2009 Tours

Tour #1 – Camp Mark Seven on Fourth Lake
Formerly the Historic Mohawk Hotel & Cottages

July 17th, July 24th, & July 31st – Friday Mornings from 9:30 – 11:00 AM

CM7 was established in 1981 by Fr. Thomas Coughlin and members of the Deaf Catholic Community to offer diverse programs for Deaf and hearing individuals of all ages. We began by carpooling at 9:30 AM from the Hemmer Cottage at the waterfront in Old Forge to CM7’s beautiful Fourth Lake waterfront location in the former Longstaff family’s turn-of-the-century Mohawk Lodge. The tour was led by Town of Webb Historian Peg Masters and Fr. Coughlin. 


Tour #2 - McCauley Mt. Ski Center

August 7th, August 14th, & August 21st – Friday Mornings from 9:30 – 11:00

The August historic tour celebrated the 50th Golden Anniversary of the McCauley Mt. Ski Center. It was led by Town of Webb Historian Peg Masters and Old Forge Olympian John "Louie" Ehrensbeck. We met at  9:30 AM in the parking lot of McCauley Mt. with a history of the site before it became a ski center followed by a tour of the buildings. This family-friendly tour was FREE to the public. As an added bonus, group participants were able to purchase a discounted chairlift ticket to the summit for a spectacular view of the surrounding lakes and mountains.
