Pre-Conference Walking Tours
Arriving early for the Conference and want to participate in a walking tour? Please register for the pre-conference walking tours so that NYCOM can communicate important information to you about these events.
Downtown Oswego Walking Tour: Join us for a walking tour of downtown Oswego. The tour will highlight some of the improvements made as part of Oswego’s Downtown Revitalization Initiative program. Attendees will gather in the lobby of the Ontario Conference Center at 11:00 a.m. before heading out.
What Can a Land Bank Do? A Site Visit: Participants will meet in an Oswego neighborhood offsite from the Conference Center to learn about how the community has recently benefited from the Oswego County Land Bank’s hard work. Attendees will get a short walking tour of a block where the City has been actively dealing with myriad problem properties. Representatives from the Land Bank will highlight what they’ve done to revitalize the neighborhood. Transportation will not be provided. Attendees will be responsible for driving to the neighborhood on their own and then driving to the Conference Center.
