Take a spin on a classic amusement park ride!
Amusement parks are going back in time! This year, you’ll find nostalgic wooden coasters and old-fashioned “flat rides”—those that are low to the ground and bring back childhood memories of time spent at the county fair. Want to enjoy these new attractions? ● Ride a new wooden coaster! At King’s Island in Ohio, the Mystic Timbers coaster combines the classic look of a wood coaster with highspeed technology that reaches 53 miles per hour! Go to Visitkingsisland.com for more info. ● Go for a drive in bumper cars! Climb behind the wheel and take a crash course in fun at the retro-styled Dodgem at Dorney Park in Pennsylvania. Visit Dorneypark.com to find out more. ● Enjoy oldies while you ride! Hop on the Rock ’n Roller at Carowinds in North Carolina (Carowinds.com), a snake-like ride that turns you round and round like a record while you listen to tunes and enjoy the light show.
