Millbrook

MILLBROOK— Dry, cool, and with a hint of autumn in the air, Millbrook’s annual Community Day featured good food, lots of fun, friendly people and dogs galore.
Saturday, Sept. 8, was a great day for young and old as they strolled along Franklin Avenue, Front Street and beyond. There was a lot to see and do, and it seemed as if everybody enjoyed the day.
Hula hooping was fun to do and watch, as all shapes and sizes of hula hoops, and people, spun around on the library lawn. For the more serious minds, children’s books were given away on the lawn.

MILLBROOK — The Rotary luncheon meeting on Wednesday, Aug. 22, not only featured a meal at Copperfields Restaurant, but a presentation by Judith Muir, and a short but sweet group singalong with the lilting words and tune of “Sweet Adeline.”
Muir, a widely renowned musician who is also an educator, works her magic at The Institute for Music and Health (IMH).At the Institute, she is director of programs. Her many years of teaching — more than 40 to be exact — enables her to teach students and help them achieve great success in their endeavors.

MILLBROOK— A new year will be starting soon at the Millbrook Central School District, and there will be several changes and new practices put into play.
Many of those issues were discussed at the Board of Education (BOE) meeting last week. 
A contract with the Altaris Capital Partners, LLC was discussed, expected to impact the safety and security of all four schools. 

MILLBROOK — The building at 5 Washington Ave., Millbrook, was vacant only a few short months before Rocco’s became Julien’s — and the pizza ovens were turned back on. But, as new owners Jean Paul Plant and his wife, Kay Vanderlyn, are quick to point out, this is a whole new restaurant.
Both trained at the Culinary Institute of America; their menu is varied. Named after their son, Julien, they offer much more than standard Italian fare.
