Sinter-Celebration this Saturday 9/12 at Oblong Books in Rinebeck at 7:30 PM

It’s a Sinter-Celebration this Saturday 9/12 at Oblong Books in Rhinebeck at 7:30 PM. Stop by and say hello! Have a sweet and share a smile! We’re introducing our new Sinterklaas coffee table book and just getting together to have a good time. Meet Jeanne Fleming, and she’ll sign your book! Some of the photographers and book designer, Elena Erber, will also be on hand.

The book is for sale, along with our unique-have-to-be-seen raffle tickets – why, they look just like tee shirts! We’ll have lots of prizes from local shops and restaurants, and a few surprises as well. It’s going to take some help to pull this year’s celebration together – won’t you join us and show your support? We’ll have light refreshments and a good time. Tell your friends and join us.

Find out how you can participate in this year’s spectacular celebration!

Note: Oblong will give Sinterklaas 20% of all purchases made during our event, so this is a great time to pick up gifts for friends and something for yourself – while helping Sinterklaas with much needed fundraising!

Fans of Sinterklaas... We’re going to be at the Rhinebeck Farmers Market this Sunday 9/6/9 from 10:00 to 2:00. Get a look at our fabulous coffee table book, check out our combination tee-shirt/raffle tickets, and bring the kids to make origami cranes for this year’s celebration!
