For the last 33 years, the club has organized the highly successful event, which attracts more than 20,000 visitors over a three-day weekend in September, with support from local groups and volunteers.

Proceeds from the festival are donated back to the community to support programs for the sight- and hearing-impaired, food pantries, libraries, emergency services along the north shore of Oneida Lake, and the Oswego County Search and Rescue Team.

The 2017 festival will run from September 22 to 24 at the Brewerton Speedway.
