Kings Park Psychiatric Center Walking Tour

 ,   Add to calendar
 Kings Park  See map

Meet across the street from Kings Park Psychiatric Center in the parking lot of RJO Intermediate school.  The tour will last about 2 hours and will be led by Kings Park Historian Steve Wever.  Video and still cameras may be brought along.

Learn about the history of each building, the purpose and the folklore associated with the buildings and grounds. Along the way we have former employees as special guest speakers, giving additional information. Past speakers have included King Pedlar and Gil Harris. We do not go inside of the buildings and we can not permit any discussion talking about accessing the inside of the buildings.

All hikers should be fit enough to hike for approximately two hours and should bring water. If you are less-able or dis-abled let us know and we will do our best to accomodate you.

We ask for a $15 donation, 100 percent of which supports the Angels Without Faces organization which provides emergency assistance to Kings Park families.

Please register online at www.angelswithoutfaces.com or email info@angelswithoutfaces.com.

Apparently you are not the only one this is happening to. From what I understand if these signs areRead More on a main drag somehow they are disappearing in the middle of the night. Hmmm, now I wonder who or what organization could be doing this illegal act? I'm not going to make an educated guess who could be involverd in this deed but I think if Kings Parkers do some research they are smart enough to figure out who does not want the real facts of the "Uplands Project" to come to light. Displaying these signs is a way of making the public aware of the atrocity of this project. Questions will then be asked. Making a night run to remove them is, at the least, a cowardly act that should be publicized every time it occurs!

That's funny, I spend a small fortune for school supplies for my kids. I am also asked to buy extraRead More for the kids who don't have., which I gladly do. The "society letting kids down" comment is a little over the top!!
