I'm probably going there next summer. What's the best time to go?

I was thinking the second full week of June because that's about the time I went to those parks 2 years ago and the crowds weren't to bad.

June is definitely a good time to go, i would also suggest making a quick stop at knoebels though.

Watch the weather. Avoid Saturdays and July/August. And have a great time!

I think that'd be a very, very quick stop. Basically I think I would just run in, buy 2 tickets for the woodies, ride them, and then grab an award winning bite of food on the way out.

I don't do small parks.

thats exactly what i did too!

You are missing a grand time.

Pretty sad if you ask me.

Who knows maybe I'll consider it.

I just pray that all Intamins at Great Adventure and Hersheypark are functioning when I go.

Praying might be helpful, but I suspect the Almighty has other, more pressing requests to entertain!

I don't do small parks either. I won't even do holliday world.

Back to the original q, go as early in june as possible the first half of the week.

^Those small parks may only have 1 ride you deem worthy of spending your time on, but once you grow to learn how special the other rides are your opinions may change. I, too, used to think whats the point, its only recently that I realized how special some of these small parks really are. Having a little one in your life, even if she's not your own (my little cousin), shows you how special these small parks can be.

Small parks pack a big punch sometimes. I've had some of the best times at the smaller parks.

You will love Hershey Park.

I know.

I went there two years ago.
