Steve and Cathryn Larkin lived and maintained the Mabee House property from 1987 to 1993, having two of their children born on site. They are still fascinated by the history and evolution of this historical landmark, and are excited to share their memories with you.

Join us for a spooky evening! We’ll kindle the campfire, roast s’mores, and take an after-dark tour of the Mabee Farm while sharing local ghost stories and tall tales.

This year, the popular Mohawk river paddling tours return to both Schenectady and Waterford. For centuries, our region's history has revolved around the mighty Mohawk River.

The Stockade and its secrets come to life on this behind-the-scenes journey through the neighborhood.

Led by historian John Gearing, we’ll make — and sample — a variety of historic libations, made with gin.

Save this special Saturday in September in the Stockade as a day to relax, listen to some great music, chat with friends and costumed characters all while strolling through three centuries of our fabulous history in New York’s oldest registered historic district! This will be our 58th year of these Walkabouts, starting way back in the 1950s. Several neighbors have graciously agreed to open the interior of their homes to neighbors and visitors and tell secrets of the architecture and stories of the families that lived in them.
