For someone who didn't like coasters, I might consider stopping at Kennywood (in Pittsburgh) or Knoebels over HerheyPark. Kennywood has a number of unusual non-coaster attractions. Knoebels is nice in being open admission; you can use their pay-as-you-go scheme for people who want to have only a handful of rides. HersheyPark does have plenty of things for most anyone, though--including a very nice water park area, if that's of interest.
I would also suggest attempting to override the veto of the Henry Ford.
