Welcome
Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Society is a not for profit organization located in Verplanck, New York. It was established in 1922 by a handful of Italian immigrants from Calabria, Italy most of whom worked at the quarry in Verplanck. The Mt. Carmel Society has grown from that tiny group of men to a record number one hundred thirty-five members in 2009. We also have an active Ladie's Auxiliary with thirty members.
Our mission is to support our community and neighbors through our donations and charitable work with various organizations while keeping the Italian tradition alive. Throughout the year the Mt. Carmel Society holds several events such as Las Vegas Nights, golf outings, dinners, clambake, picnics and our annual Italian Feast. The Feast is our main source of funding and we look forward to hosting it every year. We have the distinction of being the longest running fair in the Hudson Valley, this being our 87th Feast.
We are in the midst of a huge renovation project to our building which will double its size and upgrade and modernize our facility to be completely handicapped accessible.
If you are interested in becoming a member or making a donation to the Mt. Carmel Society please see our contact page for more information.
