Originally located at Bridal Falls B.C. Canada, 15 minutes east of Chilliwack, British Columbia, Dinotown opened in 1975, under the name Bedrock City. Based around The Flintstones licensing, it reopened in 1995 under the non-licensed theming. It was on Highway 1. The Ell family opened Bedrock City in 1975. Buildings were based on the Bedrock city, featured in the Hanna-Barbera Productions television series ''The Flintstones''. Three other themed attractions held a ''Flintstones'' license, aside from the Kings Entertainment Company parks.〔 The park acquired large pipe, angle iron and cement, dinosaurs from Dyck's Dinosaur Park in Maple Ridge. The park included a "Jurassic Exhibit" on loan from the Royal Tyrrell Museum, a paleontology museum in Drumheller, Alberta. As of 2000, the park had a White Spot hamburger and casual dining restaurant, dubbed ''White Spot Dinersaurus''. The attraction would have a promotional ''Kids Playce'' at the Pacific National Exhibition some years, to preview their attraction. Further abroad, the characters appeared with Katie Couric on NBC's ''Today Show'', and appeared at the American Museum of Natural History's Inaugural Trick or Treat with the Dinosaurs. Their final day was September 6, 2010. The site of Dinotown is to become an 18-acre RV park, developed by Tri-R Development Group.〔 Talks were held with the Greater Vancouver Zoo, in Aldergrove, British Columbia, but they did not proceed further. Talks with the Pacific National Exhibition didn't work out. The City of Surrey Economic Development Office approached Ell about relocating. Also listed were locations in South Surrey, Burnaby, and the "largest Ostrich farm in China".〔 As of April 2011, they were "currently in discussions with multiple lower mainland locations including Vancouver, Surrey, New Westminster and Richmond." In 2012 Dinotown LIVE was created and set up on the Cloverdale Fairgrounds for the summer and 2013 at Bridal Falls. For the summer of 2014 and 2015, Dinotown FUNLAND is celebrating family fun at Cultus Lake, B.C. on 5 acres across from the Cultus Waterpark. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dinotown」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
