I was shocked when the park closed..I grew up there. Camped there with the girl scouts and churches. So sad they couldn't keep it going. I have wonderful memories :)

Hmmmm... after watching it again, he's speaking pretty slow in this one... I had to stretch it out because YouTube kept blocking the audio when it was able to identify any of it.
Until i get time to narrate them myself, we’ll all have to put up with U.K. Pete.
As a child, my late-wife visited Angela Park through the early '70s with her parents, uncles, aunts and grandmother. There exists some old 8 mm home movies of smiles in sun-dappled glades which contrast with the sad afterglow of the scenes in this excellent video montage. For me there's something sacrosanct about this location that even 'progress' cannot remove.
Sad story. I remember going to visit my grandmother during the summers and all of us going there. I used to love that pool...

Great pics, info, music ... but the narration really detracts from it. Makes it hard to enjoy.

@Mad24680 My initial inclination is to tell you what I tell my home-schooled kids… “Look it up”.
It’s actually in the narration – but to save you time, it was the family matriarch. She passed before getting to see its completion.
