SALEM, NY — The Salem Area Chamber of Commerce will hold its fifth annual HarvestFest Dinner & Barn Dance on Saturday, September 8. Celebrate the end of summer with local food, music, art and activities for the entire family. All events take place at Salem Art Works on Cary Lane from 4pm to 11:00pm. A silent auction will help raise funds for the Chamber’s Crisis Fund, which helps families in the community experiencing a medical crisis.
This year’s celebration, in conjunction with the Washington County Cheese Tour, begins at 4pm with Vendor Fair and Children’s Area offering face painting, games & fun and Cheese Sampling. The fun continues when, at 6:00 pm, a stroll up the barn lane leads you to the music of the award-winning duo of Al and Kathy Bain performing their traditional country, bluegrass and gospel music. The Bains are known for their outstanding vocals and harmonies, with Kathy on upright bass and Al playing a Travis-style guitar and 5-string banjo.
Throughout the Bain’s performance enjoy the “farm to fork” dinner entirely sourced from locally grown food: slow cooked beef and pork from Locust Grove Smokehouse, corn from Sheldon’s Farms, freshly baked Rupert Rising Breads, salads made with produce from Slack Hollow Farm and the Courthouse Community Garden, and (the grand finale) ice cream from Battenkill Valley Creamery with Gardenworks’ famous berry sauce. Beer, wine, water and soda will be available for purchase.
The fun continues with a boot-scootin’ Barn Dance beginning at 9:00 pm. Swing your partner to the country harmonies of The Bluebillies, a 5-piece band from the foothills of the Adirondacks. The Bluebillies feature close-harmony country singing and songwriting duo Melba Deen and Mark Guarino joined by other local noted musicians John Tichy, Dale Haskell and Kevin Maul.
The annual HarvestFest Silent Auction begins at 4pm and benefits the Salem Area Crisis Fund, which helps local people in need with severe medical or accident-related expenses. You’ll find fabulous baskets, gift certificates from local businesses, arts and crafts. Bids close at 8:00 pm.
Admission to 4-6pm activities is free. A combined Dinner/ Barn Dance ticket is $25 per adult; $6 for children under 10; and free for children under 5. Tickets for the Barn Dance only are $10/person or $15/couple. Tickets are on sale at Gardenworks, Salem Hardware, Salem Auto Parts, Jackson Traders, and Glens Falls National Bank – Salem Branch. Tickets are also available in Shushan at TRIP’s Antiques, Garden & Gifts & Yushak’s. All activities are held at Salem Art Works on 19 Cary Lane, off West Broadway in Salem. For more information visit www.salemnychamber.com.
If you are interested in donating to the Silent Auction please contact: Angela Sturgis at 518-854-3335 or [email protected] & Jessica Corey at 518-491-3339 or [email protected] .
