Program Description

Event Details

Join us to honor the 200 year old “great ditch” that still runs from Albany to Buffalo-o. The “canawlers” sang hundreds of songs telling of the great work to build and operate the canal, how it changed life, and how it caused bargemen to suffer through violent storms, though only 20 feet wide and 4 feet deep. Come listen and sing along! Light refreshments.
