Īpproximately 1,000 refugees were transferred to the fort from the Ferramonti di Tarsia, a concentration camp in Cosenza, Calabria, Italy. This was the only attempt by the United States government to shelter Jewish refugees during the war. The fort was used as Fort Ontario Emergency Refugee Shelter also known as "Safe Haven," home to approximately 982 Jewish refugees, survivors of the Nazi Holocaust, from August 1944 to February 1946. Roosevelt established a camp at the fort for survivors of the Holocaust. In 1944 amidst World War II, President Franklin D. Costumed interpreters recreate the lives of the officers, men, and civilians who garrisoned the fort in 1868–1869. Today, Fort Ontario is being restored to its 1867–1872 appearance. Development of the fort as a historic site began in 1949, which included the "Safe Haven Museum." At that time, it was used to house veterans and their families during the post-war period. In 1946, the fort was transferred to the state of New York. During World War II it was used for interning Jewish refugees from Europe (see section below). 1st Infantry Division called Fort Ontario home until the brigade was deactivated on June 1, 1940. The tunnel from the former O&W is used as a rail trail. Nothing remains of the O&W, which was abandoned in its entirety in 1957. Former NYC and DL&W passenger stations remain, as does a NYC freight station. The New York Central last had passenger service between Oswego, Fulton and Syracuse in 1951. Into the mid-1940s the DLW had daily passenger service from Hoboken, through Binghamton, to Syracuse and ending in Oswego. Both railways operated a coal trestle for fueling steamships at the Port of Oswego. Oswego is home to the Port of Oswego and once was a hub for several major railroads: the New York Central Railroad (NYC), the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad (DL&W), and the New York, Ontario and Western Railway (O&W) railways. In the 1850s, at the height of a popular water-cure movement occurring in the United States, in turn stimulating growth, Oswego was the home of the Oswego Water Cure establishment, which Stonewall Jackson reportedly visited in August 1850.

This will help you to get the most out of your Glice surface. We recommend covering all outdoor installations with a tarp when not in use. In general, outdoor installations need a bit more cleaning since they are exposed to more particles. Just perform the maintenance regularly to ensure a great skating experience and impeccable looks of your Glice surface. Maintaining Glice synthetic ice rinks is really simple.
