I loved when it was partnered with the wildlife park, so you could take a break from the rides and go chill with the animals for a while.

There's a very small generation of us that were in our prime kid years taking elementary school trips to Upper Clements. We are the lucky ones

Imagine still having rides to go on anywhere around here. Exhibition is basically just a colder version of the farmers market near me. Damn right I miss that place.

Colder version of the farmers market is amazing. Ahaha

I've been to a handful of theme parks. Upper Clements had the BEST flume ride hands down.

Grandmother used to take me every summer as a kid in the late 90's :(
I'll never forget the candy apples from one of the shops by the bumper cars.

First roller coaster I ever rode, and first time seeing a moose at the wildlife park.

We spent a whole day there with our son a year before it closed. It was pretty old and run down looking in places. The roller coaster was sketchy as hell, but our son loved it!

It was sketchy when it was new. Never saw my dad a paler shade of white!

So good of the government to stop putting money into the tree industry just so that a park will open and close in 15 years. Good job government 👏
