OGDENSBURG – The Greater Ogdensburg Chamber of Commerce was pleased to host a new event this year – Fort Fest – a Craft and Vendor Fair in conjunction with the Fort La Presentation Association’s “LeSiege du Fort de La Presentation” – a live re-enactment of land and water battles of the French and Indian War.  

The Ogdensburg Chamber combined the two events to bring more visitors to Ogdensburg – visitors who shop, eat, buy gas, stay in our hotels, and contribute to the economic development of our community.  The chamber hopes to make the Fort Fest an annual event with the LeSiege du Fort de La Presentation re-enactment making Ogdensburg a tourist destination. 

The chamber thanks sponsor North Country Savings Bank for their continued support of the Ogdensburg Chamber of Commerce.
