Winter Walk Window Awards

The opening of Winter Walk is still more than an hour away, but the Hudson Opera House has announced the winners of its annual Winter Walk Window Decorating Contest. The highest award went to the newly restored stained glass window at the First Presbyterian Church. The window, which was restored by Architectural Stained Glass in Great Barrington, will be backlit tonight for the first time for all to enjoy.

  3. I didn't see too many people walking around with bags. I wonder if the small businesses should try and stop this like the parades in Hudson. I'm sure it cost the taxpayers of Hudson a decent penny with all the overtime to get the city ready for a large gathering of what looked like people just walking the streets with lots of barking dogs. Couldn't imagine if a person got hurt walking on those terrible sidewalks or poop covered roadway how much it would cost the store owner or the city then.
