The Hudson Area Library and the Greenport Historical Society present: “Beyond the Farmyard: The Development of Oakdale Park” by Paul Barrett on Thursday, March 19, 6-7:30pm. Oakdale Park in Hudson is a 14-acre public park in Hudson with a spring-fed lake, sand beach, trails, and playground. It is used by the City of Hudson Youth Department as a summer day camp site, a fishing, canoeing and swimming area for many locals, a skate park and basketball area, a natural respite from the city, and a pedestrian path for those coming from the Fairview Avenue shopping area. As more understanding and support for the value of the area’s Oakdale Lake grows, through organizations such as the Friends of Oakdale Lake, interest in its creation and history have also increased.
