Enjoy viewing a photo of The Castle at Lake Winnie Amusement Park which shows what it looked like when it was first built for the 1970 operating season. One of Bill’s standard facade themes, the “Kooky Castle,” was originally used for the design of this ride. If this photo is examined closely, the standard bat used in many of his interior displays can be seen affixed to the ride sign itself. This is the only photo we have ever seen of the original facade. Even though the facade has changed over the years, The Castle is still in operation today!
