What is the official song of Schenectady?

June 3, 2021 By webmaster

“Our Schenectady,” composed by John Van Laak and sung by Judi Merriam. Adopted by the Schenectady City Council Jan. 30, 1995.

In Schenectady
Our Schenectady
What a warm and friendly place it is to be
Nestled among plains and hills
With a beautiful river that always gives us thrills
And stores and shops with all that one might need or wish to see
And legends and tales and lots of history

Oh Schenectady
Our Schenectady
Let us now plan and help to make it grow

If we will all do our best
Then others can do the rest
For places to study and learn in
Places to work and earn in
Places to live in happiness
