Involved with the Palmyra Community Center, a lover of gardening, passionate about hunting and a resident of Palmyra, Gary LaBerge is the perfect candidate for this years Canaltown Days grand marshal.
Its a compliment to anyone involved in Palmyra, he said, explaining that the position is one of honor and recognition. Its a really nice award.
Tom Klemann, the general chairman of Canaltown Days, felt that with LaBerges history in service to Palmyra he was one of the best candidates for the honor. Klemann oversees the entire festival and was not a part of the committee that chose LaBerge, but felt that they made the right choice.
We typically like to honor someone who has made a difference in the community, he said. Volunteering is one of the biggest ways and I know that Gary does a lot of volunteering. I think its a good fit.
LaBerge said that he grew up in Pal-Mac and expressed a deep love for his hometown. His biggest involvement has been the local community center on 424 Stafford St. in Palmyra, for which he has been the president. He now serves on the Board of Directors.
In addition to the community center, which LaBerge referred to as his pride and joy, the new grand marshal is also a member of the Palmyra-Macedon School Board, a previous coach of youth sports and a member of the Western Presbyterian Church in Palmyra. He has also served on a number of town committees geared toward community development.
Its home, said LaBerge with a laugh. There are so many people I know. Ive visited a lot of places across the country and when I come back I think that there isnt a place that I like better.
In his free time, LaBerge likes to spend time on the land that he and his wife own. He said that he enjoys gardening, bird watching, hunting, fishing, canoeing, swimming in his pool and walking the trail along the Erie Canal.
LaBerge said he has been involved in Canaltown Days often in the past and that he always will be. One of his favorite parts is the very parade that he will ride in this year.
Its a cumulation of all that goes on Saturday, he said. Thats the pinnacle and theres always a big crowd.
In addition to the parade, LaBerge also thinks that Canaltown Days is an opportunity to see people that he doesnt see very often. He enjoys the homecoming events that are put on by the different school classes as well and especially likes to walk through the car show.
Klemann enjoys the community aspect of Canaltown Days as well.
Theres a lot that I look forward to, he said. Celebration is probably the thing I look forward to most. I love all the visitors that come so that we can show them what Palmyra is all about.

No pets, please! The reasons why pets are not allowed at Canaltown Days are largely due to the weather, the volume of people and a lack of shade and water to help them cool off.
Although your pet may be typically well-mannered, the large number of unfamiliar people around the festival environment can make your pet act differently.
It is best to keep in mind that some people arent comfortable around animals and are even quite frightened of dogs.
There are also those who dont know how to behave appropriately with a pet and that can welcome a dangerous situation in a crowded place. Finally, cleanup after pets and animals in close proximity to food preparation may create an unhealthy environment for both your pet and visitors to Canaltown Days.
Because of safety concerns, along with pets, no bikes, rollerblades or skateboards are allowed at the festival.
The popular Palmyra Canaltown Days Car Show is being brought to you by the Gone Cruisin Car Club. Vehicles will line up, in the heart of downtown, on Main Street on Saturday, September 13 from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm, rain or shine. no early birds as Main Street will not be closed to traffic until 9:00 am.
There is no viewing admission. A fine representation of antique and classic vehicles, 2003 and older, crossing the span of time, will please every car enthusiast.
registration begins at 9:00 am. There will be dash plaques to the first 225 cars. FLSM judging takes place from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm with awards immediately following. Trophies are awarded to the Top 25 Stock/25 Modified vehicles and best of each.
For information call (315) 597-4325 or go to www.palmyra canaltowndays.org or www.gonecruisincarclub.com.

One short block north of the Canaltown Days festivities on Palmyras Main Street is the reason for the celebration the Erie Canal, the waterway that made new york the Empire State and opened the American Middle West to the world.
It was no coincidence that DeWitt Clinton, the nyS Governor responsible for the construction of the Erie Canal, had been, not too many years earlier, Mayor of new york City. As mayor of new york, he prepared his city for the inevitable growth he foresaw. To the north of the occupied portion of Manhattan island, he laid out a grid system of roads for the homes and buildings which would be required. Mayor Clinton is also credited with urging ship owners to develop and adhere to a regular schedule of operation. Prior practice was to wait for a full load before departing.
One cannot help but wonder just when the idea of a canal across new york State first occurred to Clinton, but his actions as mayor and his determination to go
forward after being rebuffed by President Thomas Jefferson indicate its importance to him and for that we should all be thankful.
The Erie Canal, begun in 1817, opened in sections and was formally dedicated in 1825. Palmyra, however, became a canal town in 1823, and was a bustling community and commercial center. With a population of approximately 3,500, Palmyra was twice the size of rochesterville, about 20 miles to the west. The immediate success of the canal led to the construction of the enlarged canal , wider and deeper than the original. These were the canals of the draft animals and tow paths. Another forward thinking Governor, Theodore roosevelt, was responsible for the construction of what is technically the nyS Barge Canal, the one we now today, in 1918. To those of us who love it, however, it is the Erie.
The canal basin you will find one block north of Main Street came into being due to the efforts of two forward thinking Palmyra mayors, Jim Elliott and his successor,
Peter Wilson.Thanks to a HUD grant, the basin was carved out of a wetland area. A boardwalk was built and the development of todays marina began. In the years that followed, amenities have been addedinformational kiosks, picnic tables and benches, wi-fi, and, most recently, thanks to a grant from the nyS Canal Corporation, a Comfort Station and picnic pavilion. With the help of another Canal Corporation grant, a boat launch is currently being constructed approximately one half mile to the east of the marina. Interesting note: nyS Governor Andrew Cuomo was the head of HUD at the time of the original award that began the construction in Palmyra.
Owned and maintained by the Village of Palmyra, the Port of Palmyra marina and the Erie Canal are a part of Palmyras history and a major asset in the future of Palmyra, Queen of Canal Towns.

Horse-drawn wagon & carriage parade - Sunday!As part of the 2014 Canaltown Days celebration, a special horse-drawn wagon and carriage parade is planned for Sunday at 2:00 pm.
The parade will start at the Fairgrounds and pass through Main Street.
The nostalgic demonstration of horses, wagons, carriages, and people will be an attempt to depict the role horses played in transportation during the early canal era.
The horse, while not the only means, was by far the most popular and speedy mode of transportation available during the early canal years.
Business depended heavily on horse drawn wagons to deliver goods to them with which to work or to sell. The family horse and buggy was necessary for many reasons. It provided the
means with which to fetch provisions from the general store, to take the family to church on Sunday, to visit the neighbors, to go for help in an emergency, and even to provide the young men of the family with a suitable courting vehicle.
The finer (lighter) breeds served the family transportation needs and light commercial duties, such as transporting the traveling salesman as he made his assigned rounds.
The heavier draft horse provided the muscle to pull the heavily-laden freight wagons. Grain, lumber, and other heavy materials were transported across the land to and from the canal boats on wagons pulled by these great animals.
Come out and enjoy the parade!
