The month of June brought an exciting start for local pet lovers with two specials events. On June 1, Bedford Barks brought together a community of dog owners and pet service providers. Hosted by Destination 39.3 in Bedford Village Memorial Park, the program included enclosed areas for dogs of all sizes to mingle, a special agility course to test their skills and an adoption center from SPCA of Westchester.

On June 2, the eighth annual  Blessing of the Animals hosted by Lewisboro Land Trust took place at Old Field Preserve Meditation Garden in South Salem. Presided over by Danny Martin, the 25-minute ceremony included stories, music and songs.

Model train show on display in Bedford Hills through Jan. 28

The Bedford Hills Historical Museum is hosting a “New Model Train Show” on the lower level of the Town of Bedford building located at 321 Bedford Road, Bedford Hills.

The display is open Thursday and Saturday through Jan. 28, from 1 to 3 p.m. 

Visitors can see the HO Gauge model trains run on the track in the village that was built by the late Dr. Robert Bibi of Katonah and donated by his wife, Maria, and reinstalled at the museum. With the guidance of our board member and train aficionado, Rick Carmichael, members of the Olde Newburgh Model Railroad Club installed the HO-gauge set at the museum where it remains on display. 

The museum says the new model train display is great for kids of all ages and adults, and it’s free of charge.
