Electric Park to Reopen With Major Coaster Upgrade

Electric Park will reopen Monday June 12 with extensive improvements including a new 2000 foot steel roller coaster costing 18000 dollars, a 4500 watt electrical substation, and a safety upgraded lighting system. Ellsworth Adams of Chicago designed the ride which completes a sixty second circuit. The old coaster remains in operation with a nickel ride price while the new coaster asks a dime. The park, scenic and near its Indian camping grounds, plans total improvements around 25900 dollars and a rebuilt dance pavilion.
