 **Sackett'​s Harbor** was the headquarters of the American fleet on Lake Ontario during the War of 1812. The dance references a successful American effort in May, 1814, to evade a British naval blockade. The dance is sometimes used to teach contra corners. **Sackett'​s Harbor** was the headquarters of the American fleet on Lake Ontario during the War of 1812.
