Seneca Falls, NY -- The Outdoor Sporting Center has more than doubled in size for the August 6-8, 2013 Empire Farm Days at Rodman Lott and Son Farms in Seneca Falls. Visitors will find everything they need for hunting, fishing, archery, boating and outdoors sports.

The Empire Farm Days Outdoor Sporting Center includes boats for sale and the 2013 Discover Clean and Safe Boating educational vessel developed by New York Sea Grant. The 16-foot, made-in-NY angling boat is equipped with all the gear required and recommended for legal, safe and environmentally-friendly boating on New York waters.

New York Sea Grant and the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary will offer in-water lifejacket and canoe safety demonstrations daily at the show.

On Tuesday only, August 6 from 12pm to 2pm, Jeremy Newman of the BEE Morning Coffee Club on 92.5 WBEE Radio, Rochester, NY, will broadcast live from the Center on the 300-acre showgrounds. The Outdoor Sporting Center is sponsored by Beikirch's and Fred's Tents.
