SUNY Oswego is a gem of a school. Our campus is beautiful-next to Lake Ontario-and the people are friendly. Our students come from many states e countries, but most are from our surrounding areas and New York City. We have a great cultural program yearly, open to the general public. We have graduated many teachers since the 19th century, fro well-respected teacher education programs. Of course we offer a liberal arts education also, and even engineering now. Sports too, with a great ice hockey arena. Come visit our campus, stroll around our pond, see stunning sunsets, meet a deer, red fox and birds... Praise to thee,Oswego!

The cemetery is located 100 yards to the east of the fort counting about 75 gravestones Would say at least half are unreadable, while about 1/4 are clear. One staff member informed me the oldest grave is from the French & Indian War, will the most resent being from the mid-1950's. Two memorials stand out. The first-1776-1906-'In Grateful Remembrance of Service of Twelve Unknown Revolutionary Soldiers Who Lie Buried Here'. The second being 'The Memory Of The Men & Women Who Gave Their Lives, Their Service, Their Fortunates To Achieve And Maintain American Independence'. A wooden rail fence surrounds the cemetery. Two info stands-'The Post Cemetery'-about the cemetery's history-and 'Those Buried at Fort Ontario'- the majority are enlisted men who died of sudden or protracted illness. Also an info stand-'Monument To Women And Children on the Frontier'. A few feet away is a monument with the words-'From Hearth Of American Comes the Heart of America'-on the front of an large outdoor fireplace. A complete visit will probably last only 25 minutes at most. A visitor can drive over to a small parking lot or walk on a concrete walkway. The cemetery faces north toward Lake Ontario. A visit is recommended.

Great place for fresh pastries, vegetables and spices. We purchased an assortment and were very pleased with everything. As members of Harvest Host we camped overnight in their orchard which was wonderfully quite and a beautiful space to wake up in.
