Crap! That was one of my favorite spots. I knew it would be a matter of time but that doesn't make me feel any better. I guess now our pics are historical record.

I went to Heritage yesterday and to my surprise they were demolishing the arena. All that remains is a big hole and a pile of rubble surrounding it.

There is a Facebook group also. It's called "Remembering PTL & Heritage USA"

Most of Heritage USA is now residential - single family residences, condos and townhomes. Also a golf course was added in the 1990's. The community and golf course are now called Regent Park. Many of the Heritage USA buildings and attractions are now gone; however the hotel complex survived and is owned by MorningStar Fellowship Church. They purchased 52 of the 1100+ acres that were Heritage USA and they include the Heritage Grand Hotel (which is open and operating), the unfinished Towers, Main Street USA and The Bunkhouses. They renamed their portion of the property Heritage International Ministries. www.heritageinternational.org

I was doing a bit of research about Heritage USA online and there were many articles saying that it was either reopened or would soon be reopened. Anyone know exactly what the state of Heritage USA is?

Thanks for the submission. I agree. I only wish that I lived close enough to visit regularly.

Thanks for the group. I have been down there a number of time and its one of my favorite places to shot location portraits. It gives so many wonderful back drops.

These was one of my best shots!! The grand doors to the outdoor amphitheater

This was one of two VW Buses that spent months down on the property.

Will have to go digging and find the rest that I have but never had a reason to post!

Thanks again

Yeah , I tend to agree. However, he seemed to be more stupid in business dealings than sinister. He was originally convicted for 45 years which I believe was too much. It was later commuted to 8 years, I think, which is more in line with his stupid act.

He was most assuredly double crossed by the late Jerry Falwell.

He has a new show now on the religious channel. I think he has learned his lessons.
