Joyland Amusement Park

The park is currently on private property, so the only way you're going to get the chance to visit is to donate, support, and share the Joyland Restoration Project. They are currently seeing sponsors, volunteers, and donations, so if you want to revisit your favorite childhood place, and support a pretty awesome project throw a couple of bucks there way, and help!

I'm from WV but, I have family in Wichita. We would go to Joyland for our family reunions every year from the time I was born till till it closed. And I remember that creepy ass clown. His name was Louie. Still gives me the willies. But Roller Coaster is still one of my favorite Out-and-Backs still to this day.

they also featured a weird haunted house type ride called the wacky shack. Not that spectacular of a ride, but I never saw anything like it anywhere else.

The last paragraph is correct althought she didn't die, she broke both her legs and it really had nothing to do with the park closing, trust me I live in Wichita and have done hours and hours of research on this place

I went here only once,loved the wooden roller coaster,not sure what year,late 80s,too bad it closed.

There is actually a project restoring and hoping to re-open the park for the profits to go to charities around Wichita..

I went to this place when it was open. It wasnt that great but it was a pretty good for little kids, like we were back then, and there wasnt much else to do in Wichita at the time.

Joyland is no more. It is in the process of being torn down.

Can someone point me in the right direction of whom to contact, I have a group of photographer who would love to document this place, would prefer legal access! thanks!
