delaware River that lends the youth center its name, it’s also our center’s biggest fundraiser. By signing up, you’re literally running to help us!

You can run a 5K, run a 10K, walk a 5K ... or do it all virtually! Yes, that’s right. The Gary A. Winglovitz Virtual Run allows runners to join us from anywhere. What does that mean? Choose your distance, choose your course, and be part of this great race even if you aren't in Callicoon on July 24 or won't be able to get to the DYC for the 8:30 a.m. start.
