\nA judge has ordered a carnival-themed amusement park in Cave City to be sold months after it was shut down due to code violations.<\/p>\n
Barren County Circuit Judge John Alexander issued the order to sell Funtown Mountain as part of foreclosure proceedings.<\/p>\n
The attraction is owned by Louisville businessmen Will Russell, who filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection as an individual in November.<\/p>\n
Russell opened the carnival-themed roadside attraction formerly known as Guntown Mountain in June after getting a loan from the Kentucky Tourism Department and raising money through a Kickstarter campaign.<\/p>\n
An attorney in the case, Emily Cowles, said parties are trying to schedule the sale for late February, but the master commissioner would set the date.
