L.L. Bean Store Is About To Open In Kingston, New York
I refer to the group of us who have been patiently waiting for the new L.L. Bean store to open as Bean Watchers. I have had my eye on the store location since it was first hinted that the Hudson Valley would be getting its very own L.L. Bean store.
So here we are just days away from the opening and the excitement is still building. There were some anxious moments earlier this week when it was reported that the soon-to-be L.L. Bean store had caught on fire. Luckily it is not interfering with the Grand opening still set for May 10th, 2024

On Friday the first 200 guests will receive a L.L. Bean gift card the line up to be counted officially starts at 6 AM. On Saturday the first 100 guests will receive a free Boat and Tote bag. The new store in Ulster Crossing will be in the heart of where so many people travel for outdoor fun and excursions.
L.L. Bean Helps Local Causes in Kingston New York Community
In addition to opening the store, L.L. Bean is also giving back to the community. They are partnering with The YMCA of Kingston and Uster County to offer programs that will in turn encourage people to be part of the YMCA and get out to enjoy what the HUdosn Valley has to do. L.L. Bean is also asking for a donation for People's Place.
Customers can help by bringing non-perishable food items to the open house that will be donated to People's Place which is a food pantry, a thrift store, and a community space that has been assisting the community in Kingston since 1972.
