Description
This 1929 view of Southside Park's lake comes from the northeast. The lake has long been the park's focal point. The 1929 boating season opened in January, availing citizens to a fleet of rowboats which could be used for no charge. The lake was also the venue for an annual model yacht regatta which was held in June. In 1927, over 300 Sacramentans entered the contest. Not only was there a racing tournament, there was a contest to determine the best decorated boats.
