Nine ACE members enjoyed Wild West
Fun Day at Adventure Park USA (Monrovia, Maryland) on September 11,
2022. While the weather was anything but sunny, the rain broke just long
enough for the park to operate the outside rides, including all three
coasters.
The first event in September was dampened with rain.

Lunch included pizza topped with a
special message, fruit and veggies and finished with a birthday cake — because
everyone likes cake! Adventure Park USA provided a few door prizes — an
Adventure Park USA bear, which was given to an early bird signup, and a T-shirt
and water bottle randomly given to attendees.
The pizza contained a special message.

Coaster owner Erik Stottlemyer led
a tour of the park and maintenance building. He also spoke of future plans,
including opening a newly refurbished Eli Wheel in the spring and expanding the
restaurant and outdoor seating. A new food truck to serve baked goodies is also
in the works.
Shortly after this ACE event,
Adventure Park USA announced an ACE day on October 22, 2022, during which ACEers
could show their membership card and get an all-day ride pass. Many members
took advantage, and many of those present at 2 p.m. gathered for a group photo.
Attendees thanked Adventure Park USA for the double welcome.
