This is the ultimate event to attend with a big group of friends. Whether you stay in the dorms, tent (or RV) on campus, or stay in local lodging, the Weekender is all about relaxation and exploration, on and off your bike.

Paul Smith's 14,000 acre lakeside campus is perfect hub for you to explore the beautiful Saranac Lake region by bicycle. But this event is so much more. It's a waterfront campfire with a guitar and friends. It's a few paddle strokes on a pristine pond while listening to the enchanting call of a loon.
