(Oneida, NY – April 2015) The Greater Oneida Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce that Great Swamp Conservancy has been awarded April Business of the Month.
The GSC mission is to foster environmental, cultural, and natural history education; to promote outdoor recreation; to preserve biological diversity; and conserve and manage natural resources in the Oneida Lake and Lake Ontario Watersheds.
The Great Swamp Conservancy holds numerous events open to the public, showcasing nature in all four seasons. Members look forward to the annual Spring and Fall migration festivals, where artisans and vendors from around Central New York come to showcase their wares and celebrate the arrival and departure of our migrant feathered friends. Check the events page often for updates, or stop by the visitor center for a chat and to pick up a free event calendar.
The Great Swamp Conservancy is located at 8375 North Main Street in Canastota and is open 7 days a week.
The chamber recently launched its new program to honor a deserving member business each month. Chamber members can take part by submitting a Member of the Month form, found on the chamber website www.oneidachamberny.org.
