Kennywood Entertainment Company (Fictional)

Kennywood Entertainment Company (KEC) is an amusement park and entertainment company that was spun off from Carwardine Parks. The company is incorporated in Delaware, with its headquarters located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It was sold off due to Chapter 11 Bankruptcy from Carwardine Parks.

History
The chain was split up between June 10th and June 20th, 2007 after Carwardine filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, people who had Carwardine season passes for their acquired parks were given the choice for a refund or a transfer to a KEC season pass. The parks sold were largely ones formerly operated by Palace Entertainment.

In 2010, KEC acquired Freedom Parks.
