Indiana Beach Holdings buys Clementon Park in NJ. Gene Staples seems to be out to save these smaller parks.

These lil parks can Survive with right ownership

Hopefully he has the funds/investors to make this a successful long term venture.  Could this be the start of a new company that focuses in smaller regional parks?  Very interesting development.

I wonder if he has any interest in Fantasy Island.

I'm curious to see what his ownership style is. He's made some good first impressions with Indiana Beach.

From the conversations I have had with a few people close to the IB project, funding is not an issue.

So sorry for the double post. Just saw this come through.

Very good news. Never fun seeing little parks closed. I am really curious to see what Mr Staples does to this park. We have already seen him purchase 2 coasters for Indiana Beach

This is outstanding.  Never been to either park, but IB is on my short list for this summer.

I highly recommend it. Gene did so much in just 1 year.  It is really getting back to the Spackman years before Morgan almost ran it into the ground.

I mean, yeah!  And bringing in an additional coaster--a Swartzkoff at that!
