Beech Bend adds new ride for spring 2022

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – After many requests, Beech Bend Park is adding a new ride similar to a former favorite.

The Thunder Bolt will be available when the park opens May 14.

The ride is based on the Flying Bobs, an attraction that many customers missed after it closed in 2019.

“We are very optimistic that this will be an awesome year for families to get out and enjoy the outdoors,” said Charlotte Gonzalez, the general manager at Beech Bend. “Most of our attractions here are outdoors, so I believe we will be back to things as usual at Beech Bend Park this summer.”

In addition, the park is hosting a job fair the next three weekends starting this Friday 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. If you are interested in applying, you can find more information at beechbend.com.
