The Gesa Carousel of Dreams is a world class presentation of a restored 108 year-old Charles Carmel hand carved wooden carousel. The antique horses were individually restored over a 10 year period with loving care to bring them back to life. The facility is open to the public and located in the middle of Southridge Sports and Events Complex along the Highway 395 in Kennewick, Washington. The multi-million dollar carousel is available for rides and photographs. Smiles, laughter and fun memories are provided at no charge.

Although the get together was due to the loss of a very dear friend, the loving, happy atitude she had for life made the choice of where we chose to meet. It's a fun place to visit, kind and helpful staff, beautiful design and a great way to remember our friend. She loved the bling and glitz so all the time spent designing such awesome horses was perfect. Its clean, music was great and we all have a wonderful memory to add to our minds. If you go and see, ride, look around and think, you'll be happy and smile as we did. No matter the occasion, it can be a happy and fun place to visit.

This park has everything, except a few good waterfront restaurants and beaches. Miles and miles of waterfront, fishing ponds, ball fields, Frisbee golf, regular golf, walking trails, children's play areas, etc. Just a huge huge park and a wonderful place to visit. Never really feels crowded because it's so big. Lots of events held there. Certainly worth the visit!

This is a wonderful tribute to our military members. It is a nice area to sit and reflect. The area is modern. I have visited the memorial in DC and this is a first class tribute in a beautiful location.
