    What its all about...

    The Fort La Présentation Association is a not-for-profit corporation based in Ogdensburg, New York.
    The mission of the Fort La Preséntation Association is to sponsor or benefit the historically accurate reconstruction of Fort de La Présentation in close proximity to the original site, and to administer an ongoing presence.
    Our aim is to unite the community and the region in support of this perpetual undertaking through fund-raising. 
    Our goals are to educate, to collect, to preserve or maintain, to develop, to research, to document, to interpret and to recreate educational or historical ventures of interest to Ogdensburg, NY and the St. Lawrence Valley. 
    ....
    The Fort La Présentation Association has been fortunate in acquiring approximately 21 acres comprising a significant portion of the original site the Fort. For many years, our 501 C 3 corporation has worked patiently toward our goal of reconstructing this historic French mission fort. The Fort Association's property in Ogdensburg, New York is at the confluence of the St. Lawrence and Oswegatchie Rivers.
