Brookside, which anchors Front Street at the west end of downtown Ballston Spa, is a 1792 structure originally built as a hotel. It ran into financial difficulties and almost closed a few years ago, and just when it was digging itself out ran into the coronavirus pandemic.
Brookside has dug itself out again, Blackwelder said, hosting over 2,000 visitors since it reopened at the end of June with expanded exhibit space and gardens. He urged everyone to drop by and join up. One of the books for sale in the museum store is a new one, "Saratoga County Stories," by various local historians (including Malta's Paul Perreault), proceeds of which benefit Brookside.
UPDATE OCT. 30: Unfortunately, a Covid exposure has caused the cancellation/postponement of our Halloween breakfast that was scheduled for Sunday Oct. 31 at the Round Lake Fire House. Tickets already purchased may be reused for the rescheduled event at a date to be determined, or refunds will be available tomorrow morning (Oct. 31) at the fire house.
