Wall Kill Public Libraray

Wallkill Public Library has decided to take part in the 2026 I BIRD NY Challenge sponsored by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. The challenge is open through November 1, and is open to participants of all ages and abilities, and available in Spanish, Arabic, Bengali, Chinese, Dari, Pashto, French, and Urdu. Participants may also earn a bonus entry into the prize giveaway by submitting a photo documenting their experience completing the I BIRD NY Challenge. There's one entry per person, and all entries must be received by November 18, 2026.

For your participation, you'll receive a competition certificate, a commemorative patch, and be entered to win great birding prizes including birding accessories such as spotting scopes and binoculars.  You can find birdwatching materials and log your bird sightings online at: https://dec.ny.gov/things-to-do/birding/i-bird-ny Or, you can swing by the library to pick up copies of those materials and log your sightings with us. Let's go bird watching together!

NAMI Mid-Hudson, in partnership with the Ulster County Department of Mental Health and the Ulster County Executive’s Office, presents "Ending the Silence" a program focused on mental health awareness. Participants will learn to recognize the early warning signs of mental health conditions and suicide, how to seek help, and how to support others. The program includes positive coping strategies, resource information, and a young adult sharing their recovery story, offering a message of hope. Ending the Silence encourages open conversation and reinforces: “It’s OK to not be OK” and “There is No Health Without Mental Health.”

Come join us on Tuesday, April 28, 2026 from 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm in the Town Hall Community Room, which is located at 14 Central Avenue Wallkill, NY 12589. Pizza will be provided!
