Angela Park was an amusement park located along PA Route 309 in Drums, Pennsylvania. The park operated from 1957 through 1988. It was owned and operated by the Barletta Family until 1985,[1] when it was sold to Mirth Master Corporation of Chester County, Pennsylvania, who operated the park until 1988. After the 1988 season, the owners filed for bankruptcy. In 1990, the rides and equipment were auctioned off. During the late 1990s, many of the buildings were razed. During the 2000s, the property served as a training field for Lackawanna College's training program for Lackawanna County police. Today, the property is owned by New Land Development of Lackawanna County and is undeveloped.[1] The park's sole roller coaster was called Valley Volcano,[2] and it was designed by John C. Allen.
