After a successful 2019 summer of music on the Josh Kadish Community Stage we look forward to future seasonal performances. If you have ideas or would like to help plan these events for 2021, please contact us so that we can notify you of upcoming planning meetings.
Other future dreams include a solar program for Hillsdale residents to be able to invest in and reap the benefits of solar power as a cooperative. We welcome other ideas from the community.
