Whalom Park (fictional post-2000)

Whalom Park is an amusement park located on Lake Whalom in. It opened in 1893 and is currently owned by Carwardine Parks since 2001.

Whalom Park was established in 1893 by the Fitchburg & Leominster Street Railway as a traditional, English-style park of gardens and walking paths. It is one of the oldest amusement parks in the United States, and one of the smallest Carwardine Parks properties.

The park celebrated it's 127th anniversary in 2019 with the addition of new attractions. Maggie Visser is currently the park's General Manager.
