The "Knoebel Portrait"
The Knoebel family is deep in family tradition |
A Little "Knoebel" History
The property that today is home
to Knoebels Amusement Park was been owned by a
member of Knoebel family since The Rev. Henry
Hartman Knoebel bought it in 1829 for $931. At
first, the family used it for farming and
lumbering.
The birth of what is billed as
America's largest free admission amusement park
occurred in 1926 when a Knoebels Grove opened
with a merry-go-round that was on loan, a pool
and a few food stands.
Over the years, the park has
added rides and attractions second to none but
still kept the home-town tradition and family
value ideals. Knoebels has been voted
USA's favorite traditional amusement park
several times!!
|
Always an honor to meet up and chat with Knoebels' owner Dick Knoebel - a good,
hard-working man with a distinguished career. |
...and co-owner brother Buddy Knoebel |
Dick and Buddy work hard and take pride in carrying on the Knoebel
family tradition. |
