RCS Community Library news: Author Bernard Melewski visits

Spotlight Newsroom by Spotlight Newsroom
April 28, 2022
in Blogs, Coeymans, Community Blogs, Towns
Reading Time: 2 mins read

Former Coeymans resident Bernard Melewski joins us on Saturday, April 30, at 2 p.m. to talk about his book “Inside the Green Lobby.”

His book recounts the behind-the-scenes struggles of a veteran environmental lobbyist working to save New York’s six-million-acre Adirondack Park from the devastating damage from acid rain and the sudden breakup of massive private land holdings.

From strategy sessions to private meetings with legislators, governors, members of Congress and even the President of the United States, “Inside the Green Lobby” recounts, through engaging and entertaining stories, how environmental advocates successfully pursue legislative and policy change.

Copies of the book will be available for purchase and will be autographed by the author. Register today!

See “CODA,” this year’s winner of the Best Picture Academy Award, on our big screen Monday, May 2, at 2 p.m. and Wednesday, May 4, at 6 p.m.

Ruby is the only hearing member of a deaf family. At 17, she works mornings before school to help her parents and brother keep their fishing business afloat. But in joining her high school’s choir club, Ruby finds herself drawn to both her duet partner and her latent passion for singing. Sign up today to reserve your spot.
