Teen Rescued From Lake Ontario Near Lighthouse
The Oswego Fire Department responded to a report of a person in the water in the Oswego Harbor along the breakwall just west of the lighthouse on Monday. Firefighters located the victim in the water about 50 yards west of the lighthouse along the breakwall and pulled the 18-year-old into the department’s boat. The teen was transported to Oswego Hospital and is being currently treated.
Organizers said Warm Up Oswego 2012 was the biggest and best ever. Hundreds of people took part in activities inside and outside the Oswego YMCA Armory and all over the city as well. The event helped lift the Port City out of the winter doldrums.
Bob Natoli broke the record of the existing Guinness World Fitness Record for Most Weight Lifted by Barbell Upright Row in One Hour. It was previously held by Ireland’s Eamonn Keane (40,752.5 pounds). This record is dedicated to the needs of our veterans at the Syracuse VA Medical Center, he said, adding that he is personally donating $2,000 to the VA Voluntary Services. He encourages other to donate as well.
