Chautauqua Belle Resurgence
Tuesday, April 27th, 2010 at 8:02pm. 1319 Views, 0 Comments.
MAYVILLE - Although the Chautauqua Belle travels in honor of past steamboat traditions on Chautauqua Lake, it will have some new features of its own this year.
Matt Stage, president of U.S. Stearn Lines LTD, which operates the Belle, said a number of projects are under way to keep the replica of the past in tune for future voyages. For instance, he said, the steel in the hull of the Belle's bow section is being replaced this year, and the boiler system and generator of the 100-foot vessel were replaced last year. Stage said it is a replica of steamboats that carried 3,000 people across Chautauqua Lake before railroads became modes of transportation. It is a replica of Mississippi boats and was built in 1975 by the same architect who built those used…

It's well known for its exceptional fishing, especially for walleye, bass, muskellunge and several species of panfish.

Chautauqua Town of Ellery may try leasing Long Point State Park
Friday, April 2nd, 2010 at 9:43am. 635 Views, 0 Comments.
ELLERY - Ellery Town Board members would like to "explore the possibility of leasing" Long Point State Park from the state in hopes of keeping it open.
Long Point is on a list of state parks slated for closure as a way to help fix the state's fiscal crisis. The list is being debated as part of state budget deliberations.
The idea of the park closing, however, is "unacceptable" to the town's officials.
"This short-sighted action by the state of New York would have serious consequences to the economic interest of the town's citizens together with depriving thousands of people of the wonderful recreational opportunities afforded by Long Point State Park," said Town Supervisor Arden Johnson. For instance, he said, people stop at town businesses during a…
