This park was technically located in Springfield Township which is adjacent to Akron. |
The video link on this page mentions the park is in Cleveland, Ohio. This is an error as the video is of this Playland Park in Akron, Ohio. |
Robert and Sue Moegerle brought several major rides in 1972 after purchasing the park -- Looper, Meteor, Skyliner and Himalaya. |
Originally owned by Gid L. and Maggie Fallon and purchased by Robert and Sue Moegerle (probably late 1971). Sue Moegerle died in December 1984 and it is not believed the park operated afterwards. Both the Fallons and Moegerles were carnival families. |
The land was sold to Ohio Edison at the beginning of 1995. |
