Lakeside: 66 Years of Fun in the Sun
Lakeside provided fun & thrills for 66 years. This show takes a look back at its history.
The sound of a roller coaster flying down the tracks, squeals of delight, blinking lights & cotton candy. Those are but a few memories of Lakeside Park. It has been more than 30 years since it closed the gates, yet many still think of their time there fondly. What began as a 2 million gallon pool in 20s, eventually became an amusement park with rides & games along with concerts from top stars.
