The Armonk Chamber’s winning formula for a fun-filled day: Jamie’s Run for Love, Byram HillsPreschool Association Children’s Carnival, and an old fashioned Cider and Donut festival. Based in Wampus Brook Park, the annual festival is a perfect setting for all of the activities. Making fresh cider and donuts in the park brings back parent’s memories and has already begun creating new memories for generations. “But after the band, the food, the run, the most fun still goes to those brave kids and parents who will throw away their inhibitions and diets and go full throttle into the pie eating contest,” said the Chamber’s Schwartz.

Horace Greeley High School will recognize the Chappaqua Central School district’s 90th Anniversary during ‘Homecoming’ weekend Friday, September 14th through Saturday, September 15th. In September 1928, Chappaqua School District opened on the site of Robert E. Bell Middle School, serving grades K-12. In 1957, grades 9-12 were relocated to its present site, in its current configuration.
The weekend will kick-off with the Varsity Volleyball Team playing Arlington in the Main Gym at 4:30 p.m. Food trucks, a Spirit Walk including decades worth of Greeley memorabilia and spirited activities organized by student clubs will open to the community at 5 p.m. There are rumblings that the ever-popular dunk tank may return to add to the excitement. The evening will cap off with Friday Night Lights as Greeley Varsity Football faces Walter Panas High School on the Greeley Competition Field at 7 p.m. This year the team welcomes Joe Kearns, Varsity head coach. Be on the lookout for future Quakers taking the field at halftime. The band, cheerleaders and vocal group (tba) will bring on the school spirit throughout the evening.
