Delaware Park is one of the most interesting places, I feel, in Buffalo. There is always some activity going on at the park, which in a large city like Buffalo, is nice because it brings a sense of community to the area. The list of activities that can take place at the park reach far beyond that is mentioned in the video. Delaware Park is known in the summer for its performances at “Shakespeare in the Park.” This attracts greatly to the park and is a great asset to the social and art community of this area. In the summer, visitors can also rent canoes to take around Hoyt Lake on a nice, sunny day. The best part of the park, however, is that on a nice day between classes, it is a much better location for a quick bite to eat than the loud and overcrowded student union.
It is important that not only Delaware Park but also the other seven Olmsted Parks in the city are maintained and not ruined so they can continue to bring beauty to the often ugly and run down Buffalo scenery. For more information on how you can help to keep the parks in top condition through volunteering, check out the Olmsted Parks website. Also, look out for their booth around the Union at Buffalo State, the organization frequently has a booth during Bengal Pause for interested students to sign up to volunteer.
