Opening Day at the Carousel for All Children!

at Willowbrook Park

By: Greenbelt copy
Be one of the first to take a ride on The World's Finest Classic Victorian Carousel.  This year marks the Carousel's 10th anniversary and boy are they having a party!  This Saturday, May 1st from 12:00-5:00 the Greenbelt is hosting a Grand Opening Day complete with face-painting, a wildflower activities, field games, the Adopt-A-Pet program and something new this year---a Monkey Bridge hosted by the Boy Scouts of America. 

Since 1999 The Carousel For All Children has been bringing old-fashioned fun back to Staten Island. Kids of all ages can climb aboard their favorite hand-carved wooden animal figure and enjoy one of yesteryear's most popular pastimes in one of the Greenbelt's loveliest settings.

From May through October the Greenbelt Conservancy is pleased to be able to offer families this enjoyable and affordable experience.  The May Schedule is as follows:  Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 11:00 am to 5:45 pm. In June it is open from Wednesdays to Sundays and starting in July it is open all week.

The Carousel is open on all major holidays through October. Carousel rides are just $1.50 per person. 

The Carousel telephone number (seasonal only) is 718-477-0605
