Fun In The Sun At Western Playland

by Adrean Johnson

For those of you who don’t know, Western Playland has been serving El Paso for over 47 years. It is a small amusement park, and doesn’t have many rides, but it is better than nothing at all. western playland1However, it is a fun place to take children. It can be an exciting family outing, and a good way of getting out of the house.

The prices are very fair. For unlimited rides there is a fee of $15.95 plus tax, which is the price for adults and children. Children under 2 and elders over 60 recieve a free Non-Rider admission. They still get to ride the train and skyride free of charge. The Non-rider fee is only $7.00. That is a very good price for anyone who wants to take the kids, but doesn’t neccessarily want to ride. Western Playland has child rides, family rides, and a few thrill rides. The thrill rides are not very thrilling to me, but someone may find them to be very exciting or fun. The most thrilling ride is the Drop Zone. It is a 90 foot tall ride which slowly raises you to the top and drops you straight down at up to 35 mph.

Western Playland also lets people and organizations reserve the park in advanced. They take reservations for birthday parties, schools, fundraisers, and even groups of over 100 people. They have different prices depending on the group that you are trying to reserve for. westernplayland2

So if you are feeling bored, or just want to get the children out of the house take a trip to Western playland. The best part of it all is that you won’t have to break the bank. They have different opening and closing times depending on the day. Take some time and look at the website www.westernplayland.com for more information.
