THANK YOU!

A VISION SINCE 1989

We appreciate the incredible support shown during our 2025 Annual Appeal. Your generosity reflects a shared commitment we all feel toward maintaining the Feeder Canal Park while promoting FREE year-round recreational and educational activities for our community.

In case you are new to our efforts, we'd like to introduce you to the woman who started it all: Gaynelle Moore (1932 - 2022), pictured above. Her vision, combined with years of hard work and support by fellow board members, volunteers, civic leaders, and the NYS Canal Corporation, has left a legacy we will continue to carry on for future generations.

VOLUNTEERS

VOLUNTEERISM is at the heart of all we do to preserve, protect, and promote the Feeder Canal Park. A 2026 priority is to establish a solid volunteer base to support year-round activity for a variety of efforts, including trail maintenance, programming, and fundraising. Learn about upcoming opportunities below.
