The 7th grade field trip this year is to Kennywood Park in West Mifflin, PA. In the morning, students will be participating in math and science experiments using the park’s rides. This should provide a great learning opportunity. After completing their experiments, students will be allowed to explore the park and rides.
There is a new attraction this year, the Ghostwood Estate. On this ride you are put in a “buggy” and guided by Lord Ghostwood’s spirit. In your buggies you will find ghost blasters. You use these guns to shoot the unwanted spirits. The more you shoot the higher the score.
Also a new thrill ride is the Bayern Kurve; this ride simulates a bobsled while taking you through the Swiss Alps. Of course there are always the classic rides. Musik Express is a ride where LOUD music and FLASHING lights are used while you are moving very fast, up and down. Besides rides, there is also a lot of great food! There are many cafés in the park along with the usual fast food carts. Kennywood has a famous French fry stand called the Potato Patch. There you can purchase fresh cut French fries topped with whatever you want. They have Pepsi products such as: MOUNTAIN DEW, DR.PEPPER, Sierra Mist, Pepsi, and Aquafina.
Hopefully, you have learned many important things from this article: 1. Don’t go anywhere without money (or no food for you). 2. There are loads of rides including water rides so bring extra clothing. 3. Fun will be had by all!
