Oxford Lake Park Improvement Attracts Visitors This Spring
The Oxford Lake Park improvement program has made the park more attractive with amusement halls progressing toward completion. The Street Railway Co has long aimed to draw visitors from Anniston and surrounding towns and plans further additions if the public supports it. The park remains free to county residents who visit responsibly, with open cars due when weather permits and a 14 mile round trip offer for those paying the 10 cent fare. Conductors sell 20 cent round trip tickets with a 15 cent boat hire coupon included.
