UPDATE 2009.07.09: Camden Park
Camden Park is the only operating theme park in the entire state of West Virginia. Naturally, Theme Park Urge had to drop by to check out the Big Dipper roller coaster, some classic flats, the funkiest log flume, and one of the coolest dark rides around.

UPDATE 2009.07.06: Knoebels Grove
Spend a day at this fantastic free-admission park that has a ride or attraction around every corner. Oh yeah, they also have the Phoenix roller coaster: one of the best in the land!

UPDATE 2009.07.05: Lakemont Park & The Island Waterpark
Many rare rides adorn Lakemont Park, including the world's oldest roller coaster: Leap The Dips. This 100-plus-year-old side-friction coaster is the last of its kind still standing. That alone is reason enough to make the trek to Altoona, PA.

UPDATE 2009.07.05: Idlewild & Soakzone
An in-depth look at Idlewild, Soakzone, and Storybook Forest. There wasn't enough time in the day to fully enjoy this quaint park nestled in the woods. What Idlewild lacks in thrills, it makes up for with charm!

UPDATE 2009.07.04: Fourth of July at Kennywood
America's independence was celebrated by visiting a historical landmark and one of the best parks in the country. Check out the massive photo gallery from this amazing day!

UPDATE 2009.07.03: Jungle Jack's Landing & Zoombezi Bay at the Columbus, OH Zoo
It appears that the Sea Dragon roller coaster has had a hard time opening this year, according to a park source. In fact, yellow and orange markers can be seen tied around supports throughout the coaster's structure. Could this spell the last days for this 50-plus-year-old ACE Coaster Classic?!?

UPDATE 2009.05.31:
 Cool Springs Galleria Carnival by Myers International Midways
