June 8, 2021 by Editorial Staff 2 Comments

Buoy Boat by Dale Evva GelfandThe Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor has announced a call for entries for its 16th annual Erie Canalway Photo Contest.

Images should convey the unique character of New York’s canals and canal communities. Entries must be postmarked by August 27, 2021. Winning photos will be featured in the 2022 Erie Canalway calendar.

Images will be judged in four contest categories: On the Water, Along the Trail, Canal Communities, and Classic Canal. Judges will select first, second, and third place winning images in each category, as well as 12 honorable mentions.

Submitted images should be horizontal format and must be taken within the Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor, which spans 524 miles across the full expanse of upstate New York. It encompasses the Erie, Cayuga-Seneca, Oswego, and Champlain canals and their historic alignments, as well as more than 230 canal communities.

    Thank you for this information on the 16th annual Erie Canalway Photo Contest.

    Today’s 7 features in the New York Almanack are representative of the excellent, diverse coverage the Almanack offers us each day: from the fine and popular arts and crafts, to local history and natural history and environmental issues, to programs and events across a broad range of interests.  We have choices here, what interests us, what we want to read, what we simply ignore and move on, CHOICES.  And we have a most important CHOICE: to be a SUPPORTER of the Almanack, to contribute to its dedicated work in bringing important and fascinating articles to us – DAILY.  As a long-time supporter, I urge my fellow readers, please contribute to the New York Almanack.  Thank you.
