What was your best day at Lincoln Park? Share your amusement park memories with us.

The Comet. Fascination. The Monster Ride. The Scrambler.

For people of a certain age in the SouthCoast, these phrases conjure memories of happy times at Lincoln Park in Dartmouth. It’s all you need to smell once again clam cakes and popcorn in the air, hear calliope music being carried along a summer breeze, feel the drop in your stomach as you plunged off the first big hill on the roller coaster.

Lincoln Park closed in 1987, but the thrills are still as close as your memory.
