Bicentennial of the Erie Canal
Port 25 – Hudson River Maritime Museum Kingston, NY
Commemorate the Bicentennial Voyage of the Seneca Chief along the Erie Canal with
fellow alumni, students, and staff. We’ll gather at 4 p.m. to welcome and tour the Seneca Chief, a faithful recreation of the historic canal boat that first traveled from Buffalo
to New York City in 1825 to mark the canal’s completion. This remarkable project brings
history to life—and SUNY Delhi is proud to be part of it. Walt Manalio ’62, a dedicated volunteer and SUNY Delhi alum, played a leading role in recreating the
Seneca Chief and will be on-site to share his experience and speak with fellow graduates.
Due to the great public interest, you are encouraged to register for the Seneca Chief Viewing.
Following the viewing, alumni are invited to gather informally at Savona’s Trattoria
(11 Broadway, Kingston) between 5:30 and 6 p.m. to continue the celebration and connect with fellow Broncos. Let’s honor this historic
milestone and celebrate the SUNY Delhi spirit—we hope to see you there!

SUNY Delhi Veterans Day Program
The Okun Theater, Farrell Center
SUNY Delhi Campus, Delhi, NY
This year, SUNY Delhi is celebrating Veterans Day at 3 pm on Tuesday, November 11,
2025, at the Okun Theater on campus. It's hard to believe, but we will be recognizing
250 years of military service to America. That's a long time and a lot of veterans. In addition to our modern branches like
the Coast Guard, Air Force, and Space Forces, they will take time to consider the
original three US Army, US Navy, and US Marine Corps created by the 1775 Continental
Congress. The program is open to the public and recognizes both veterans and their
families. Reception follows. No registration required. Family friendly.
