My family and I love to visit Hersheypark, it is something I loved as a child and something that I love sharing with my family now as a mom. I am excited to be a Sweetest Mom Ambassador for Hershey PA this year, I will have so much to share with you all to help celebrate Hersheypark 111th season (that is amazing isn’t it?) from new Boardwalk attractions to cool concerts to yummy food trucks. There is so much to look forward to for Summer 2018 at Hersheypark the fun starts on April 27th, the opening day for the summer season! Here is more information from Hershey:
