Hershey park log flume ride3/9/2024 Now I will admit that my wife and I are not big thrill ride fans so most of the crazy roller coasters they have here are lost on us. But our daughter loves the little kiddie rides and I’m having panic attacks about potentially having to go with her on bigger rides when she’s older. Not to mention Hanna’s absolute favorite thing to do a classic carousel.įor now we get to do the nice easy things like meet Mr. We do make it on some of the more “boring” rides like cable cars, the monorail, and the odd log flume ride. The day we were here actually was a really hot day for this late in the summer, and Hanna really wanted to just play at the Boardwalk. My wife volunteered to take her through water park area and I was able to sneak off with our younger daughter Melody (8 months old) to wonder around the park. 1) Melody was pretty cranky due to the heat and trying to get her to take a nap was top on my priority list. 2) There were penny machines to be found. Now I didn’t collect these machines in this order, but I’m going to review them as you would after first entering the park.Īs you go through security and have your admissions ticket scanned you will immediately find the first two machines. The first one is on the right of the main path just outside one of the many souvenir shops. I will apologize now for not having actual pictures of the final pressed pennies. All of these coins were collected on a previous visit a couple of years ago and the designs have not changed. Due to this I didn’t press any new sets since I already have a few of each in my collection which unfortunately is all packed away as my family is getting ready to move. So instead I took close-ups of the machine marquees that show the coin designs. Back to the machine, the set available here includes Springtime in the Park, Ms. Hershey Kiss, Great Bear Roller Coaster, and the Storm Runner ride. The second machine is on the left side of the main path. This may actually be easier to collect on the way out depending on the crowd level when you first enter. The designs available at this second machine are the Kissing Tower, the Reese’s Peanut Butter Character, The Wildcat Roller Coaster, and a Hershey Kiss Street Light. By the way in case you are wondering about the Street Lights these actually exist and are located all around town see picture below.Īfter walking up the first big hill in the park you come out in the main kiddie ride area. Near Starship America and the Carousel is the third machine. Just due to where this machine is located there are always a lot of kids around it. To be honest not many are ever actually using the machine but they always get a kick out of watching when it’s used. I always make sure to show them how it works and the finished products then they quickly run off to ask their parents for spare change. This set includes the Hershey Bears Logo (Minor League Hockey Team), Mr. Hershey Chocolate Bar, Hershey Park Logo, and a Carousel Horse. To find the next machine you have quite a walk ahead of you. It’s located way over toward the Boardwalk and is just outside the bathrooms/changing rooms for the water flume on steroids ride called Tidal Force.Ī word of warning about this area. The ride Tidal Force has a splash area that includes part of the pathway that surrounds it. When the ride vehicle comes crashing down there is a huge wave of water that splashes down over some suspecting (and non-suspecting) visitors.
