Tarrytown Welcomes the Flotilla 5pm - 6pm
Tarrytown Waterfront, West Main Street Tarrytown
(between Hudson Harbor and the Tarrytown Boat Club, there will be signs)
Join us for a party at the river's edge as we welcome the historic Hudson Fulton Flotilla to Tarrytown. The Clearwater and Mystic Whaler will be docked at the Tarrytown Boat club (next to Striped Bass), the John J Harvey Fireboat, Governor Cleveland Tug and Riverkeeper's teaching boat will be docked at the Hudson Harbor bulkhead. Both the Clearwater and Riverkeeper vessel will be welcoming visitors aboard, come and learn about their ecological work and the history of "America's First River".
At 6:00pm our party really gets underway with a performance from Zydegroove, playing their brand of infectious Lousianna Zydeco, a rich musical gumbo derived from Creole, Cajun, French, Caribbean and Scotch/Irish residents of the port city of New Orleans. The lively call-and-response style, driven by rhythmic accordion, is guaranteed to inspire dancing and good times for young and old. There will be food available at the waterfront and a shuttle to ferry people up to the many wonderful restaurants on Main Street.
The evening will close with fireworks at dusk. They will be launched from the GM site and visible from both villages.
