BETHEL, NY (May 17, 2012) – Scott B. Samuelson, Chairman of the Sullivan County Legislature, delivered his first State of the County Address tonight at the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts.

“I chose this venue for my first State of the County Address for a few reasons. First of all because it is located in District 1, the district I was elected to represent. Secondly, with this being the first, it is my hope to take our message around the county over the next couple of years to highlight other special places in our community as there are so many, and finally because in 1997 this property began as a dream and now reflects all that is possible. This facility symbolizes the very best of Sullivan County, and has set a standard by which future sustainable economic growth can and should be measured,” said Samuelson.
