Visit the Historical Society of Rockland County for an unforgettable experience of wonder and fun! We're opening our 1832 Jacob Blauvelt House to welcome children of all ages to celebrate Saint Nicholas as we've done since 1961. This traditional program is a highlight of the holiday season, and many adults who enjoyed this event in the past, as children, now bring their own families.

• Join in the traditional Dutch celebration
• See shoes magically filled with goodies 
  
• Hear wondrous and joyful stories 
  
• Enjoy holiday refreshments 
  
• Meet Saint Nicholas and his beautiful horse 
  

Why not begin your own tradition and join us? Each child receives a special treat in his or her shoe from Saint Nicholas, and everyone can visit with Saint Nicholas and his horse!
