Yes this is the Redemtion Center! This is where I worked as a child in the 70's. I was the last in the family to work at the park-we lived through the parking lot--through a path--then through the beach houses. I have three older brothers. I was only allowed to work at the park because of the Redemtion Center. This was the home of Mama Leake & Uncle Charlie! They ran the show! She called me foxy lady and I was the one behind the counter handing out toys to all the screaming kids! So wish I could do it again :(

My father, back maybe in the 60's and 70's worked in the park. He fixed many games in the arcade. I remember having something wrong with my foot as a little girl, my mom taking me to see my dad at the park and we have a pic outside the arcarde together. I haven't remembered that for years! My dad has passed away now, but so many memories have come back, it's awesome!
Thanks

Just like surly girl said.

Actually a Penticle is the 5 pointed star with a circle around it. The Pentagram is just the 5 pointed star.

That has nothing to do with evil,satanism or devil worship.

The inverted Penticle or Pentagram IS a symbol of satanism.

Those of us who are Pagan or even neo Pagan don't believe in the concept of satan.

I went into the park this past summer and this carousel building had collapsed. There was nothing left but a pile of splintered wood. That might be why it was taped off... it was ready to fall in on itself.

Pretty amazing pix. I love pix of old amusement parks. Most people I have met who do them have to kind of gatecrash to get in because of al the red tape from various realty agencies,etc who own them. Really brings back some fond fond memories. And not that long ago, what...the early 90's. Conrad Ferla who use to own all this, and the Warwick Musical Tent(now a Lowes) died and, so they say, the kids didn't want to take care of it all, so Rocky Point went bankrupt (it was headed that way anyway thanks to Six Flags, Disneyworld, and the general drop off of people going to these places. Warwick changed alot in the 90's and at the end of that decade, alot of places were gone, another being the Meadowbrook Cinema which had been standing for close to 30 years. Great photos, they bring back a lost time for many of us.

Who died at Rocky Point. And why is he or she haunted it

Thanks for the pictures Motts.

This photo brings back some fond memories.......after riding the flume, my dad would always take us on this ride to dry out.....but instead of calling it "sky line".......he would call it "the clothes line"

I think part of the wall collapsed or there was a hole bashed through, tough to remember.

John Black-
Not sure if you heard about the RP documentary-Is this something that you would be willing to participate in?I think your knowledge of the park would be crucial.

MR. Black was partially right. MRB was a low life operation out of PA. Jerry DiCapua was the manager for the games and he and his family were out of Baltimore!

Cf = Conrad Ferla, now deceased. The 2nd circular ride was the Musik Express!
I remember it well!

It was a ticket booth near the Shore Dinner Hall, the Cliff House would be to your left rear. My brother Mike worked on the Cliff House as the manager.

I worked there from '69 to '73 in the games. Amazing times! I met my girlfriend there and we are still married after 32 years! I made all my tuition there for URI! $1.60 /hr! 92 hrs/week! Many memories!

so close to nature but negelated

Its beutiful
