This tour is for entertainment purposes only, and the walk will be just over an hour and about 1 mile long.

An Evening at the Red Swan Inn

Get your tickets before it sells out!

Step back in time at an Evening at the Red Swan Inn, a special event hosted by the Warwick Historical Society at the beautiful Warwick Valley Country Club, 42 Oakland Avenue, Warwick on Sunday, April 16, 5 to 8 pm.

Constructed in 1903, the Red Swan Inn was an elegant hotel and family resort in the charming Town of Warwick. Wealthy New Yorkers seeking a respite from the city heat would vacation at the resort, enjoying the modern amenities including fine dining, a swimming pool, and golf course.

For one special evening only, join the Warwick Historical Society at the Warwick Valley Country Club as we enjoy a menu artfully curated by Chef Clement Truitt, featuring delicacies enjoyed at the turn of the twentieth-century. An exhibit of collectible artifacts and items from the Red Swan Inn will be on display, music provided by Christopher Ford’s Party Mix, and Village of Warwick Mayor Michael Newhard will be the emcee for the evening, sharing some stories and legends from the inn.

Tickets are $105 per person for the entertaining evening, and on sale now with limited seating. Reservations are required and have already sold half of the tickets. Visit www.warwickhistory.org for more information. Call 845-986-3236 to make your reservation.

  • Thu Sep 14:Melodies of ‘flight with Klemyndable Flute Trio:

    The Kemyndable Flute Trio, Deborah Proulx, Amy Klein, and Kenneth Korn, are returning with a concert specifically designed for the outdoor performance space at the Albert Wisner Public Library.

    The woods and wetlands directly behind the library are home to many birds, and the perimeter of the property is lined with birdhouses.  The terraced grounds create an intimate amphitheater making it the perfect setting for a concert celebrating birds and the music of birds. The flute has a particular affinity to emulate bird songs.  While the flute can play high and fast, it still is lyrical and melodic.  Not surprisingly many composers have written works inspired by birdsong specifically for the Flute.  The Kemyndable Trio will be performing some of the most successful works that capture the lyrical and flowing nature of birdsong.  The following works will be performed: 

    • Trio in D for 3 Flutes F.A. Hoffmeister
    • The Bird Fancyer’s Delight John Walsh
    • Dance of the Hummingbirds Halpner
    • The Cuckoo in the Forest 
    • (From Carnival of the Animals) Saint-Saens
    • On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring Frederick Delius
    • The Cuckoo and the Nightingale Gustav Mahler
    • Birds Herman Beeftink

  • Thu Sep 14:Melodies of ‘flight with Klemyndable Flute Trio:

    The Kemyndable Flute Trio, Deborah Proulx, Amy Klein, and Kenneth Korn, are returning with a concert specifically designed for the outdoor performance space at the Albert Wisner Public Library.

    The woods and wetlands directly behind the library are home to many birds, and the perimeter of the property is lined with birdhouses.  The terraced grounds create an intimate amphitheater making it the perfect setting for a concert celebrating birds and the music of birds. The flute has a particular affinity to emulate bird songs.  While the flute can play high and fast, it still is lyrical and melodic.  Not surprisingly many composers have written works inspired by birdsong specifically for the Flute.  The Kemyndable Trio will be performing some of the most successful works that capture the lyrical and flowing nature of birdsong.  The following works will be performed: 

    • Trio in D for 3 Flutes F.A. Hoffmeister
    • The Bird Fancyer’s Delight John Walsh
    • Dance of the Hummingbirds Halpner
    • The Cuckoo in the Forest 
    • (From Carnival of the Animals) Saint-Saens
    • On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring Frederick Delius
    • The Cuckoo and the Nightingale Gustav Mahler
    • Birds Herman Beeftink
