Fort Ontario State Historic Site hosts “Law and Disorder” lantern tours Thursdays, Oct. 5 and 12. Each event begins at 7 p.m. inside the old stone fort located at 1 E. Fourth St. in Oswego. The tours feature costumed interpreters who lead participants in an exploration of the chaotic events in Fort Ontario’s history in the hope of uncovering why so many spirits seem to linger there.
Tickets for the tours are $20 and can be pre-purchased in the museum gift shop or by calling the fort at 315-343-4711 during regular business hours. Tickets at the gate will be offered first come, first serve until the tour is at capacity. Tours take place outdoors, rain or shine, after dark and may include up to a mile of walking, so participants are asked to dress accordingly. Children aged under 8 years are not permitted and parental discretion is advised for all others.
