Date: July 24th, 2013

Staff: Carrie and Kitsune

Overview:  Knoebels is a small, family owned amusement park set in the mountains of Central Pennsylvania. It's not the most widely known park and tends to be frequented by folks from the area or those who know about this hidden little gem. While not known for building their own rides, Knobels has a rich history of taking other folks 'unwanted/old' rides and moving them into the park, giving them a new life for folks to enjoy. The park boasts three relocated roller coasters, a classic 'pretzel car' haunted house and carousel that still has it's brass ring. The parks biggest claim to fame (and also their current embarrassment) is that they are attempting to build a wooden bobsled coaster, which hasn't been done since the 1920's. They've won the Golden Ticket award in 2012 for 'Best Carousel' and in 2011 for 'Best Food' and 'Best Carousel'.

Quick Update- Traveling delays Posts!

Hey Folks,

 I'm sorry for the delay in posts that's been this week. It's rather hard to update when your on the road! However, never fear! We will be home tomorrow and work on the picture processing will begin. I expect to have new park reviews, ride reviews and even a few special "around the area" guides coming to you as soon as possible!

 Cause unlike some other sites, I like to give the readers (that means you) something worth reading! So I take a little bit longer but as you can see from previous reviews, if we ride it/look at it/saw it, we report on it! So nothing is left out and you know what opinions we have on what, without a doubt!

 So, hang tight just a little longer. We're traveling home tomorrow (Saturday) and I promise I'll spend most of Sunday chained to my laptop, typing away for you.

 What do you have to look forward to?
 Well, I'll certainly tell you! We've got a review of Knoebels Amusement Resort in Elysbug, PA as well as a review of Hershey Park coming. That's what I've been doing all week, well that and being stuck in the car on Pennsylvania highways ENTIRELY too long!

 Until then, please enjoy a picture of yours truly being entirely random..

Floods are bad, I would have drowned!
