Captured in this photo are many of the things you will see at the Waterford Canal Festival on May 19:
canal barge replicas, mules, local information, food, kayaks, history, heritage and of course, the water. The
Chamber of Southern Saratoga County will be hosting the Canal Festival in partnership with the Village of
Waterford. Both Chamber and Village are proud supporters of the Town of Waterford’s Steamboat Meet
(July) and Tugboat Roundup (September).
