National Trail Day Event at the Chenango Canal in Bouckville - June 7, 2008 - 1-4 PM

To help promote National Trail Day, the Chenango Canal Association (CCA) invites you to the Chenango Canal Towpath Trail at the Cottage Museum in Bouckville on June 7^th, between 1:00 and 4:00 pm. 

The CCA will offer two Living History tours of what life was like on the Chenango Canal during the 1800s. The bus tours, which are free of charge, are narrated by Diane Van Slyke and will leave the museum at 1:00 and at 2:30 pm. Weather permitting, the tours include a visit to a 171-year old lock, a short walk along part of the trail and talking with ‘canalers’ in period dress. Families can also learn canal terms while having fun with a Clues Hunt along the Towpath Trail. Refreshments are available.

National Trail Day is celebrated during Bouckville’s Spring Antique Show, another fun event that extends along Rt. 20 between Madison and Bouckville. Traffic is normally not hard to get through. Come and spend a rewarding afternoon! 

Call 315-893-7910 for more information; reservations for the tour are not necessary.
