June 29: Rhinebeck Coffee Run
June 29 @ 9:00 am - 2:00 pm
Starting point: New Milford Green (Main Street), New Milford, CT. Park anywhere along the Green. Coffee shop and restrooms are within walking distance, and there’s a gas station just around the corner.
Drivers meeting at 9:00 a.m., on the road at 9:30 a.m. sharp. The total drive time to our final destination (with a rest stop) is approximately 2 hours.
We’ll enjoy a scenic drive westward through Fairfield, Putnam, and Duchess Counties, culminating in a visit to the vibrant and historic town of Rhinebeck, NY. The route has received universal praise from last year’s participants—expect winding roads, open views, and summer charm (assuming the weather cooperates).
Our return journey to New Milford will follow a different route, this time incorporating the Taconic Parkway, giving us a fresh perspective on the landscape.
More details to come as we get closer to the event date.
