Six Flags New England
Category: Springfield Theme Park near Greater Springfield, Massachusetts
Description of this Greater Springfield area Attraction: Six Flags New England is a combination theme and water park located on more than 235 acres off I-91 between Springfield, Massachusetts and Hartford, Connecticut. Just 90 miles west of Boston, the park is a popular entertainment destination for residents and visitors throughout New England.
The theme park features more than 50 adult and children’s rides plus Hurricane Harbor, a newly expanded water park with 24 water slides, two huge wave pools, and over a dozen other water attractions including the Tornado.
Six Flags New England is home to SUPERMAN - RIDE OF STEEL, voted the “Best Coaster on the Planet,” as well as eight other thrilling roller coasters; the BATMAN THRILL SPECTACULAR, a Hollywood-style stunt show; and LOONEY TUNES MOVIE TOWN, a kid’s area featuring BUGS BUNNY and his LOONEY TUNES pals.
Six Flags New England welcomes two new coasters in 2005…One Wet, One Wild! Mr. Six’s Pandemonium, spinning 42 feet above the ground, will take park guests on an all-new ride experience creating a new spin on the typical roller coaster. This roller coaster spins like a top while moving up and down through five stories of hairpin turns and plummeting spirals. Making a huge splash at Hurricane Harbor, Typhoon will offer an extreme 3-person rafting adventure that sends riders through a series of high bank turns, enclosed tunnels and over 800 feet of uphill runs.

Springfield Armory National Historic Site
National Park
Category: Springfield National Park near Greater Springfield, Massachusetts
Description of this Greater Springfield area Attraction: On a chill Spring morning in 1968, amid speeches and farewell addresses, the men and women of Springfield Armory bid each other goodbye as the Stars and Stripes were lowered for the last time. After nearly two centuries of continuous production of rifles and muskets used by Americas armed forces in every war in the nations history, the armory closed its gates and fell silent.
Begun as a major arsenal under the authority of General George Washington early in the Revolutionary War, the first national armory began manufacturing muskets in 1794. Within decades, Springfield Armory had perfected pioneering manufacturing methods that were critical to American industrialization.
Reopened in 1978 as the Springfield Armory National Historic Site, the original 1840s arsenal houses the worlds largest collection of American military firearms. Year-round public programs, exhibits, and special events are hosted on the grounds of the National Historic Landmark.
