Day of Giving with Corn Hill Navigation on July 13th
Classic Harbor Line is thrilled to support the work that Corn Hill Navigation does in upstate NY. Corn Hill Waterfront and Navigation Foundation is a non-profit educational organization founded in 1991. It operates two vessels, Riverie on the Genesee River in Downtown Rochester, NY and Sam Patch on the Erie Canal in Pittsford, NY.
Riverie was built by Scarano Boat Building in 2022. That is the same upstate-NY company that built Schooner Adirondack, Schooner America 2.0, Yacht Kingston, Manhattan I and II, and most of the boats in our fleet across our 4 locations.
Riverie, the only tour boat on the Genesee River in Downtown Rochester, launched in early June 2023. It has already taken out almost 500 Rochester City 5th Graders to engage in citizens science on the Genesee River and Erie Canal. These two waterways are critical to the history and development of Rochester. Being that these trips are completely funded through generous donations, this is where you come in. At the present time, Corn Hill Navigation plans to expand this program to every 5th grader in the Rochester City School District and we need your help to make that happen.
