I agree, I live near there and you're allowed to fish (if you want to?) but they tell you not to eat it. Definitely no swimming. Same for the Erie Canal. There are signs warning if you fall in to immediately rinse off.

It really does depend on who your troop leader was. I was in about three different troops throughout the years that I was a Brownie and Girl Scout..

The others would let some of the girls bring their little brothers to over night trips.
