2015 Oneida County Travel Guide


HIS TOR IC EVENTS & ATTR ACT IO N S

If a weekend immersed in history is your ideal getaway, Oneida County is the perfect destination. Located at the convergence of many important travel routes, an extraordinarily diverse amount of significant history happened here. In Rome, visitors can tour Fort Stanwix National Monument. Known as “the fort that never surrendered” for successfully thwarting an intense siege in 1777, Stanwix was built to protect traders during the French and Indian War and was also used during the Revolutionary War. Just six miles away at the Oriskany Battlefield, explore the site of one of the Revolutionary War’s most deadly battles. Considered by many to be a critical turning point in the War, hundreds of brave soldiers lost their lives in Oriskany, fighting for American independence. In Sherrill, the Oneida Community Mansion House offers an intriguing tour that lends insight into a mysterious utopian community that endured for decades – even though marriage was not allowed.

The building of the Erie Canal sparked countless cultural and commercial developments throughout the state. Digging began in Rome on July 4, 1817, and today travelers can visit that ground-breaking site and tour authentic 19th-century structures at the Erie Canal Village. Interested in the history of American sports? Check out the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown or the International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota. While in Oneida County, be sure to visit the Baron Von Steuben Memorial, see astounding bygone architecture and decorative arts at Fountain Elms, learn about the Oneida Indians at the Shako:wi Cultural Center, and explore the long list of additional historic sites just waiting to ignite your passion for the past.

Sports

GET AWAY TO Cheer Good Sports Team Spirit. For sports fans we have a variety of events and activities in Oneida County. Start with a local favorite by getting rowdy and cheering on Utica Comets pro hockey or the Utica College hockey team at the Utica Aud, voted one of the 10 Coolest Hockey Rinks in the World by complex.com for its design. If college sports are your thing, you’ll be busy. We host over 20,000 students at more than a dozen area colleges. These institutions boast outstanding facilities and some of the nation’s top teams. Catch a game with the MLB stars of tomorrow, the Utica Brewers or Adirondack Trail Blazers, both of the Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball

League. Baseball enthusiasts shouldn’t miss Cooperstown’s National Baseball Hall of Fame. The museum features nearly 40,000 items and tells the history of baseball through a three-story time line. Be inspired by the greats at the nearby International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota, just off the NYS Thruway exit 34. Get ready to lace-up your sneakers because Oneida County is a hot bed for running as well. Just about every weekend you can find a road race that fits your skill level, and be sure to check out uticaroadrunners.org for a full calendar of events. If you want to get dirty, sign up for The Mighty Run,

ERIE CANAL CRUISES HERKIMER

GET AWAY TO Gather A Fresh & Beautiful Gathering Place There are four main reasons people choose to host events in Oneida County. The first is our conveniently accessible location . Utica , Rome, Verona, and Sylvan Beach are just off NYS Thruway I-90 Exits 31 through 34 and we’re only minutes from Syracuse’s Hancock International Airport. The second reason? Ou r natu ral beauty. Imagine hills, valleys, forests, and lakes as the backdrop for your event. Third reason is our food. Rich local farming, strong traditions, and ethnic diversity converges in Oneida County to produce memorably delicious fare. Event planners are attracted to the quality and variety of our venues.

Weddings Oneida County offers an unforgettable array of possibilities from large fairy tale receptions in the ballrooms at Vernon Downs, to swanky affairs at the Shenandoah Clubhouse and The Beeches. Rustic but elegant barn weddings at the Hayloft on the Arch in Vernon Center or the historic Union Chapel, built in 1887 in Sylvan Beach are just some of the possibilities. Corporate Events & Conventions We’re home to many impressive stateof-the-art facilities that can host any number of guests and more than 3,000 rooms are available throughout the county. With 29 golf courses within 29 minutes, planning the perfect golf outing is a breeze. Hosting a large convention? Look into Turning Stone

Resort Casino, Radisson Hotel, Hotel Utica, or the Holiday Inn. Planning a more intimate gathering? Try a small, unique venue like the Oneida Community Mansion or the F.X. Matt Brewery. Group Trips & Bus Tours If you’re planning a trip to entertain a large group, you can’t go wrong with: a trip on Erie Canal Cruises’ doubledecker Lil Diamond III, a visit to the Munson-Williams-Proctor Museum of Art, a Saranac Brewery tour, or explore Fort Stanwix National Monument. Let us help you create your next successful event. Contact our Director of Sales. Sarah Foster, Director of Sales 800-426-3132 sarah@oneidacountytourism.com TheGetawayRegion.com
