10 Years Young: The Lance Gregson 1-Eye Classic

A scene from the 2015 Ride.

Hard to believe, but the upcoming annual Lance Gregson 1-Eye Classic celebrates 10 years of celebrating life on a bike!

The classic features various cycling rides and very fun picnic. Save the date: Sunday, Sept. 18. The action starts and ends at Schroon’s Town Park and Beach.

The event is meant to encourage cyclists to get to know each other and have a good time while riding with friends, so there is no formal registration. That morning just sign a waiver, meet some other happy cyclists, grab a map and get on yer bike!

After the ride, there is a potluck picnic, awesome music and a chance to win some cool prizes in various raffles.

There are routes of 3 miles, 10-15 miles, and 26 miles and 45 miles that are titled Easy Does It, Scenic Route, Lance’s Loop, and Cyclist’s Dream. Click here, for more details.

The Labor Day Weekend Rewind

Saturday’s weather was simply spectacular, enjoyed by hundreds and hundreds who packed the Community Wide Garage Sale in the Town Park. As day turned to night hundreds enjoyed Schroon's Annual Labor day Street Dance, with Willie Playmore and fireworks.

Sunday was a soggy, rain soaked affair, but that didn’t deter two keen and dedicated dads (above) from taking advantage of a deserted town beach for some kayak training.

Labor Day Monday was a day to celebrate the lake, the glorious sunshine and the fact the Schroon is in our lives.
