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.
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.
BANQUET UPDATE
It is with heavy hearts that we share this news. Momma D will be unable to attend this year’s Athena Ride for Women due to a motorcycle accident she had on her way here. She has suffered multiple fractures but we are happy to share that this is stable and recovering well.
Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.
OUR PLAN B
Following our banquet festivities we’re going to have a movie night in the Stuart’s Opera House theater. We’ve been given special permission to have popcorn and drinks in the historic theater. Curious what movie we are showing? We will announce the selected film Wednesday night during Kickstart.
