Michael Jackson Tribute
Beech Bend Park was very excited when the Sea Dragon was purchased from Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch in Santa Barbara, California. While Michaels' life was controversial at times, his contribution to the music world is legendary. With Michael's sudden passing, we have been overwhelmed with calls and visits from fans wanting to ride the Sea Dragon. A memorial has been formed at the base of the Sea Dragon and those wishing to bring flowers, photos, cards and other mementos are welcome to do so. Beech Bend Park will open its doors with free admission to fans of Michael Jackson on Sunday night, June 28th from 5 to 7 p.m. with complimentary rides on the Sea Dragon as a tribute to the "King of Pop"
The Sea Dragon ride was originally puchased by Michael Jackson and installed in his Neverland Ranch in Santa Barbara, California in the mid 90's. It was said to be Michael's favorite ride. Beech Bend Park purchased the ride in November 2008 and moved it from Neverland Ranch to its new home in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The photo above is a picture of Michael having fun riding the Sea Dragon and the photo to the left shows the Sea Dragon while at Neverland Ranch. The ride is currently operating at Beech Bend Park and is a crowd favorite.
