Many of you remember the rides at Long Point Park! After the fire the rides were sold off ride by ride, piece by piece...
Since that time, we have found similar rides of the same vintage and manufacturer that Long Point had. They are still in operation (even as we speak)!

| The Space Chaser was at Long Point until it was replaced by the scrambler in 1962 | Although we no longer have the Space Chaser, Hoffman's Paratrooper would be a decent ride with similar thrills! |

Some rides at the turn of the century were definitely thrilling!
