Spring arrives at 11:06pm on Tuesday March 19th. A rainy and chilly forecast for the first full day of the season is not how we would draw it up if we had the choice but the promise of sunshine and warmer days can't be far behind.

In addition to the improving weather conditions, one sure sign of spring is the opening of our amusement parks. Here is a list of amusement parks in New York State and when they are scheduled to open in 2024.

Kaydeross Park On Saratoga Lake, New York

Kaydeross Park in Saratoga springs New York was a hidden gem in the Capital Region. In the shadows of Storytown USA and Six Flags Great Escape in Lake George, Kaydeross park managed to thrive from 1900 to 1987.

Today you will find homes built on the property where Kaydeross park once stood but for decades families made their way to this part of Saratoga Lake for swimming in the pool or lake, skeeball, food and family fun.

Let's go back to 1985!
