Kaydeross Park, Exit 14 off the Northway, closed 36 years ago but, thanks to the pictures and video below, we can go back to 1985 for a moment and relive what a day was like spent swimming, riding the tilt-a-whirl and having fun in the sun. Maybe you will see yourself in one of the pictures.

Opening in 1900, Kaydeross Park covered 50 acres of fun on Saratoga Lake. One of the star attractions was the merry-go-round which entertained families from 1940 until the park closed in 1987. Today, according to Saratoga.com, the carousel's home is Congress Park in Saratoga.
