Join us for an afternoon of rousing lumberjack songs!

Enjoy the music and learn about this tough, rough, and crucial work. This program also includes informative narratives about Adirondack Mountain logging camps in the 1800s.

Adirondack Lumber Camp Songs is a new program, launched in 2019 by award winning songwriters and singers Cosby Gibson and Tom Staudle, who live near the Adirondacks in upstate New York. Cosby and Tom have been performing as a duo for eight years and tour regionally and nationally. Together they play original and favorite tunes with a variety of instruments including guitar, fiddle, banjo, and harmonica, and in many settings such as festivals, concert series, house concerts, and events.

This program runs about an hour and is most enjoyable for older children and adults.

Admission is free. Donations are always welcome and help support future programs.
