RFP for Landscape Work for Town Park, Pine Plains, New York

Project Representative: Town Beautification Committee Contact: Suzanne C. Ouellette, Suzanne.ouellette293@gmail.com

P.O. Box 409, Pine Plains, New York

Design Program: The town of Pine Plains is seeking bids for landscape work to improve the appearance, usefulness, and social benefit of our small town park at the corner of Routes 199 and 82, in the center of Pine Plains.

Key parts of the program are:

(1) The selection and installation of a large and slow growing evergreen tree that will serve as the centerpiece for our annual Holiday Parade of Lights event. It replaces a tree that needed to be taken down because it had gotten too big for the site. The tree needs to be approximately 12 to 14 feet in height.

(2) The addition of a cherry tree to the northeast section of the park (near the barber shop). This will join the two existing cherry trees now in the park. The new tree should be compatible with those, probably with a caliper of 4 to 4.5 inches.

(3) The installation of four perennial beds as shown on site map.

(4) Installation of three shrub groupings - between new cherry tree and barber shop building, to left and right of park entrance at south west corner of park

(5) For all of the above, proper preparation of soil with screened topsoil, compost, and mulch (all delivered)

 (6) Laying down of sod for open areas in the park plan

Sarah Margaret Paul

Sarah Margaret Paul

CORNWALL — Sarah Margaret Paul, July 2, 1936 – October 3, 2026.

As you read this obituary, please do so in the lovely British accent our mother, Sarah Paul retained all her life. But don’t be fooled by this posh exterior: mom preferred simple LL Bean shirts and pants, chain-sawed her own trees, and could change a back bicycle tire. She grew up under the class and gender strictures of mid-twentieth century England, warned away from anything remotely risky or “unladylike” by her mother, which led her to believe all her life that she lacked courage.

Cornwall Historical Society celebrates Connecticut’s Black patriots

Cornwall Historical Society celebrates Connecticut’s Black patriots

On Saturday, Oct. 24, at the Cornwall Historical Society, author and genealogist John Mills will breathe new life into the stories of some of Connecticut’s more underappreciated patriots. The reason these heroes were forgotten? They were Black.

At a time when white colonists were fighting for their own liberty and political independence, many Black men who fought alongside them remained enslaved. Some risked their lives only to return to bondage. Though enslaved people were promised freedom from both sides of the Revolutionary War in exchange for their service, Great Britain, too, was still deeply dependent on slavery. For Black people in America, the war presented both extraordinary risks and uncertain paths to the freedom that white colonists were demanding for themselves.

A sanctuary for second chances

Stephanie Saetta runs Charlie Chicken Bones, a sanctuary in Salisbury.

Madi Long
You only get one or two of these soul connection dogs, so I do this in his honor.
— Stephanie Saetta

Stephanie Saetta has spent much of her life caring for others. A physician at White Plains Hospital, she has another calling at home in Salisbury — one that has four legs and a wagging tail. She runs Charlie Chicken Bone Sanctuary, a nonprofit dog rescue that brings dogs from overcrowded pounds and the streets of Texas to foster homes in northwestern Connecticut, where they can begin again.

The sanctuary is named for Charlie, the dog who taught her how special a bond between a person and rescue animal can be.
