Hersheypark: Sweet Memories

Climb aboard the old electric miniature train. Take a dip in the largest pool in Pennsylvania. Then dance the night away at the Starlight Ballroom. Here's your ticket to the memories and magic of HERSHEYPARK, a small picnic grove that grew into a world-famous attraction in the shadow of the Milton Hershey's chocolate factory.

HERSHEYPARK: SWEET MEMORIES is a vintage tour of the park, beginning with its opening in 1907 and told through archival film footage, historic photographs, home movies and first-hand accounts of those charmed by the carousel's painted ponies and thrilled by the roller coasters' wooden dips and climbs.

Color - Running Time: 56 Minutes
