Are you new to the area or recently returned and looking to feel right at home? Welcome Home Wednesday is the perfect way to connect with your community, meet new people, and discover the incredible businesses, organizations, services, and volunteer opportunities that make our town thrive.
Join us for an evening of fun, networking, and discovery as we bring together community members old and new in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re here to find new connections, learn about local resources, or simply introduce yourself to the neighborhood, this event is for you!
This month we will be visiting New Roots Charter School in the historic Clinton House building. New Roots Charter School is a small tuition-free public high school with a big mission located in the heart of downtown Ithaca. Open to any student eligible for high school in our wider region, their college and life preparatory program engages students in learning actively, thinking critically, and solving problems creatively and collaboratively, developing the knowledge and skills to be 21st century solutionaries for a sustainable future. This is an excellent opportunity to see what the school has to offer, but also to get a glimpse into the history of the building in which they reside.

• Returning members ready to reconnect.
• Long-time locals who want to welcome and meet new faces.
• Significant others and kids are always encouraged to join in the fun!
