    FYI, There is a pass seniors can get.(over age 62) The state has a "Golden Park pass" which I have which is free that is good Mon.-Fri. at all state launches & parks for free launching & enterance to the parks across the state. They also have an "Empire Pass" for $65 a yr. That is good for the same as above & week ends. For the Vets. they have a "Liberty Pass" which is free to disabled Vets that is good for all of the above! I think they all include camping in the state parks also. There are 178 state parks across the state. Contact info: NY., Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation, Can call; Tom Rowland, 585-682-4888 , park manager- Oak Orchard Maine Park. or Roland Beck, 585-493-3600 park manager- Conesus Boat Launch. I am old , retired , on a fixed income & cheap also! Bailey FYI, Its My S.S. money that I am getting back after paying into it for over 50 years! get your own dam $$$! lol! You young guys need to change things back to the original intent of it so there is $$$ when you guys do retire!

    A launch north of the bait shop will su$k due to on windy days it get rough inside on that end outside the inner wall. Seems like they are going to screw things up really good!

    So sbh will no longer have the M-F free launching for seniors? The lack of access on this end of the lake let's these people set their own rules. Sux!
