Pavillion in Alton Bay

[Rattlesnake Gal]

Last night at my aunt's 70th birthday party at the Hilltop in Saugus, I met a nice couple from Medford, MA. When I mentioned coming down from Lake Winnipesaukee, Cathy practically lit up. Next question from here was what part of the lake, to which I replied Alton. Wow was she excited! Her first recollection was of roller staking at the pavilion. She recalled the reptile zoo, Jay's and a whole lot of other stuff. I encouraged her to visit us here at Winnipesaukee.com by telling her about our Forum for history as well as the historical photographs and postcards. Hopefully she is at home now looking for a picture of the inside of the rink, which she thought she must have. It's been well over twenty years since she took her husband and her own children to the lake... I bet she and Jack make their way back soon.
