About Strickers Grove
Planning a family day out at Strickers Grove is an adventure in itself, as this unique amusement park is open to the public only four times a year. Located in Hamilton, Ohio, Strickers Grove is a family-owned and operated amusement park that offers a nostalgic charm with its classic rides and attractions.
Open on the 4th of July, Family Day (the second Sunday in August), Labor Day, and Customer Appreciation Day in October, Strickers Grove offers a delightful experience for families lucky enough to visit on these special days. The park boasts two wooden roller coasters: the Tornado, which is a unique creation by Ralph Stricker, the only person in the USA to build his own coaster, and the Teddy Bear, a charming replica of a classic Coney Island coaster.
For families with younger children, the park has a variety of rides tailored for all ages. Kids will love the whimsical Dumbo the Elephant ride, where they can soar through the air, and the half-mile train, perfect for a relaxing family journey.

Beyond the rides, Strickers Grove offers engaging activities such as an 18-hole mini-golf course, horseshoes, and the Miners Town shooting gallery, providing entertainment options for the entire family.
