Seaside Heights' Floyd Moreland Carousel Doomed
By Matthew Caulfield

The Seaside Heights Floyd Moreland Carousel can still be saved,
but only if concerned groups like the National Carousel Association
and local New Jersey groups get behind the effort.  So far there has
been a rather "ho hum" response from at least one group that you
would expect to be out in the forefront waving the preservation flag.

Roland "Rock" Hopkins, former Editor of the Carousel News & Trader,
has written an excellent article in support of saving the Moreland
carousel:

Roland is an excellent writer and has stated the case eloquently.
