I can manage that.. Still looking around for all my old photos and so far i found a ton of old pics of me and the family from way back when (pre-Paramount days). My parents said they were taken around 1985-88. The park looked so nice back then. No rides just random photos of me standing around.

If your looking for more updated pics i'll keep looking. I'll keep looking anyway. I know i have over 1,000 photos somewhere.

Anyway, anyone know how i can take old photos and put them on a CD. I doubt i still have the negatives.

Indiana Beach Blows Cedar Point Out Of The Water! I'll take a old-time family run amusement park over corporate-thinking any day. Indiana Beach is to the amusement industry what the 57 Chevy was to the automotive industry. On a side note, SFGreat America, Gurnee is my home park. (30 mins away)

I hope to have Kemah Boardwalk photos on here sometime next week when I go to the park on Sunday and hopefully have a ride review of the Boardwalk Bullet.

You know, I liked this idea. I'm going to do a tour of Worlds of Fun. Strictly speaking, it isn't my "home park," as far as proximity goes, but I certainly attend it more than Adventureland, and I suspect that it is actually closer to me than Arnolds Park.

Wow, I have not been here for at least a year. Anyway, this looks like a great idea, but sadly this site has really shrunk since my TN hiatus, so I expect very few people to actually do this. Hopefully, they will, though. I will help and give tours of Sylvan Beach (by the end of the month) Seabreeze (sometime in July) and DL (early september.) DL is about 2 - 2.5 hours away, seabreeze 90 minutes away, and Sylvan Beach only 45 minutes away, but I count any park within 2.5 hours of your location to be a home park.

I saw an onride of Boardwalk Bullet and wow, it's always turning at a blazing rate.

For our friend that hasn't been here in awhile - Nobody regular here does that end signature stuff. That's so another site.

The true park I attend the most and I consider my home park is SFGADV.
Now I realize that Clementon Park is the same distance to me so I could call that my small hometown feel homepark. The truly closest park but it's out of genre for me being a small kiddie waterpark with a dash of rides is Sesame Place. I'll stick to the SFGADV listing.

I post photos in our database and on the Facebook/Space but I'm so not into the mainstream photo hosting sites.

That seems like a great idea. My home park is Six Flags St. Louis, and I go there over 30 times a year so I'll take some photos and post some stuff on the history of it.

Well, I live in Utah, and so my only home park is called LAGOON. Anyone heard of it? Well, anyway, it's small, but has 8 good coasters including a unique Tower LSM coaster!

(Good Idea???????)

My hometown park is called LAGOON in Utah. Anyone heard of it? Anyway, it's a great, small park with 8 coasters! Here are the pics: http://www.thrillnetwork.com/boards/...ms-lagoon.html
