A Look Back at Riverview Park with Leslie Goddard
July 13, 2023 @ 1:30 pm
It was once the “world’s largest amusement park.” It boasted the world’s first suspended roller coaster and first parachute ride. The names alone evoke nostalgia: the Pair-O-Chutes, Aladdin’s Castle, Shoot the Chutes and of course, the Bobs roller coaster.
Join historian Leslie Goddard, Ph.D. for a look back at the history of Riverview, from its opening in 1904 to its closing in 1967.
July is UV Safety Awareness Month — and sun protection is important at every age. For older adults especially, taking a few extra steps can help keep skin healthy and strong all summer long.
Here are a few simple tips:
• Wear lightweight clothing that covers arms and legs
• Use broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and reapply often
• Avoid peak sun hours (10 a.m. – 4 p.m.) when possible
• Don’t forget sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat
