RIVERFEST
Family and MWR, in partnership with AUSA, is once again offering a summer day on the river to Fort Drum Soldiers and Families at the annual Family and MWR/AUSA Riverfest on June 20. Your day in Alexandria Bay can start at Alexandria Bay Village Pavilion for a picnic lunch before strolling through the village to the Uncle Sam dock where you can also enjoy the Family and MWR Carnival at the boat la...unch area with children’s events, rock climbing wall, as you await your riverboat for a 1 hour tour of the Thousand Islands. You will have access to Heart Island with a tour of Boldt Castle. Tickets are $15 per adult, $5 for children aged 6 to12, and children who are 5 years of age are free. Riverfest tickets are available May 1 – June 3 from Unit Representatives. Tickets will then be available June 4 – 19 at the Family and MWR window on the second floor of Clark Hall Monday through Friday between the hours of 9 am – 4 pm and Monday through Saturday at Parks and Recreation daily from 9 am – 5 pm. Bus transportation is provided from Magrath Sports Complex to Riverfest and is encouraged due to limited parking available in Alexandria Bay. Additional parking and shuttle transportation are available at the Alexandria Bay Drive-In located on Rt. 26 or at the Uncle Sam’s overflow parking lot located off of Rt. 12. Look for directional signs for Riverfest parking. The last bus returning to Fort Drum will leave Alexandria Bay at 5 pm.
In the past SOS has been provided complimentary tickets. I will be requesting to see if these will be available again this year, but need an idea of how many folks are interested in attending.
