Hattie Sherwood Park is just west of the city of Green Lake and has been a popular swimming destination for generations.
This postcard is postmarked August 9th, 1945 from Green Lake.

Dear Grandma -
I'm sorry that I forgot to write you all the time. We had fun on the mail boat ride yesterday. Will write tomorrow.
Love Jane.
(Thankfully the old Victorian home still stands at 210 S Elmwood. According to Google Streetview anyway)
