This is just one of many great photos taken at the annual Women’s Fly Fishing Seminar, held at Pineville on the Salmon River on Saturday. Women who love to fish got expert help in the difficult art of fly fishing.
Jessica Burt took this photo for the Oswego County Department of Promotions and Tourism, which shared them with us.

Local officials are not willing to let Fort Ontario sit idle for the entire summer.
At a meeting of the county’s Tourism Advisory Council this week, county officials and local tourism business owners decided to ask the state if there’s a way to get the fort open. Fort Ontario is one of 55 state parks, historic sites and golf courses that either closed or were not allowed to open for the summer because state lawmakers have not approved a state budget yet.
On Saturday at 1:15 p.m., Harold Youmans will present a program on the 1814 British raid on Oswego at Fort Ontario State Historic Site. Youmans will use primary sources and present some new information and insights on the battle; he will discuss the strategies, available forces, execution, and results of the British efforts.
