Historical sites across Sussex County will be open this weekend. Obtain a complete brochure, maps and more at https://www.scahc.org/Events/ . The Lake Hopatcong Historical Museum joins the fun and will be open on Sunday October 13, 2019 from noon to 4:00 pm.
The Lake Hopatcong Historical Museum, like many community groups, uses St. Jude’s Parish Hall for programs and other events. Unfortunately the lack of a sound system has made it difficult to hear in this large building. On October 12th we come together as a community to raise the funds necessary to purchase a sound system so that the parish hall can serve the entire community for many years to come.
The Lake Hopatcong Foundation and Sussex County Railroad Club will feature model railroad in the historic Lake Hopatcong Station, which first opened in 1911 and has been recently restored.

Landing was once a transportation hub for Lake Hopatcong with the Lackawanna Railroad, Morris County Traction Company, and two different steamboat companies all converging to deliver passengers to their destinations around the popular resort. Spectacular images of the Lackawanna, Black Line and White Line steamers, and trolley will give you a whole new perspective of this area and explain just how Landing got its name. Presented by Marty Kane.
The hike is free and open to all. Lunch and a souvenir are provided compliments of Hudson Farm. Everyone who completes the hike will receive $1 per year of age that they can donate to the participating local organizations. Those over 65 may substitute the hike for a tour of the grounds and estate house. The farm is located at 270 Sparta-Stanhope Road in Hopatcong. Come on out and enjoy a great day for the lake community!
