Homoco had some big ideas for a
small company!
As more information on legendary Hot
Monte is unearthed, and the all-volunteer HMS2000 network gets
ever larger, we find more artifacts coming in for analysis
every week. |
This full color ad was saved from a
Pittsburgh area tourist flyer circa 1976 (sorry for the coffee
stains), and purports to promote a soon-to-be-opening
amusement park of some sort with a "Patriotic" theme. A close
look at the picture seems to show a putt-putt course (already
in use?) & some Tudor looking buildings.No actual rides
appear anywhere, and no other pictures or ads for this alleged
"park" have been found.
Locals in the Rimersburg area do recall
some sort of construction at the area described in the ad, but
no one seems to remember exactly what was going on at that
time. Construction apparently never got past the putt-putt
course & a couple of shoddily built buildings, all of
which are now gone, the site is now a shopping plaza.
