Fantasy Glades....GONE. I used to live at Port Macquarie when I was a young tacker and still have plenty of family there. I was there at Christmas visiting family and asked about Peppermint Park and my family said some of it was out near the airport in a field. Alas, it wasn't Peppermint Park it was the remnants of it dumped in a paddock just past the airport on the way out of town.

Just a reminder to pull out your old flyers etc and scan them up. Cheers

Would love to see what it is though Paul

Have got some great info and photos coming. Have managed to dig up some good leads.

Everyones comments has helped me remind me of some of the attractions. The images of the grass skiing that was next to the two terrain slides has flooded back, (totally forgotten that). They used to look like Bulldozer wheels with big, bright red tread. Also, what has fasinated me is the massive, nastiest vertical half-pipe, (70's style) skateboard ramp that WAS where the mini golf was. That ramp was absolutely deadly, deep hidious vert on it. I wonder when the mini-golf was constructed if they just filled it in or did they fully remove it. (It was dug into the ground, fully concrete half-pipe. Nasty)

i believe it is. Photo taken last Christmas

Hello all, Many thanks for you sharing your information with me. If scans can be made and sent to me electronically that would be great. If my address and phone numbers are needed, I will supply them. I have a couple of leads, but truthfully, not that much. All of my emails to relevant tourist houses and council in PM has had zero response. It's the enthusiests like yourselves that are proving to be the most with information. To share with you a little about myself, I too am a PP fan. I lived just around the corner from it when I lived in PM for a short while. Most of my family is still in PM. I don't get there as much as I like. P.S. Has that arcade that used to be next to the old BOB Todd Holden car dealer gone yet? That was a favourite haunt of mine too. To tell you the truth PP had an pretty good arcade itself when I was a kid. Many thanks all.
