Large free parking lot, $5 to enter and then more if you wish to add ride tickets. Half the rides are not working but those that are, are cool. Great to see lots of local families here with kids and …Full review by nohandlelah

Q:
Does anyone have any information on how to obtain a photo permit? I have tried calling (~7 times), emailing (~4 times), and going to the office in person over the last 6 weeks. No one has replied to my messages. If anyone has a name or any information on how to get a photo permit that would be greatly appreciated!

Well, yes, they do have restrictions on taking pictures. If you are taking "family" shots, that's okay. But, if you are taking pictures of the park, the architecture, or anything but other people, they do not allow it. They don't even allow it with any kind of permit. If you are planning on going there with your family, and want to take pictures of your family enjoying the rides, they probably won't bother you, and, if they do, they'll just ask you to sign an agreement saying you won't sell any of the pictures. If you are planning on going there to take pictures of the architecture, go straight to the security office once you arrive, and explain to them what you want to do. They'll probably tell you what I just told you. I do not know the reasoning, but I suspect it is because they want to "sell" the pictures of their historic park, contract for royalties, or otherwise make money off the deal. The park is cool, and historic, but they are a bit protective about their legal rights. It probably has something to do with the accident at the stock car track they used to run, (you will see it just south and west of the park. In 1984, a stock car lost control, ended up in the stands, and killed a spectator. The park was sued, shut down the stock car racing, and the track has sat there rotting ever since. They don't even paint it.
