== Events ==
North Hudson hosts the North Hudson Pepper Festival during the third full weekend of August each year. It began as a way to raise money for North Hudson Elementary School, and still to this day gives back money raised from it to community organizations. The festival has an Italian theme because when it began in 1954, there was a high population of Italians living in North Hudson. The festival includes events such as a parade, spaghetti or pepper eating contests, and a coronation where a king, a queen, and three princesses are chosen to serve as the North Hudson Pepper Festival Royalty for a year.<ref>[http://pepperfest.org/festival/ North Hudson Pepper Festival]</ref>
