Big ideas for Midway

Link to Jamestown Post-Journal article.

Excerpt: Midway Park was privately operated by the Walsh family for about 50 years prior to the state park system's purchasing the park in 2006. It is one of the longest continously-running parks in the country, being first established in 1898 as a trolley park. Adler said the park was purchased by the state after it was identified as "a priority acquisition" due to the access it could provide to Chautauqua Lake, in addition to its historical nature.
