Mt. Gretna Park
Mt. Gretna, PA (Lebanon county)
Description/History
The sixth reunion in 1910 took place at Mt. Gretna Park, in Mt. Gretna, PA. This park began as a quiet getaway, just off the Cornwall and Lebanon Railroad. A dancing pavilion, carousel and switchback roller coaster were early additions, as well as the damming of Conewago Creek to establish a swimming hole. It eventually closed in the 1950s. Like many parks of the era with the loss of the rail or trolley lines and the expansion of the automobile they eventually went out of business.
