What is there to do?
A number of shopping centers are a short 10-15 minutes from the Village in nearby Lockport, Albion, and Medina.
You can see migrating Canada Geese or Bald Eagles at the Iroquois Wildlife Refuge, play at the Middleport Outdoor Playground, run at the 8-lane all-weather track or revisit past at the drive-in movie theater (on Route 31 in Middleport). Adults enjoy the growing number of fine wineries on the Niagara Wine, the closest only two miles from the Village.
