Last week’s annual Fourth Grade History Tour of Sloatsburg saw students trek through the village visiting sites such as the Sloatsburg United Methodist Chapel, Sloat House & Inn, the Sloats Dam and Brown’s Gate, and the Jacob Sloat House.

The tour was capped by Visitors Day, where community members discussed local history and how it’s importance in shaping the Sloatsburg community.

(The 4th grade annual history day included visits to the elementary school from Sloatsburg Mayor Carl Wright and Sloatsburg Village Clerk Thomas Bollatto, Jr., Rockland County and Village of Suffern Historian Craig Long, and Harmony Hall Curator Geoff Welch)

Sloatsburg Elementary School parents and teachers congregated last Tuesday evening for the annual art show.
