News: Bushkill Park opening delayed

By slnewbus

Apr. 17th, 2005 -- Bushkill Park sustained more than $500,000 in damage, and several rides, including the popular carousel, may not open.

The park was flooded in September after the remnants of Hurricane Ivan passed, and cleanup efforts were stopped by a flood on April 3.

Some revamped rides, an old-style dark ride included, were destroyed when the floods came through.

The park operators received $100,000 from flood insurance and have applied for a loan.

Bushkill Park has been operating since 1902.
