saranac

One of the biggest events of the Summer for the City of Utica is Saranac Thursdays. It's a place where friends and family can gather to enjoy good times, great beer, and some sweet music. Not many people realize however, that this is not a big money maker for Saranac, but is actually the biggest fund-raiser of the year for the local United Way chapter.

It's hard to believe it's already the third Saranac Thursday of the year. One of the most important jobs at this party is the pouring of the beers. The task of serving ice cold and refreshing Saranac beers to thirsty patrons is a coveted position that is more popular than you may think!

We've been waiting long enough; Saranac Thursday is finally here, and the fun gets started this evening!
