In case you haven't noticed, we at NPN love Halloween. Call it a fatal attraction. When we're not too busy writing about all the great seasonal events to be found at parks across the U.S., we enjoy experiencing them for ourselves. And wherever we go, you go...

It was a daring exploit. An exercise in precision planning. An adventure the likes of which the enthusiast world had never seen! Okay, perhaps that last statement borders on exaggeration. [Just...ever so slightly.] But it WAS a heck of a lot of fun...

I am friends with Art Jennings grandson and I have seen videos of him creating some of the Story Book characters. Not many people give him the credit for it - thanks!

Loved my first trip to Waldemeer Park this past May! Great place, classic rides and reminds me of West View Park that was located near Pittsburgh until '77.

I love that a Kennywood "newbie" loved the park as much as I do! The park has been locked in my heart since my first ride on a roller coaster (the Little Dipper coaster- which was torn down to make way for the Raging Rapids) when I was 11months old! I'm 32 and still cry when I have to leave the park at the end of the day!

Sad to see the Turnpike go...glad I was able to ride it this summer with my son and the next day with my Uncle. I hope it's return is sooner rather than later.....I remember well when it was 'GAS' power and you actually had to 'drive' the car.
