The Countdown For The March 1, 2015 Bull Smythe Relay Has Begun!
Tuesday, January 20, 2015 at 10:58PM 
The Bull Smythe Relay is the kick off event for Smithtown’s 350th Anniversary Celebration. The committee planning the celebratory events, Smithtown 350 Foundation, is hosting an olympic style run around the Town of Smithtown. The Town has been divided into 36 miles. Each mile has a sponsor who has contributed $250 to the Foundation which goes towards funding the year-long celebration.
The Foundation began selling the miles in December and as of this afternoon only two of the 36 miles are ;)
unclaimed. Each mile will be run by an individual or a team (maximum 10 people) who will carry a copy of the Town’s 1665 patent. The team will turn the baton (patent) over to the next team at the end of their mile. The route was planned to emulate the legend of Bull Smythe’s riding a bull around the territory now known as Smithtown.
In addition to the relay there is a Birthday Gala scheduled for March 5th. The Town Board will open the time capsule buried in 1965 on March 3, 2015 at a scheduled Town Board meeting.
There is a list of Bull Smythe Relay sponsors at Smithtown350foundation.org as well as a calendar of events planned throughout 2015.
Plan to participate in one, some or all of the events and be a part of Smithtown’s History.
