The Greater Nanuet Chamber of Commerce will host its Seventh Annual Nanuet Street Fair on Sunday, October 17th from 10am – 5pm on Main Street. The event has quickly become one of the most popular in Rockland County and attracted more than 15,000 people in previous years.

Parking and admission are free. This year’s Fair will feature nearly 200 vendors, a Kidz Zone, car/jeep show, musical entertainment all day long, and more. Musical performances will include FDR Drive Band, Country Fresh, and Georgia 5.

The day will start with free coffee at 10am. Everyone who shows up by 11:15am to the coffee area will receive a ticket for the special “Small Town, Big Heart” raffle and 20 people will win a $10 gift certificate to spend during the Fair at any vendor.

The Kidz Zone will include rides, crafts, local dancers, singers, karate demonstrations along with musical performances, and a live reptile show. Children can have an all-access pass for rides and bounce houses for $15 for the day or purchase tickets individually for $5.00 each.

The Nanuet Street Fair will also feature local bands on the main stage at Church Street, plenty of unique food purveyors, wine, beer, and dessert options. Nearly 200 vendors will be onsite selling clothing and jewelry, artwork, quality handmade crafts, along with many local businesses showcasing goods and services.

The car/jeep show will take place in front of the old firehouse on Prospect Street. People interested in showing their car can sign up that morning for $10 entry fee. First, second, and third place trophies will be given in both the car and jeep categories.

“It was a tough year and half for many residents and businesses, so we are thrilled to be able to bring back our Fair this year. We only host one Street Fair a year, so we want to make sure it’s memorable,” stated Jerry Tuchband, President of the Nanuet Chamber.

This year the Fair’s Premier Event Sponsor is the Tourism Board of Rockland County. Gold sponsors are Dynamic Productions, Luxury Kitchen & Bath, and RocklandParent.com. Silver Sponsors include Active International, GMG Public Relations, Good Samaritan Hospital, Mercedes-Benz of Nanuet, Nanuet Restaurant, Town of Clarkstown, and WestRock Pool & Spa. Bronze Sponsors include Bach to Rock, Kumon of Nanuet, Orange & Rockland, Prestige Realty Group, Rockland Bakery, and Wallauer Paint & Design.

“We are the only Street Fair in the tri-state where you can pick up a free goody bag when you arrive. The bag itself is a gift but inside are goodies and coupons from local vendors around Nanuet,” stated Susan Farese, Fair organizer for the Nanuet Chamber of Commerce. The bags are distributed to the first 500 families who stop by the Nanuet Chamber booth at Market Street.

TAPPAN, NY — Each year, Carl A. Schelin Post 1271 of Tappan partners with the Volunteer Fire Association of Tappan and the Tappan Reformed Church to host a Memorial Day parade honoring fallen veterans and active servicemen and women. The parade begins at the Masonic Hall on Western Highway and concludes at the Tappan Triangle in front of the Tappan Reformed Church.

In addition to the parade, organizers are preparing to launch the 5th Annual Field of Honor® in Tappan. The patriotic display will run from May 16 through July 18, 2026, at the Manse Lawn field.

More than 300 American flags are expected to be displayed in solemn formation, each representing an individual hero. Flags may be sponsored to honor active-duty military members, fallen service members, veterans, first responders, hometown heroes, frontline workers, as well as victims of 9/11 and COVID-19.

Organizers say the display serves as a powerful community tribute. “Each U.S. flag represents an individual and tells a story,” they noted, emphasizing the importance of remembrance and unity.

The Field of Honor is made possible through donations, sponsorships, and volunteer support. Community members can participate by sponsoring a flag, becoming a corporate sponsor, or making a donation. The event is open to all and not limited to Tappan residents.

Sponsorship forms are available at the Tappan Fire Department on Monday evenings from 7 to 9 p.m., at local businesses, or online at https://www.healingfield.org/event/tappan-ny-2/.
