I'm pretty sure it opened 1971.

October 1971... can't remember the day.

I think it was the 1st or 2nd of Oct. 1971

Had to change my signature. I knew it opened in 1971, and we went the 1st summer it was open, so we must have gone Summer of '72. I was so very young. All I can remember is that we stayed at the Camp Ground (was it called Fort Wilderness back then?) and that I rode Dumbo with my baby sitter who I had a crush on.
