Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox amusement park Greenhills Adventure Park was a theme park located near Victor Harbor, South Australia.[1] It was established in 1982, and officially opened in March 1983 by Gavin Keneally, South Australia Minister for Tourism.

It closed on 1 May 2016.[2]

History

Origin

Greenhills Adventure Park was founded by Margaret and Bill McKenzie, with Rosemary and Tom Builder, in 1982, and opened in 1983.[1] It was a ten-hectare (about 25 acre) plot of land with over 20 attractions.[3] To assist in maintain the park during its peak season, Meg Whibley was hired as Managing Director, along with three full time staff and 30 seasonal staff.[4]

Closure

In 2009, Margaret and Bill McKenzie sold the land to land developers Daniel McOmish and Dean Kyros, who wished to build 66 property allotments over the course of a four-stage development plan.[1][5] The park continued to remain operational, as property, such as the overflow parking, was planned to be built on.[1] In mid-2015, it was announced that the park would close on 1 May 2016 due to interest in the first stages of development as well as increases in electricity and water bills.[4] The park sold discounted tickets to commemorate their last season.[1] On 25 June 2016 the park hosted an auction selling much of its equipment.[6]
