Historian Ted Panyatoff returns to Oswego to deliver a free presentation about the “Forts of the Endicott Period Coastal Defense System.” The discussion begins at 7 p.m. on Friday, August 3 in the Enlisted Men’s Barracks at Fort Ontario State Historic Site on East Fourth Street.
Some believed that a British invasion of the U.S. through Canada was a possibility as late as 1897. As a result, plans were drawn up to update the recently abandoned and obsolete Fort Ontario. Mr. Panyatoff will discuss these plans during his talk.
For those requiring assistance to the fort from the parking lot, a golf cart will be available.
