Carousel Organ at Bushkill Park, Easton, PA
By Charles Schubert

I used to live in Easton, Pennsylvania, and would visit several times
a year.  I have e-mailed my sister-in-law about the organ.  She replied
that after the park closed the carousel and organ were sold.  The park
reopened about six years ago and they bought an other carousel and
organ, make unknown.

In 2004 there was flooding of Bushkill Creek that had the park in about
four feet of water.  After it receded they dried out the carousel and
organ and the park reopened.  In 2006 another flood happened and this
time there was much more damage and the park has not opened.  She is
not too sure about dates.

The owner will not talk to anybody so it is not known about the carousel
or the organ.  She gave me a web site http://www.bushkillpark.com/ and
an e-mail address <info@bushkillpark.com> if you would like to find out
more.  I moved from Easton in 1958.
