The annual banquet will be held Friday, January 23, 2009 at a new location for us: the DoubleTree Inn, 6301 State Route 298, East Syracuse (just east of Carrier Circle on Carrier Drive; it used to be the Marriott Hotel).

Cocktail hour with a cash bar including light hors d’oeuvres begins at 6:30PM followed by a full buffet dinner at 7:30PM. A tossed salad with choice of dressings and warm rolls and butter will be served followed by the buffet which will include a fresh fruit salad, chef’s chicken, sliced London Broil with sherry mushroom sauce, spinach and cheese stuffed ravioli tossed with a red pepper coulis, chef’s potato, fresh vegetables, assorted dessert bar, and coffee, tea, or decaf.

Officers for 2009 will be voted on and elected, awards for our 2008 cyclists will be presented and of course, we will have many wonderful door prizes! This will be a fun event at the new location so please come and bring a guest! The price will be $25 for adults and children 16 and under are free.
