Just Off Glen Podcast

There’s something almost magical about spending time in Glens Falls’ very own Crandall Park. Its centers of activity have a way of connecting us to each other.

For 23 years the Crandall Park Beautification Committee, along with volunteers and donors have been working to make the park the center of our community it is today.

On this episode of the podcast, President Elizabeth Little Hogan shares how the Committee, inspired by the generosity of Henry Crandall, continues the work of improving our beloved park.
