BLACK ROCK BBQ FUNDRAISER UPDATE 🌧️☔

Well… Mother Nature had other plans for us!
Unfortunately, with some pretty lousy weather in the forecast, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel the Black Rock BBQ Fundraiser. We’re definitely disappointed—we were really looking forward to a great afternoon and evening together!

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who purchased tickets, offered to help, supported the event, and helped us put everything together. We truly appreciate your understanding and support.

If you would like a refund for your ticket purchase, simply email us and we’ll be happy to arrange it.

And who knows… maybe Mother Nature is just telling us to save the party for SPRING! 🌷🎉 We’re already thinking about bringing everyone back together for an even bigger celebration.

Thank you for your support—and stay tuned!
The Cornwall Republican Committee

𝐍𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭

Twenty-five years later, Cornwall still remembers one of our own. Read this tribute to Kenneth Kumpel, the monument at Chadeayne Circle, and the neighbors we lost.

𝐍𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭.

Twenty-five years ago today, our nation was attacked, and 2,977 lives were lost in a single morning. First responders ran toward the fire. Neighbors helped strangers. And a country that had been divided stood together.

Here in Cornwall, that morning took one of our own. Kenneth B. Kumpel, a firefighter with FDNY Ladder 25 and a volunteer with Highland Engine Company, was on duty when his firehouse was called to the World Trade Center. He was 42. A former New York City police officer, a devoted husband to Nancy and father to Greg and Carl, and a craftsman who built his family’s home here on the Hudson, he never came home. His sons followed him into the FDNY, carrying on his legacy.

In 2015, our community dedicated a monument to him at Chadeayne Circle: etched granite, a bronze helmet, and a piece of steel recovered from the towers. That steel came to us through Nick Visconti, a retired FDNY deputy chief from Cornwall-on-Hudson who helped build the monument and later died from the effects of his work at Ground Zero. The monument stands as a permanent reminder that 9/11 reached even our quiet corner of Orange County.

Orange County lost 44 of its own that day. Cornwall lost Kenneth. And every year since, Highland Engine #2 has gathered the town at that circle to remember not just the names, but the neighbors, the fathers, the volunteers who ran toward danger.

That spirit of unity, courage, and service is what we honor on Patriot Day. It is also what guides this campaign: keeping our community safe, our emergency services strong, and our neighbors looking out for one another, the same way America came together on September 11, 2001.

We will never forget those we lost. And we will never stop working to keep our town the safe, wonderful place it is.
May God bless the victims, the survivors, the first responders, and the United States of America.🇺🇸

This is why having an understanding of Cornwall’s history matters. Thanks for setting the record straight, Helen.

We’re happy to support Helen Bunt for Cornwall Supervisor.

Friends & neighbors,

Labor Day isn't just a long weekend.

It’s the teacher who spent August rewriting plans so the first week of school isn’t a mess. It’s the volunteers at Highland, Storm King, and Mountainville who still roll when the alarm sounds, holiday or not. It’s the EMS crew that doesn’t get a long weekend. It’s the highway guys who already know what the first freeze is going to do to the roads. It’s the cops, the nurses, the cafeteria staff, the people opening the coffee shops at 6 a.m., and the parents working two jobs so their kids can stay in this town.

If you’re off today, enjoy it. Grill. Sit on the porch. Watch the game. Don’t check email.

If you’re working, we see you.

𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐬 𝐮𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠.

Happy Labor Day from the Cornwall Republican Committee.

The Town Supervisor has discovered that the easiest way to win an argument is to delete the other side.

Josh Wojehowski blocked me, my committee members and others from his official “Public Figure” page. The very page he uses to announce Town business, publicize grants, praise Town employees, and answer the public about how this Town is being run. That is not a private courtesy. That is an official channel.

My members are not anonymous accounts. They are local business owners. Chamber members. Volunteers who coach your children after work. They pay the taxes that fund the office now screening their comments. I am proud of every one of them. Proud of their courage, proud of their voice, proud that they refused to stay quiet while this Town drifts from what it is.

They were not blocked for threats or disorder. They were blocked for criticism. They asked about back door dealings, quiet conflicts, and a tax burden that keeps rising. They objected to a plan that would remake Cornwall into something it is not. The reply from Town Hall was not a rebuttal. It was a block button.

I do not require the Supervisor’s approval to fall asleep at night. I do require that an official who holds public office stop treating disagreement as a problem to be deleted. Public office is not a curated salon. It is a public trust. The people who hold it are subject to public criticism, including criticism that is inconvenient and insufficiently flattering.

No one should have to ask permission before kicking the crown.

Restore access for me and every member he silenced. Apologize for using a government government page to shut residents up. And say, without qualification, that holding office means accepting scrutiny.

If you live here, tell the Supervisor what you think of this. Stand with my members if you choose. More important than that: stand up for your own rights. The First Amendment does not belong to a committee. It belongs to every resident he would rather not hear from.

He came after my committee for doing the work in public. That will not stand.
