So sad to see the park this way. Spent time there having fun every summer, glad to see it's starting to make a comeback. I wish they could do the talent shows again, but it wouldn't be the same without Jay Parker.
They did bring it back. The carousel was revived and runs most Saturdays during the summer. Today Eldridge Park has the carousel itself, an arcade, a mini golf, and the thunderbirds as well. I think the old bumper car arena got turned into a dining hall though, and I'm pretty sure the bathroom is converted from the old theater.
In Wellsburg NY close to the PA boarder sits a panel box truck for sale. The guy sold one and has one left. They belonged to the guy that owned Lewis mail he passed away and his son is selling off his trucks the one he has left he wants $3500.00 for it it runs good the brakes and tires are good on it it has very little rust on the cab and box panel the gas tank is in good shape the windshield wipers work the windshield us in food shape. Where it sits it will be easy to drive out. At $3500.00 there is plenty of room for profit at auction a used panel box truck can easily sell for $5000.00 to $6000.00 honestly Robert Gildea
I think they should bring back all the old rides. they were so much fun when I was a kid and I think the younger generation would love them as well.
THANK you for posting this!
