New Erie Canal Mural To Be Dedicated Sunday, September 19
We are pleased to invite you to the dedication of the NEW Erie Canal Mural at Lift Bridge Book Shop on Sunday, September 19 at 12pm. After two years of vision, planning, and hard work, this new Main Street masterpiece is ready to be celebrated by the many residents, donors, and invested community members who revitalized this gem gracing the façade at 45 Main Street.
The ceremony will include history of the canal, information about the original art on the building and it’s inspiration, and the artistic process involved in the new mural. This event is rain or shine and limited seating will be available.
We hope you can join us in celebrating this new phase in public art in Brockport!
Please Keep Sidwalk Areas Accessible / Free of Vegetation
A friendly reminder to residents, property owners, and business owners to please consider sidewalk accessibility / ease of use when maintaining your property. Trimming low hanging tree branches or overgrown shrubs and bushes so strollers, wheel chairs, and others passing by can more easily navigate their way is appreciated.
Please note, in the event of a large brush removal or tree trim, the DPW does loan out dump trucks over night to be loaded and then picked up next day for hauling away. Call to schedule 637-1060
"On the Canals" Fall Kayak/Bicycle Tours in Brockport
“On The Canals”—Fall Kayak/Bicycle Tours Offered in Brockport
The Village of Brockport is pleased to announce that it has joined the Erie Canal communities of Waterloo, Savannah, Amsterdam, Macedon and Medina to offer free kayak and bicycle excursions on the Erie Canal. Brockport is offering 3 excursions each day on 4 Saturdays and 4 Sundays in September (18, 19, 25, 26) and October (2,3, 9,10).

Brockport’s Paddle/Pedal excursions begin at the Brockport Welcome Center (11 Water Street), and head west to Holley Canal Park in the Village of Holley. The 2 ½ hour tour comprises 3 miles of kayaking (between Brockport and Sans Souci Park in Clarkson) and 6.75 miles of cycling (Sans Souci Park to Holley Canal Park to Brockport). Kayaks and bicycles are furnished for the tours. Refreshments courtesy of local farms are provided at Canal Park, and participants receive a coupon for a local Brockport restaurant at the conclusion of the tour.

National Grid Letter Dated 9/2/21 Explained
To our village residents who received letters from National Grid this week:
Our energy program was not set to begin as early as National Grid stated in their first letter. National Grid is obligated to tell customers where their energy supply is coming from. They were obligated to report to you that you are still a National Grid customer for the next billing cycle.
No one needs to read their meter and report it to National Grid, as they suggested, National Grid is responsible for that data collection and reading.
In all likelihood, when the program with Constellation for renewable energy begins – for those who stayed opted in – they will see another letter from National Grid stating the switch to Constellation has happened. This is expected albeit very confusing.
