Pick a Park:

David Way worked at Lion Country Safari in the early '80's and sent me a couple of cool pics.  One is a vintage guide map and the other is a shot of his name badge!  Thanks David!

Former employee and MM fan Charles Beris has setup a website for the cause.  Visit SaveMagicMountain.com and find out more.  You can even get a SaveMagicMountain t-shirt or bumper sticker (I don't make anything off this.)
  
Roger Babin, who grew up in Panorama City, sent me some great '70's pics of Busch Gardens Van Nuys.  He also included this classic pic of Shamu at Sea World from September 1971.  Thanks, Roger!

David Porter sent in front and back shots of his souvenir Colossus coin from Magic Mountain, circa 1978 or so.  Check it out on the Magic Mountain Miscellaneous page.

Be sure to also visit The Imaginary World and it is chock full of pictures from lost parks around the country.  Theme park fan Dan Goodsell has put a lot of energy into building a site that's guaranteed to stir some memories!
  

Here's a pic of me when I was five, riding the Bumblebee Monorail at Santa's Village in San Bernardino, CA.  No tribute page for this one yet, but maybe someday.

This is a simple fan site for people who, like me, want to remember their favorite theme parks of yesterday.  Growing up in Southern California in the '70's, I am partial to (the pre-Six Flags) Magic Mountain, Busch Gardens (Van Nuys) and Marineland (Palos Verdes).  This site will have links to other fan/tribute sites so that we can all remember together!  Oh, and because I miss Horizons at Epcot, it is included in the list as well!
