I will always remember my times at Americana. It is a shame to see that no one bought it and kept it going. A piece of American history fades into the distance. Kings Island is a good park, but it will never take the place of the intimate little setting that Americana provided. May it always be remembered in the hearts and minds of generations past and present. :)
I use to go here when I was a kid and I rode my first roller coaster here, The Screechin Eagle! I also saw the flying Wallendas here. I really miss this place and wish that Jerry Couch would just sell the rides so we may be able to enjoy them. I know he has sold some, but not all!
I went there once with some family members when I was little (I think I was 4 or 5 then). I rode my first roller coaster there, Its sad that the idiot that bought the park closed it and just left it to decay. Is the park even still there?
Yeah. I live about 5 miles away from the place and it is still there. but it is now abandoned and sits in dissrepear. its kind of a creepy place actually. nowadays i mean
I grew up in Monroe. The first roller coaster I ever rode was at Lesourdsville Lake (it was that before and after it was Americana). I think the coaster was called the screaming eagle. It seemed old when I rode it and that must have been 33 years ago. Kings Island killed the park. It was just a long death.
Heck yeah, The Screechin' Eagle was great. I remember way back they used to have a western town you'd ride the train back to. And I remember the huge fish that were in the lake. And i remember Fantasy Farm too. Used to go there when I was a little dude.
when i was in elementary school at Saylor Park, we went on a field trip to Fantasy Farm... I found a 50 dollar bill that day, i'll never forget that... What a shame this park, what a shame.
Hello. i am a 12 year old. i remeber going to this park as a 3 To 6 year old. i live near monroe actually i live in franklin and middletown(devorsed parents) and was wondering what was the blue steel coaster called? i drive passed this every day. i cant remeber. but as a very young child we would call this mini- kings island (a amusment park in mason ohio) and wold go there when i turned 8. this year i just acomplished my #1 goal. riding coasters. i will ride ANY ride ANYWHERE.
I'd buy it just for all the scrap metal.

I know a lot of the rides are gone, plus they drained the lake. I think the Eagle is still there though, not sure.
