ITHACA LOVES TEACHERS! Nominate yourself as an educational professional, or your favorite teacher or school employee, for a free weekend getaway to Ithaca and the Finger Lakes – just a few hours from NYC! Let’s thank all those in education for going above and beyond to support students! Their dedication, patience and positivity make an impact on so many. They deserve recognition more than ever!
Ithaca, NY and the surrounding area show gratitude for teachers everywhere each February during the annual Ithaca Loves Teachers celebration. To extend the appreciation this year, Visit Ithaca is giving away three getaways donated by accommodations: Hilton Garden Inn Ithaca, conveniently located within steps of The Commons in Downtown Ithaca; Rogues Harbor Inn, in a historic setting perfect for exploring the open spaces along the east side of Cayuga Lake; and The Inn at Gothic Eves, right in the charming village of Trumansburg and minutes from the famous Taughannock Falls State Park.
These FREE VACATIONS can be taken anytime in 2021! All winners will receive a 2-night stay for 2 at one of these participating accommodations. Community safety is a priority and the accommodations are following all NYS and Tompkins County protocols for COVID-19. All guests are required to follow the latest travel and safety guidelines.
