Harnessing Nature: An Interactive Discussion About the Great Sacandaga Lake
Saturday, September 14th, 4-6pm at the Gloversville Middle School Auditorium

In 1930, the Great Sacandaga Lake, then called the Sacandaga Reservoir, was created with the construction of the Conklingville Dam. Using clips from the documentary “Harnessing Nature: Building the Great Sacandaga,” local historians will discuss more in-depth the stories of their hamlets, the way the lake affected them, and how our community has changed since the lake’s creation. A Q&A session with attendees will follow.
