Welcome to Dutchess Chat, the Hudson Valley's first Chat Room.

 "Dutchess Chat" is designed to be extremely easy to use, yet filled with many features you'll enjoy.  What sets this site apart from others is simple: This Site is 100% FREE and there are "NO" strings attached.  You'll also see that this site is governed by very few rules.  With that being said, please review the "Rules of Chat" prior to chatting for the first time.  To keep things running smoothly and to keep the conversation on a fun, yet intelligent and friendly level, we encourage you to feel absolutely free to express your thoughts and opinions, but please do so in a manner which doesn't intentionally insult others on a personal level.
