Try doing this four times a day seven days a week, oh to be young again! We did a 15 minute routine doing magic and ventriloquism at the outdoor stage or the Opera House.

There isn't much to say about this old park that was about two miles from Saratoga,NY. It was on Route 9 going towards Wilton.
It was there for years and eventually turned into a flea market. What I remember most about this park was that right across the street from it was a large Billboard that said "Storytown is just 15 minutes away!" I always thought that was kind of funny. I did know at one time that Tommy Atkins and her husband wanted to buy it. She was the lady marshal at Storytown. It had a train ride and some fairy tale characters. I do remember the ice cream stand. For some reason, there were some cottages on the property called Whispering Pines.

The former site of Fairyland Village on Route 9, north of Saratoga Springs, NY, was redeveloped into luxury townhouses and condos. The roadside attraction, popular in the 1950s/60s, operated until the 1970s before becoming a flea market and eventually being razed for housing.
