14 Dormitory Drive off Idaho Avenue on the
former Plattsburgh Air Force Base. Presenters
will be recorded for makeup
purposes. 
 

Battle of the Birds

A new fundraiser will be taking place during
Battle of Plattsburgh weekend in place of the Bed    Race and the Roducky Derby. Additional details
to come, please mark your calendars as we will
need all hands on deck!
