Wednesday DIY Tour: Downtown Saranac lake

In keeping with the theme of this week's Letter from the Porch, we are excited to share a Wednesday DIY Tour! Instead of watching us tour a site, you can now visit The Clio website or download the Clio app to get out for a walk and take a self-guided tour of our downtown. The tour will tell you the history of buildings downtown based on your location, so if there's a building in town that you've always wondered, "what about?!," now's the chance to take a stroll through town and find out!

And don't worry, when the museum reopens, we'll resume offering our popular guided downtown walking tour (and more!) for that personalized, behind-the-scenes information from one of our knowledgeable staff.

Thanks to Clio for offering this awesome app free of charge so we can all learn about history all around us! Not in Saranac Lake? You can still view the tour online or on your phone, AND you can see what historic sites have been added near you (and add some of your own!).
