- Country Western BBQ at Nussy’s Bier Garten: Friday, July 31, 6 to 9 p.m., 57 Ravine Drive, Round Top. If you haven’t experienced the rowdy, old-fashioned Bavarian-style fun that can be found in various establishments in and around the Greene County hamlet of Round Top, get to Nussy’s Bier Garten at Riedlbauer’s Resort on a Friday night for all-you-can-eat barbecue, a great selection of German beers and music by the Roving Cowboys. The buffet is $15/person from 6 to 8 p.m.; the music continues until 9 p.m.
- Paul Green Rock Academy Day: Saturday, Aug. 1, 2 to 7 p.m., 1293 Route 212, Saugerties. The music school near Woodstock hosts a community day of food, bands and games. The Women Empowering Women project will put on a pop-up shop of handcrafted clothing, jewelry and other wares. The musical performances include Woodstock’s own Simi Stone.
