Souvenir Friday- Lake George Storytown and Ghost Town

Covering two roadside tourist attractions in one fell swoop, this park in Lake George New York features a nice Storytown fairy talek park alongside a Ghost Town. The Ghost Town was marketed to the older crowd (teens and above) while their children and younger siblings could enjoy the fairy tale park. The brochure is circa 1958 and is a classic baby boomer park. The park is no longer open, closing in 2004.

This park actually is still open. In I believe 1984 it changed it's name to Great Escape Theme park. It's original owner then sold out to Premier parks which then took over Six Flags although it doesn't have the Six Flags "brand" applied to it-- It is still known as The Great Escape.
