Evangola
State Park is located in Brant, New York. This
733 acre park opened in 1954. Formerly farmland, the land was
used
to grow
tomatoes, beans and corn. Evangola's major attraction from the
beginning was it's arc-shaped shore-line
and natural sand
beach. The park has a variety of habitats including lakeshore,
woodland, meadow and wetlands. Wildlife in the park includes white-tailed
deer,
raccoons, turkey, and red-tailed hawks. Over 100,000 people visit
this park each year!
