The economy has been in a freefall and stock prices have been on a rough roller coaster, but business at amusement parks such as Rossville’s Lake Winnepesaukah has been a much smoother ride.
At Lake Winnie, spokeswoman Talley Green said 2009 was a better year than 2008, when gas prices and rainy weather hurt attendance. She classified 2009 as “a good year” but said she hopes 2010 will be better.
“We’re looking for a good, hot, sunny summer,” she said. “I think, like any business, we want a better year this year, but every business always wants that.”
