Looks like the New York amusement park popular with visitors from Niagara region is looking to make a comeback.

Positive signs if taking the family to Fantasy Island amusement park was part of an annual summer tradition.

Job positions are listed on the Splash World website including openings for ticket sales, food service, life guards, maintenance and more.

Fantasy Island closed up shop in 2020 with much of the amusement park’s rides sold off...

All that remained were the Ferris Wheel, Silver Comet rollercoaster and the water slides.

A Chicago based investor stepped in as the new operator last month, no word yet as to when the park is scheduled to re-open.
