Hersheypark

Hershey, Pennsylvania

Description

Hershey Park was created for the emloyees and relatives of Milton S. Hershey's Chocolate Factory on April 24, 1907. Milton wanted to create a more pleasant environment for workers and residents in his community than any typical factory town of the time. Now offering over 60 attractions, including 10 world class roller coasters, Hershey Park is one of the cleanest, oldest, and true-to-his-theme amusement parks in this country!

New for 2008: An Intaride vertical lift inverted coaster, Fahrenheit, will feature a 90-degree lift and 97-degree drop.
