In 1735, Andre Newman acquired 40 acres of
land just east of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Newman dammed a creek to
provide power to a gristmill, thus creating Clementon Lake. When the
trolley line reached the area in 1907, Theodore Gibbs purchased rides and placed
them here at the new park situated on Clementon Lake. The park continued
to expand until the 1960s, but attendance declined and the park was about to
close in 1976 when Abe Baker purchased and renovated the park. The newly created Adrenaline Family Entertainment, Inc. company purchased the park in November 2007.
