Rocky Point Park...in the quiet moment just before opening
|
|
|
|
Taken from the Skyliner...
|
|
|
|
Working one of the wheels...
|
|
|
|
The Flume ride splashes down!
|
|
|
|
From the Skyliner, looking over the New Dodgems and the Flume out to Narragansett Bay
|
|
|
|
View from the top of the Flume!
|
|
|
|
|
Looking out over the midway... from the top of the Flume, I think...
|
|
|
|
The Break-a-Plate joint... noisy and dusty!
|
|
|
|
The glass toss, in front of the Penny Arcade...that's the Windjammer, in the background
|
|
|
|
The Penny Arcade
|
|
|
|
The Rocky Point train, at the edge of Kiddyland
|
|
|
|
The "new" midway, which opened in 1971, I think
|
|
|
|
|
The Milk Jug game..toss a softball into the jug and win a prize! That's the Octopus to the left, and the Rok-n-Rol behind the stand
|
|
|
|
Looking down the new midway, toward the Flume
|
|
|
|
Relaxing on the midway
|
|
|
|
The Castle of Terror, sometimes known as the House of Horrors....
|
|
|
|
Coming back down on the Skyliner over the midway
|
|
|
|
Mini-Basketball game...
|
|
|
|
|
Happy times on the original midway...
|
|
|
|
Happy people on the midway...that's the Redemption Center, straight ahead beyond the tree.
|
|
|
|
Time for ice cream on the midway!
|
|
|
|
Not sure what game this is...it could be Water Balloons, but I'm not sure...

Musik Express
|
|
|
|
On the Skyliner, over the new midway...
|
|
|
|
|
The Skydiver
|
|
|
|
The Zyclone...we used to ride this with pails of water and time its dumping so it would hit someone riding below...
|
|
|
|
Captain Rocky's boat...
|
|
|
|
The Rocky Point Ferris wheel...
|
|
|
|
One of the big wheels, down near the Castle of Terror
|
|
|
|
Behind some of the midway games...
