Mansfield, Ohio: The ancient mystics used to say that if you gaze into a body of water you can see the future ... or the past.  So lets look into the waters of North Lake Park, once known as Luna Park, to see what it can reflect to us of its past ... because driving by you might not notice that it is a place with a very long history.

 

And that tourists who came through here a hundred years ago saw some of the spots that are still here today.  

 

Where the geese paddle today there was once a fleet of shining boats for folks to wile away a lazy afternoon and a sunny weekend could draw ten thousand people to these same waters. 

The waters don't change through the ages, nor does the moon, so we can use them now to evoke the past.  

Take a moment to watch this high quality video about the history of North Lake Park and take pride in your community by knowing some of its very unique past.
