In your paragraph you write "the downfall of Idora Park" and "a place that was once happy" and "the sadnesss of the situation" Bud- don't dwell on the end of the park and making crying carousel horses- this was a fun, wild, exuberant place. It's now gone into the individual and collective memory. It's gone for good and all the memories should be happy- the end was brutal but it was just an epilog to a hundred-year fantasy.

I worked at Idora Park in 76' in Kiddie land. I'm so glad that there are still people interested in the Park. I like the Idea of your project. I once ran the Carosel Ride and I could remember always looking when the wildcat car full of passengers screamed by. When the half of the wildcat burned in the 80' some people called the remaining part th death drop. Maybe you could put that in the background. Another Idea would be to cll crative corner in cornersburg . Good luck!
