Last minute plans are underway at the Susquehanna River
Archaeological Center (SRAC) in Waverly, NY in order to get ready for the 8th
annual free community event, DrumBeats Through Time to be held Saturday,
October 15th from 1-5pm.
Along with the nationally awarded Buffalo Creek Dancers performance
from 3-4pm, there will be free admission to the SRAC Exhibit Hall, vendors
selling crafts and artwork, many private local artifact collections rarely seen
by the public, and special archaeological exhibit titled “Time and Tradition”
which is a professionally designed educational exhibit, created in
collaboration with archaeologists from Binghamton University’s Anthropology
Department, and professional designers from the Roberson Museum in Binghamton. The
Seneca Historian Alvin Parker will also be sharing the history of the Seneca
people in a presentation at 1:30pm. SRAC’s Deb Twigg said, “This year’s event
will be bigger and better with many new things we have never had before. Best
of all, it is free for everyone to attend and enjoy with family and friends. We
are just really proud to bring so many unique and exceptional events to our
community.”
The SRAC annual membership luncheon meeting precedes the
public event from 11:30am – 1pm, with the doors opening to the public from
1-5pm. To learn more, visit www.SRACenter.org/events
