Mills Mansion hosts Gathering of Old Cars

gathering-of-the-old-cars-@Short of the colorful splendor of fall foliage, there’s nothing that puts a smile on the face of someone on a driving errand quite like spotting mint-condition classic automobiles as they pass through your neck of the woods for some car-collectors’ wingding. That will be happening in Dutchess County this weekend, as hundreds of antique cars converge on the lawn of Mills Mansion at the Staatsburgh State Historic Site.

The annual Gathering of Old Cars returns this Sunday, October 18 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission to view the fancy flivvers and chat with their proud owners is free, but for the usual entry fee you can tour the stately Beaux-Arts home as well. The Great Lawn offers a fantastic view of the Hudson and the Catskills at the peak of leaf-peeping season, so it’s a terrific excuse for a multipurpose outing with something to please pretty much everyone, from motorheads to museumgoers to outdoorsy types.

The Staatsburgh State Historic Site is located at 75 Mills Mansion Drive in Staatsburg.

Frances Marion Platt

Frances Marion Platt has been a feature writer (and copyeditor) for Ulster Publishing since 1994, under both her own name and the nom de plume Zhemyna Jurate. Her reporting beats include Gardiner and Rosendale, the arts and a bit of local history. In 2011 she took up Syd M’s mantle as film reviewer for Alm@nac Weekly, and she hopes to return to doing more of that as HV1 recovers from the shock of COVID-19. A Queens native, Platt moved to New Paltz in 1971 to earn a BA in English and minor in Linguistics at SUNY. Her first writing/editing gig was with the Ulster County Artist magazine. In the 1980s she was assistant editor of The Independent Film and Video Monthly for five years, attended Heartwood Owner/Builder School, designed and built a timberframe house in Gardiner. Her son Evan Pallor was born in 1995. Alternating with her journalism career, she spent many years doing development work – mainly grantwriting – for a variety of not-for-profit organizations, including six years at Scenic Hudson. She currently lives in Kingston.
