Bordered by the Champlain Canal and Hudson River, Hudson Crossing Park is surrounded by both history and natural abundance. Join Hudson Crossing Park Executive Director Kate Morse and resident local historian Mike Biekiewicz for this easy, one mile walk. Kate and Mike will share the history of the First Nations who called the area home, show you the site of British General Burgoyne’s “Bridge of Boats” on the way to England’s historic loss during the Battles of Saratoga, talk about how the Champlain Canal shaped the community and was instrumental in the Underground Railroad, and more. We will also discuss the unique challenges of working as environmental stewards along industrialized waterways and the work that Hudson Crossing Park has done over the last two decades to educate and foster the next generation of environmental stewards. 
When entering the park, continue over Champlain Canal Lock 5 until you reach Hudson Crossing Park’s signature wrought iron gate. The parking lot will be on your right and we will gather under the park pavilion, which will be across the street on the left. 

This event is sold-out.
