The Amusement Park and Girl Scout Camp at Pine Grove Furnace
TUESDAY, MAY 6

Pine Grove Iron Works built an amusement park in 1878 to bring passengers onto their railroad. It closed in 1900, then 1913-1914 the site was used by the Carlisle Indian School. The Girl Scouts built a substantial camp in the same location, 1921-1967. Andre Weltman, Chairman of the Friends of Pine Grove Furnace, will describe this unusual area hidden in the modern State Park.
