Castle Entertainment Tokens

Castle Park opened in 1976 in Riverside, California (3500 Polk St.), designed and built by Wendell "Bud" Hurlbut, who also created several attractions at Knott's Berry Farm. It began as a family entertainment center built around a castle-themed building housing a two-level video arcade and an outdoor miniature golf course. In 1985 it expanded with an adjacent rides area — adding a Dentzel carousel, a miniature railroad, and a log flume — transforming it into a full amusement park.
Operating under a medieval castle theme, the park later acquired the Circus World Jamboree animatronic band (Lucky the Lion, Lucy the Lioness, Barney the Bear, and Peter the Penguin), originally built by Advanced Animations for the Circus World Pizza chain; the set remains on site in a circus-themed area, currently non-operational.
