About IPMC

 

 

 

 

The Idora Park Museum Committee was founded in the summer of 2000 to be a non-profit organization under Conneaut Lake Institute's non-profit status. The goal of this committee is to promote and preserve the memory of Idora Park, in Youngstown, Ohio, through traveling displays and, eventually, a permanent museum.

The committee came about after Don Schanz, Operations Manager at Conneaut Lake Park, introduced Kris and myself to each other. We both have very fond memories of Idora and are avid collectors of anything pertaining to this amusement park. Between the two of us, we have amassed an impressive collection of memorabilia, artifacts, post cards, pictures and signs. Plus, we have quite a few people who "temporarily" donate their own Idora artifacts and memorabilia to our traveling display.

It's been a lot of hard work, but it's also been a lot of fun. To see the smiles or hear the comments of people viewing our display has been very rewarding.
