"The park was constructed for $750,000, which was not a small amount at the time. But even though the United States had entered the Great Depression, the business proceeded as planned. And when the under-capitalized Washington Amusement Company failed after just a year, the amusement park was saved by Carl E. Phare, a Pacific Northwest local who built roller coasters for a living. He and his business partners kept the park going for another 30 years".-onlyinyourstate.com.
