There will be lots to do for kids of all ages so plan to bring them! The Seaplane activity at Depot Park is always a favorite for kids. This will be on going Saturday and Sunday. The car show will feature unique and interesting cars that always captivate the young ones too. There will be a trophy given out each day during the car show for that day’s “Kids Choice Award” so while you’re looking at and deciding on which cars to vote for (more info on awards below) your self, your children will do the same. We want their involvement and votes each day at the car show. There will also be a “Kid Zone” at the museum tent in Depot Park with specific activities geared toward kids. Then of course there is the Museum, which you’re encouraged to visit while you’re here. Leave your car where it is and take the shuttle!

The professional team at Finger Lakes Seaplanes, LLC will decide on their ability to operate given the conditions. Their aircraft can accommodate 3 passengers plus the pilot. Groups of 2 may be asked to separate across 2 rides so the aircraft is always able to fly with those 3 seats occupied.
