Road trip! Come join area alum in cheering on the Dukes this fall in Villanova. Only 55 spots are available, so sign up now! Please arrive on time to your departure location to ensure we make it time to join President Rose and the Philadelphia area alum at the tailgate. The bus will leave 30 minutes after the game and drop off riders in the same departure locations (Parsiappany > NYC). Alcohol is certainly permitted on the bus; BYOB. Past riders can attest to the rowdy, fun time.

It's time once again for our annual NY Harbor Cruise! Last year was a huge success so let's make this year even better! Come spend the night cooling off with great food, open bar, and even more awesome people on your own private ship, The Zephyr. We have reserved CircleLine's premire ship to cruise around the city: The ship will be sailing up the Hudson and East Rivers in Manhattan, going by historic sites such as the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building, the Brooklyn Bridge and the Colgate Clock. With ten plasma screens, three observation decks, FOOD and DRINKS included, this is an event that you do not want to miss!
For only $65, this is a steal! You don't have to be from JMU, or an alum (but you might have to learn at least one line from the fight song) -- friends and family alike! So tell all your friends, get off work early, get your party shoes shined, and get ready for a fun night with your fellow Dukes! Did we mention the open bar?
