The Port of Oswego Authority, (POA), in cooperation with the New York State Canal Corp. (NYSCC)/New York Power Authority, (NYPA), hosted an On the Canals event at the port’s marina at 3 Basin St., recognizing the work of Jennifer Mays and her business, Oswego Expeditions, headquartered in the marina, for getting more kayakers out on the canal system. On the Canals promotes kayaking, biking, boating, birding and painting on the canal system. Mays even offered snowshoeing along the canal in Oswego this past winter.
