The park is named after Lake Quassapaug, a Native American word meaning "big pond" or "big rock." The lake is what attracted people to the area a long, long time ago and in the 1930's the place became a recreation area with picnics, paddle boats and a carousel. After World War II the site became a full fledged amusement park and has been growing ever since, adding new rides and attractions virtually every year since the 1970's. Today it is a family-oriented place for relaxation and fun. To learn more about Quassy Amusement Park, visit their website here, and in the meantime, check out Wooden Warrior:
"Q" Roller Coaster of the Day - Quantum Leap - Adventureland - Sharjah, United Arab Emirates
Again, it's been a real tough time finding "Q" roller coasters, but out of the four or five I did find, this one, located inside a mall in the United Arab Emirates, looks like the best of that small crop. I'd ride it!
