The Commonwealth Beat with Laura LeBeau - Episode 86 - 07/06/25

"This above all; to thine own self be true."  That Shakespeare quote certainly fits the Knoebel family of Elysburg, Northumberland County.  For 99 years, through five generations of family members, the Knoebels have operated an amusement park that has thrilled millions of people, mostly from Pennsylvania and surrounding states, but also visitors from every state in the union and many foreign lands.  They've done so while bucking many of the norms in the amusement industry, such as refusing to go to a "one price admission," refusing to charge for parking, and allowing patrons to bring their own food into the park.  In an extended interview, Knoebels Public Relations Director, Stacy Yutko discusses all things Knoebels, as they embark upon the celebration of their 100th Anniversary next year.
