I really miss these days at Kennywood! The park will never be the same!!! If I could time travel, this is one of the stopping grounds; along with going to Ponderosa restaurant. Sadly, these kids will never know how it was:( At least we still have our memories:)
I went to high school in Butler .Every year our end of the year field trip was to Kennywood .Those were so great .I loved coming thru the tunnel into the park! #Butler Senior High class of 86â
12 year old me visited Kennywood so many times in 1989 that I wouldn't be shocked to find out that I was on one of those rides as it was being filmed that day.
Wow, full blown Pittsburgher here, been going to Kennywood since the 70s, I was 18 this summer serving in the Marines, love the Laser Loop footage, great songs playing also, I've had season passes for the past 10 years, sadly my kids are now growing up and we don't go as much as we used to. I really love the new updates, the owners really brought a hometown Pittsburgh feel to anyone that visit from somewhere else.
This is pure nostalgia. It was one of my favorite places as a kid in the 80s. We'd go every year for my dads work picnic and be in the pavilion right beside the double dip in the Jack Rabbit. Great times. Also, the annual end of year school trips were great too. The good ol' days...
