A Towpath Encounter

Roscoe Village will once again offer “A Towpath Encounter with Captain John Reynolds”. Gather your family and friends and experience the joy of storytelling during a stroll along the towpath with Captain John Reynolds, an 1800s canal boat captain, and an acquaintance he has met in the village. This wonderful event will take place on August 15 & September 19, 2010 at 2pm beginning at the Visitor Center in Roscoe Village. During this exciting tour, you will learn many historical facts about the towpath, basin and locks, and you may catch sight of some beautiful scenery along the towpath. Admission is only $2.00 per person and parking is free. Following the stroll, you may wish to continue your walk to Lake Park and board the Monticello III for a horse-drawn canal boat ride at 4pm or 5pm. Cost of the ride is $7.00 for adults and $5.00 for students.
