What's New In the Adirondacks

Recently in Charities and Fundraisers Category

You've heard of rubber duck races, (check out the annual Kiwanis Fundraiser in Glens Falls) but a rubber loon race? Now that's something that only the Adirondacks would have.

Zippy's Crusade for Kids is a non-profit event to raise money for kids in need throughout the community. A tradition of the annual event is to surprise the recipients with the donations, which have been kept a secret until the event. Three area families will be very happy special guests at the presentation.

The Adirondack Pub & Brewery, in the village of Lake George, will be hosting their 5th annual Brewers Oktoberfest on Saturday, October 15th. The event will benefit the WAIT House in Glens Falls.
