Amusement Park Atmosphere

July 26, 2009:
I recently returned from a week in Williamsburg, VA with the family and enjoyed some time in Busch Gardens Europe. The park was moderately busy for a weekday and I would give it an 8 for cleanliness. They had staff picking up lose trash and there was an attendant inside each bathroom I used throughout the day. Yesterday was Good Shepherd Employee Appreciation Day @ Dorney Park. A day for employees to enjoy a subsidized entry into the park and a cook out type meal throughout the day with a menu of Fried Chicken, Hamburgers and Hotdogs. The Hotdogs and Hamburgers were fine but the Chicken was very dry. Be that as it may, it was a wonderful gesture by Good Shepherd Rehabilitation towards its employees. My problem is with the filth throughout Dorney Park. I observed several feminine napkins and two diapers in the wave pool as well as a fair amount of candy wrappers. My wife tells me the ladies room was like wadding into a river of urine. No attendant and a smell that would knock a buzzard off a week-old deer carcass. Our family has season passes and it makes me question the value in continuing that purchase next year. Just an onservance from my life and times.
