Ice skating on Loft's Lake - Baldwin, NY - Winter 1965

This is part of a longer reel of home movies from my family. This segment features ice skating on Loft's Lake. It was a great town event that brought out many families each year. None of my family really ever mastered it but we had great fun out on the ice, both in skating and seeing our friends there as well. It may have been very cold but the hot chocolate at the end was always something to look forward to.

Sadly the lake doesn't freeze now so there hasn't been skating there for many years.

This 8mm film was scanned on a Moviestuff Universal Mk II scanner in 2K resolution and then processed to restore color, reduce camera jitter, etc. I plan on redoing it when my 4K upgrade kit arrives.
