What’s Up Peekskill? April Showers, May Flowers

Leave a comment

Come and celebrate the end of April showers this weekend. There’s lots going on to usher in May and all it’s glorious flowers. Lots of our local musicians are playing in town, or you can sing your own on Karaoke nights, hone your trivia skills, drink zany mocktail cocktails, or drink lots of wine. Lots of wine — did you see that? 50 new wines? Golly! So come on down and rock it, Peekskill!

What’s Up Peekskill? Breaking into Spring

Leave a comment

“There’s an old saying in Tennessee — I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.”
― George W. Bush

We hope you fooled some folks for April and are gearing up for a fun-filled Spring Break. The season seems to finally be upon us to get out and have a good time.
