New York State Law requires boaters to hold a safety certificate if:
You wish to operate a personal watercraft and are at least 14 years of age.
You wish to operate a motorboat and you were born on or after May 1, 1996. You must be at least 10 years of age to take the course.
Although not mandatory, except of PWC operation, adult boating education is strongly recommended.
There is no charge for the training. A parent or guardian must accompany any youths ages 10 through 17 to the classroom on the day of the course to sign a parental permission form.
Pre-registration is required, and class size will be strictly limited due to available space. Interested students can register by contacting Jessica Lighthall weekdays from 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM at
(315) 349-3372.
$4 per person, $12 per family, children under 3 are free.
The spring skies and water echo with noise and activity as ducks, geese, and other waterfowl return to their natal ponds to court and raise young. Following a slide presentation on ducks and other water-bird residents of the Center’s pond and brook, enjoy a walk to the beaver pond with naturalist Pat Carney, to look and listen for waterfowl. Perhaps we’ll see Hooded Mergansers courting or hear an American Bittern calling. Dress for an early spring outing. Binoculars recommended. A limited number are available to borrow.
