Breaking News Adventureland Amusement Park:Instead of the back side of water, let's take a look at the back side of the gateway into Adventureland. A carnivorous swan waits for its next victim to fall through the widely spaced bamboo poles. Small children make for a wonderful snack! The elephant tusks still look like ivory; later they were painted to resemble carved wood, just in case some numbskull believed that Walt Disney actually had an elephant killed for his theme park.
From 1961 until the park had closed for good in 1977, there was a little amusement park located at the intersection of Illinois U.S Rt # 20 / Lake Street and Medinah Road in northwest suburban Addison Illinois, known as Adventureland.
Adventureland was a seasonal operation , and was advertised on local Chicago radio, television and newspaper advertisements.
It was a small amusement park, that resembled basically..."A carnival in a little picnic grove".
