Angela Park (amusement park)

Angela Park (amusement park)

Angela Park was an amusement park located near Hazelton, Pennsylvania, USA. The park operated from 1956 to 1989, when many of the buildings were razed. Today, the former park serves as a training field for Lackawanna County policemen.

The park's sole roller coaster was the "Valley Volcano." Designed by John C. Allen, the coaster was nearly identical to Wyandot Lake's Sea Dragon. During the last few seasons, the park changed the number of cars operating on this coaster, which can be seen in photographs that show the ride with four, three, and two cars on the train.
