The Athena Banquet is the final event of Athena Ride for Women and it is packed full of fun.

Participants in the Ride for Women Poker Chip Run will receive their fifth chip upon arrival. We will all enjoy some initial social time, appetizers and drinks (cash bar available) before settling in for the Poker Chip drawing — when the winners are revealed. Following the announcement of our winners, we’ll enjoy the complimentary dinner buffet provided by Ohio’s Windy 9 before heading up to the theater for our keynote presentation.

Getting there: Catch a ride to Nelsonville’s Stuart’s Opera House for the Athena Ride for Women Banquet. Buses will take attendees from the Ohio University Inn to the opera house and then return to the Ohio University Inn at the conclusion of the banquet. Bus schedules will be available at registration.
