Cedar Fair acquires Knott's Berry Farm Cedar Fair, owner of Cedar Point and three other amusement parks, has entered into an agreement in principle for the acquisition of Knott's Berry Farm, Buena Park, California. Knott's also manages Knott's Camp Snoopy at the Mall of America, Bloomington, Minnesota. Knott's Berry Farm is a family-oriented park with six theme areas on about 150 acres. The acquisition gives Cedar Fair year-around operations for the first time. The carousel should be open to the public by 1999.
Plans call for enclosing the carousel north of downtown near the city's other lakefront museums.
The Western Reserve Historical Society has been brought in to the project as a partner to oversee the restoration of the machine. We can't be everywhere, and count on our readers to let us know what's happening in the carousel world. Copyright 1996-98, Carousel Internet Productions. All rights reserved.
