The Mohawk Towpath Byway had plenty of visitors today at the Mabee Farm historic site. All were interested in the recreational opportunities within the Byway’s corridor. We started off the day with many bikers on the sixth day of the Erie Canal Trek coming from Buffalo and due to end up in the Corning Preserve in the Port of Albany tomorrow. Our booth was well placed, opposite the kitchen where Schenectady County Historical Society volunteers scooped Stewart’s Ice Cream all day.

Many thanks to Maryanne Mackey and Mary MacDonald (pictured here) who helped staff the booth, answer questions and distribute materials.
