I was a staff/guest (mom was staff entertainer) 1967-68 & Diningroom staff 1970-75. Would love to hear from the many guests & staff who experienced the Gasthaulter Family's paradise in Parksville. |

Hey Donna,I probably worked at your wedding, as I worked at the Paramount from 1970 to 1975. If you have a staff picture you should post it on line. |

The Paramount that I remember was known as Schenk's Paramount Hotel near South Fallsburg. I lived down the road at the Next hotel and bungelow colony. The Commodore Hotel and Spruce Bungelow Colony in South Fallsburg/Thompsonville. Are we remembering the same place? |

I have tragic memories of the Paramount Hotel. While several convention weekends were spent there from 1982-1986 as a member of B'nai B'rith Youth Organization, my last trip there will never be forgotten. I was severely burned while taking a shower there and suffered 3rd degree burns over 35% of my body. 24 years later, I still have not recovered emotionally. I was glad to hear this place burnt down. The Paramount ruined my life. Kind of an ironic ending. Maybe it'll help me put closure to what happened to me there. |

I remember the Paramount from the mid '80s. I went there twice for Spring Convention with NERUSY. Will always remember the hodge podge of residential areas, seemed like multiple motels/hotels were just added on. My fondest memory is not really a memory but a family connection. It seems my dad served in the Army with the owner. Wish their was some videos/pictures of this hotel on-line. Some of the property then and now. |
