The town of Copake is located in
Columbia County, two hours North of New York City and three hours West
of Boston. Since
1824 neighbors and visitors delight in Copake's scenic valleys, lakes
and streams, enhanced still more by the Berkshire Mountains to the East
and the Catskills to the West.
Historic Places
By Harriet Rosen
Description:: At the age of 1 year I spent every summer in a bungalow
we owned on Lower Rhoda Lake. We knew all the camps, Ferosdel, Camp
Rhoda and Barrington, and Camp Natchez. We shopped in a grocery called
Finkels in West Copake. There was the Triangle and the Berkshire Pines
in West Copake, Mr. Palin was the big wig in Town. The Bainers Farm
came there in 1930 off of Route 7A at the four corners opposite Camp
Natchez. The farm is still there in good condition with a lot of cows.
It is for sale and I hope it never becomes something commercial as so
many of the farms in the area are all gone.The best years of my life
wer spent in Copake and my memories will never fade. We knew the Alpern
Family and the Weinberg family and all the families living in the
original Teachers colony near the four corners off Rt 7A. We loved
Franks garage and Longs Grocery Store in Copake and the original movie
theater with the two big flower pots on the stage. Unfortunately we
sold our house in the early 1990's and I still miss it, but go back
every year to visit old friends. I am thrilled that my granddaughter
who is 8 years is going to Camp Pontiac this year for the first time. I
intend to see her on the lake at swim periods if it is possible. My
name at the time was Harriet Rosenfeld and since then I shared the
house with my sister Cynthia Ader. My brothers name was Sheldon
Rosenfeld. In later years we were friendly with the Holober family. If
you recall any of these rememberences please write.
