50th Anniversary of SUNY Adirondack - Sept 17th

This in straight from the college website. Pass the word, this is going to be an amazing event!

Here goes:

It's going to be quite an amazing day as SUNY Adirondack kicks off its two-year 50th anniversary celebration in fine style by hosting its first Homecoming on Saturday, Sept. 17, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at college’s Queensbury campus.

There is no admission charge and the public is invited.

The centerpiece of the day will be the first annual Tour D’Education Bike Rally. Proceeds from the Rally will benefit the ACC Foundation’s scholarship fund and will be held rain or shine.

The master of ceremonies for the day will be Joe Donahue, a SUNY Adirondack alum and host of “The Roundtable,” weekdays at 9 a.m. on WAMC Northweast Public Radio.

The day includes an “Alumni Experience” in the Student Center, a craft fair, a fly-over of antique planes, food and beverages at 1960s prices, a high ropes course, family entertainment, and live music all day.

The Visual Arts Gallery will be open and a children’s activity from the World Awareness Children’s Museum will be held.

The Tour D’Education covers 10, 25 and 50-mile routes through Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties. Check-in time is 8 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Registration fees are $20 for adults and $10 for children under age 13. Each participant will receive a free tee shirt with registration. Helmets are required for all riders.

The 50-mile route begins at 8:30 a.m.; the 25-mile route begins at 9:30 a.m.; and the 10-mile route begins at 10 a.m. All routes begin and end at the SUNY Adirondack campus in Queensbury.

Registrations will be taken up until the day of the race. To register online, visit www.bikereg.com or www.sunyacc.edu.
