Come out to Rensselaerville and enjoy a great big party in a little tiny town! Fall is a great time to visit the Hilltowns - and see all of the beautiful colors on a bright fall day! There's plenty to see and do for cyclists and non-cyclists alike - so bring the family! We'll be tabling the event and featuring some hands on items, and leading a free guided hike of the Preserve. It's going to be a great time!
