This one is a vacant lot now.
Opened with “Calamity Jane and Sam Boss” and “Tarzan’s magic fountain”.
Only the frame of the marquee, a light pole, and the pole supporting the “Welcome” sign remain.
@croghand Did the owner ever succeed in opening a new location?
@Kenmore Was this site ever redeveloped ?
As of October 2022, this property remains vacant with only the items I mentioned before remaining. There does appear to be a real estate sign on the gate, so the property may be for sale.
