This Evening on the Lake program is August 27 at 7:00 p.m. Documents discovered from the collection of John Kephart, at the Cambria County Historical Society, led society members and park staff to determine the original owners of all sixteen cottages. These cottages were owned by members of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club and sat along Lake Conemaugh. Participants will learn about the cottages and their respective owners. This is our final Evening on the Lake presentation of the 2024 season.

The program takes place in the Club House building, located at 186 Main Street in St. Michael. It is free and no reservations are required. The Evening on the Lake series is sponsored by the Friends of Johnstown Flood National Memorial.
