Join us Wednesday, August 31 at 10am . As part of the Historians’ Walking Tour series, Rick Reynolds, Ballston Town Historian, will lead a tour of the site on Ballston Lake, which from 1901-1927 was home to the Forest Park Amusement Park.  This was a “destination vacation” for people of the time as well as a popular place for locals.  The tour will include viewing the layout of the park as well as experiencing some of the buildings and structures that still exist today. This is a walking tour of approximately 1 mile total on mostly level land and takes place in wooded areas some of the time.  It is advisable to wear comfortable clothing, good walking shoes or sneakers, and protect against ticks. Tour begins at 62 West Side Drive in Ballston Lake next to the closed Carney’s Restaurant, with parking along the road.

This event is sold out.
