One of our contributors, Chris McNicholl, is canoeing in the Adirondacks this week and it made me start thinking WATER. Water in this part of Central New York can often mean Erie Canal.
Coincidentally, this week is the date for ANOTHER Canalfest, this time in Sylvan Beach, on August 11th & 12th. There will be FREE entertainment throughout the weekend, as well as crafters, vendors, entertainment in the village Bandstand and Classic Cars in the Village Park. There's even a Boati Gras with a boat parade on the 11th. MORE INFO
The Little Falls Canal Celebration lasts from August 6th 'til August 12th and the activities are far too numerous to mention here. This is truly a full community affair with sidewalk sales, canoe races, fireworks, kiddie rides, a parade, food fair, picnic, numerous food sales, craft fairs, flea markets, even a commemorative stamp. CHECK HERE FOR THE FULL SCHEDULE.

Festivities on the water don't stop there in upstate New York either. Check a little further and you'll find that the Little Falls Canal Celebration is just one stop in Canal Splash weekend. Canal Splash is a statewide signature event. 2007 Canal Splash will consist of a coordinated series of locally organized events and activities, including nature and history walks, museum and gallery exhibits, rowing regattas, kayak and canoe outings, musical performances, boat tours and more.
