We look forward to hosting another year of the Cycle the Erie Canal Event as the RSHOF will provide a comfort station and some refreshments for the cyclists on their way to Fort Stanwix for the night. This year's event will be on July 16, 2026. We have had many of the 500+ bicyclists stop at the Hall of Fame during their ride that day. Many of them go inside to look at our artifacts and learn about some of our Roman history. It is always a lot of fun getting to meet new folks
