Mountain Mudder – Summer Do you have what it takes? The Mountain Mudder event is a hardcore obstacle course to test your all around strength, stamina, mental grit, and camaraderie.

Riverfest, Alexandria Bay – Summer Family and MWR and AUSA offer a day on the river in Alexandria Bay to Fort Drum Soldiers and Families at this annual event. Take a riverboat tour of the Thousand Islands with a stop at Heart Island for a tour of Boldt Castle.

“Salute to the Nation” Mountainfest – Summer This yearly event is free and open to the public and features military equipment displays, children’s games, bounce houses, food and beverage concessions, Salute To The Nation, and a free concert with nationally-recognized talent, all topped off with a fireworks display.

Mountain Monster Mash – October Prepare to be spooked at this ghostly night of fun at Magrath Sports Complex. Our annual Halloween event is open to our military Families who seek ghosts, goblins, ghouls, and witches. Enjoy games, pumpkin decorating, bounce houses, entertainment and attractions, and the haunted house, if you dare!

An Old Fashioned Celebration and Christmas Tree Lighting – December To kick off the holiday season, military Families are invited to Remington Park in early December to enjoy Fort Drum’s Annual Holiday Celebration and Tree Lighting!
