Always Something to Do in Westchester County
Bicycle Sundays, Playland, pools and beaches, outdoor movies

Our popular Screenings Under the Stars series completes its run on Thursday, Aug. 21 when the family favorite "Shrek the Third" (PG, 2007) will be shown at sundown. A special presentation of the cult classic "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" (R, 1975) follows at 12 midnight.

If you're looking to cool down from the summer heat, check the county beaches and pools schedule. Reserve a Sunday this summer to visit the Farmers Market at Muscoot Farm in Somers. Or get some well-deserved exercise during Bicycle Sundays. Joggers, walkers and those with strollers are welcome. The Heritage Festivals are winding down in August so don't miss the last ones.

If shopping and antiquing are your passion, the Office of Tourism offers a list of suggested destinations. Or if you prefer meandering through orchards, farmers markets and wineries, Westchester County has them too. Considering a convention? We can help plan it.

As you get into shape for the summer months, look into the Be Fit Westchester, a program that encourages adults and children alike to get into shape by exploring the miles of trailways in our county parks.

Volunteers have been the the heart and spirit of the Westchester County Parks system since the 1920s. Every year, we rely on thousands of civic-minded individuals, organizations and groups to volunteer their time and efforts to help make the parks one of the most outstanding park systems in the country. Won’t you help as well?

Don't forget to subscribe to the Parks E-Club to get up-to-the-minute information about our special events and valuable discounts.

Westchester has all types of lodging options; national hotels, budget-friendly motels, plus charming inns and B&Bs, so there’s something for everybody.


Westchester owns and operates six beautiful 18-hole golf courses. Special rates are available to residents with a county Park Pass and to senior citizens.


  
Be Fit Westchester was created to encourage residents to incorporate healthy eating habits and more physical activities into their daily routines.
