In 2022, Six Flags Great Adventure offered a unique collection of colorful displays, specialty foods, and new entertainment options with its Six Flags Summer Vibes Festival.   Running from July 16 to August 14, one of the more interesting displays for park history fans was the Forgotten Garden which featured many long defunct ride vehicles adorned with flowers and plants creating a unique floral garden next to the Yum Yum Cafe. Below are photos of the ride vehicles in the garden and images of the those rides back when they operated at Great Adventure.  For additional information on the rides included in the Forgotten Garden click on the ride name graphics to view the GAH spotlight for that ride.  Enjoy this guide to Great Adventure's salute to the park's history!

	Swiss Bob Vehicles	Although Great Adventure was home to two different Swiss Bob models that operated from 1974 to 1979 and from 1980 to 1991, the two cars in the Forgotten Garden never operated at the park.  These were brought in for a planned reintroduction of the ride in 1992 as part of a new Fantasy Fair section but those plans never materialized.
	Fruit Juice Sipper Stands	Late 1970's - 1980's Scattered around the park for about ten years, these Fruit Juice Sipper Stands offered guests refreshing flavored juices sold in plastic fruit-shaped containers.  The white wrought iron carts were loaded with ice which needed to be refilled several times a day during the summer heat.
Thank you Great Adventure for celebrating the park's past and for including its history in the Summer Vibes Festival.
