The following groups of pictures are taken from photographs found in the Hockanum River Watershed Area's photos and photos from each of the 4 Towns' segments.

Not all of the photos in those segments are shown in these slide-show cycles, but enough are to give the viewer a good sense of the activities and of the types of scenery you'll encounter when on the Hockanum River and its trails.

In addition to these slide shows, on the Town of Manchester's "Silk City Television" website there is a slide show on the early days of the Hockanum River Linear Park Committee in Manchester. It was made in the mid-1970s; and in early 2014 Doug Smith, who heads up the Committee narrated it.

The show can be accessed by clicking the link below, and then the "Watch Now" button which comes up. It runs for 54 minutes.

Chez Ben Diner Review

Strictly speaking, the Chez Ben Diner is not part of the Hockanum River maintenance operations. However, the Manchester volunteers repair there after morning trailwork, for coffee and maintenance-related discussions. In June, 2014, the Diner was reviewed by "The Feast" segment of NBC Connecticut television. Since the 5-minute review is available online, we've decided to include it here.
