THE JOHN SCOTT ARMCHAIR WALKING TOURS – FALL, 2010
The opening September program, “A VIRTUAL WALKING TOUR THROUGH HISTORIC TAPPAN,” will be presented by Janet and Gil Galloway. The Galloways have resided in Tappan for over 44 years, and among their many other accomplishments, are professional videographers. They will escort us on a virtual walking tour of their historic village, including the sites of British spy John Andre’s trial, imprisonment, and hanging; the De Witt house, the oldest building in Rockland County and which was often used by General George Washington as his headquarters; the Tappan Dutch Reformed Church; the Yost Mobie House where the Orangetown Resolutions were adopted on July 4, 1774, and several other significant sites associated with the American Revolution.
The program will be presented first at the Nyack Center on Wednesday evening, Sept. 29 at 7:30 PM and will be repeated the following afternoon, Thursday, Sept. 30 at 2:00 PM
