Question: What reason led to the creation of the small town of Lakeside, where the Lakeside Amusement Park is located?

Answer: The town of Lakeside was created to bypass Denver’s strict liquor laws in the early 1900s, allowing the amusement park to serve alcohol.

The Lakeside Amusement Park opened in 1908 and is the oldest amusement park in Colorado, still operating in its original location.
