Outdoor Recreation in New York

The Niagara Fishing Expo was featured in this space two weeks ago. However, outdoor enthusiasts should not forget about the other exciting event close to home. Runnings Great New York Sportsman’s Expo is the longest-tenured show of its kind in the Northeast.

At 70-plus years and counting, folks from all over New York have celebrated the great outdoors at the New York State Fairgrounds in the Syracuse suburb of Geddes. It’s an annual tradition.

“The brand-new Exposition Center has allowed us to bring in more outfitters, charters and manufacturers,” Lenox said during a recent phone conversation. “Bring the whole family and watch the National Dock Dogs compete.”

Lenox said this year’s dock dogs event is a wild-card, double-points affair that is being sponsored by Sit Means Sit of Syracuse. It always attracts more and better dogs, Lenox noted.

He said organizers are excited to welcome back the Pop-Up 3D Archery Shoot.

“Similar to what is seen on TV, this shoot is a ton of fun,” he said. “You can shoot for fun with friends or shoot the competition for great prizes.”
