Lakeside remains as a reminder of the days when this neighborhood was a surburban outing for those that lived in the city 50 years ago. Unfortunately, much updating needs to be done, but it remains a great deal for families with young children. For only a $2 entrance fee, you get a few free rides, and then you pay only .25 or. 50 for each kiddie ride. And they have a train that goes around a lake that the kids enjoy. For older kids and adults, there are only a few rides, so the real bargain is for the little ones. Look for coupons from area schools to get free admissions.
