Reesepark

History
After two years of construction, the park opened in 1965, marking the second park in the Hersheypark chain. It had only two coasters when it opened - Reese's Comet, a PTC wooden coaster, and Reese's Comet Jr., which was essentially a kiddie version of the former.

In 1990, Monster Cup II opened. It initially had the "II" at the end of it's name to distinguish it from the original Monster Cup coaster (which'd closed in 1984). However, this was dropped by 1993 and the ride was renamed as simply Monster Cup. The ride was bought second-hand from a defunct park in Japan, which had closed down in 1989 due to being damaged by an earthquake. The damaged parts of the ride were replaced by Vekoma and the ride opened on schedule.

In 1995, Great Bear opened in the all new "Reese's Hollow" section, a Vekoma SLC that has a lot of near-miss elements. The coaster was the first inverted coaster in the state of Florida, the nearby Doubledoopercorkscrew and Doubledooperlooper coasters were integrated into the new section of the park.

In 2001, Monster Cup was scrapped to make room for a major park expansion in 2002, featuring an all-new area with a Giovanola hypercoaster, Candy-Monium!, being it's most notable attraction.

In 2007, The Boardwalk at Reesepark opened. It was built on top of the former location of Celsius, which had already been closed and removed in 2004.
