Native Son #6, Lou Little

Replanted with new stamp 08/17/06

Barrett Park, Leominster, MA
Take West Street out of downtown Leominster and turn left onto Pond Street. Follow Pond Street as it winds around to Pleasant Street. Take a right onto Pleasant Street and when you come to the fork in the road bear right which brings you onto Chestnut Street. Drive up Chestnut Street and look for the sign for Barrett Parkway, which is on the right. Park in the lot and walk into Barrett Park. Follow the trail to the right which brings you onto a sandy beach and past a tennis/skateboard/basketball court. Follow this trail around the pond keeping the woods on your right and the pond on your left. You will pass several benches and trash receptacles. Halfway around you will come to a causeway which you will pass over. After you pass over the causeway the path turns into dirt again. Look off to the right for a stone wall in the woods. At approximately 10 steps from the beginning of path look for some loose bark in front of the stone wall which shelters Native Son #6, Lou Little, who led the 1937 Columbia University Lions to the Rose Bowl where they defeated Stanford University 7-0.
