When you are in Jamestown, you have got to go check out Chautauqua Lake. It is the best place in the world to spend the summer months. You can dock at Bemus Point, or Midway, and experience a few bars, or an old school amusement park, or a trip to Chautauqua Institution, all while on the lake. I miss the great people of Jamestown. last time I was home though, it seems as if alot of the good people have left. Kinda sad.

This is The Reggie Lenna Civic Center. I remember this because it was the Palace Movie Theater when I was a Kid and I saw my First movies here. Reggie Lenna was the Owner of the Blackstone corp that made Radiators for Chysler and Washing Machines. It was one of the Biggest employers in the Jamestown Area. The Reg has many shows to see and Schools go there for Kids shows. Reggie passed away about a year ago. Alot of the Lucy Fest shows are going on there this weekend.

"I Love Lucy"

Ever seen I Love Lucy? Lucy was born in Celeron, New York.

"Celeron, New York"

Celeron, New York was named by Celeron De Bienville. And he was to be said putting stones in the ground so the French could claim the Ohio River Valley just before the French and Indian War. So Far they have not found the rock plates but they have Records to show it happened.
