Slade Just as any park has its crunch time in the month, week and days that lead up to the new season opening day, the staff of Amusement Today feels the same crunch with the short timeframes involved in both the Golden Ticket print issue and all the details that go into the GTA event and awards ceremony.

Highlights • Cedar Fair reported record net revenues of $595 million in the third quarter. The 1% increase over last year’s record results reflects the Company’s continued success in increasing average in-park guest per capita spending1 across all categories. • Net revenues on a comparable-park basis through Sunday, November 2, 2014, were up 2%, driven by a 3% increase in average in-park guest per capita spending, which was offset somewhat by a less than 1% decline in attendance. • With more than 95% of its operating days complete, the Company expects to achieve full-year net revenues at the low end of its current revenue guidance range of $1.15 billion to $1.17 billion. It also anticipates being at the low end of its current Adjusted EBITDA guidance range of $425 million to $435 million. • The Company continues to believe in the strength of its business model and, with an Adjusted EBITDA CAGR of 4% since 2012, is on track to achieve its FUNforward long-term growth goal of $450 million or more in Adjusted EBITDA by its original target of 2016. • Cedar Fair’s Board of Directors declared a 7% increase in its quarterly cash distribution to $0.75 per limited partner (LP) unit, payable December 15, 2014.

  • ACE's Scandinavian Sojourn
    ACE’s Scandinavian Sojourn : A Southerner’s Perspective Story by: Richard Bostic, assisted by Ronny Cook When I went on the ACEspana trip back in 2009, it was by far one of the most amazing vacations I have ever experienced. In addition to getting to visit parks in a different culture than we see here, it is also a great opportunity to spend time with fellow enthusiasts and grow friendships while enjoying our common interests. When Scandinavia Sojourn was announced for the summer of 2011, I knew it was a trip I could not miss. Since the 2009 trip was my first trip to Europe I thought that there was no way the over- all experience could be better in Scandinavia. I was wrong. We landed in Helsinki, Finland around 1300 the day before we were required to be at the hotel to meet with the group. Helsinki is an interesting city and fairly new compared to many cities in Europe. Walking around the city you can see the Russian influence in the city’s architecture. In fact, many movies during the cold war would use Helsinki to shoot scenes that are supposed to be set in the Soviet Union. After making our way to the Crowne Plaza Hotel and getting a quick lunch at the hotel restaurant we decided to spend the remaining time that afternoon checking out some of the sites around our hotel. Some of these sites included the Temppeliaukio Church inside of a rock formation, the train station, Routatientori Square and National Theater, and a couple of the city’s art museums.

  • The Retreat at Geauga Lake
    THE RETREAT AT GEAUGA LAKE Kate Jackson ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS To my parents who grew up going to Geauga Lake and also took me when I was a child. Your nostalgia of this park, are what inspired this project. Thank you for your unending love and support. I love you both so much and I hope this project brings some justice to this park. To my God, who has given me far more grace and mercy than I could ever hope to deserve. To my professors, whose guidance and support has been invaluable throughout this entire process. TABLE OF CONTENTS 03 History 6 Background 8 Timeline 009 Site 11 Context 13 Demographics 15 Site Conditions 017 Design 21 Design process 22 Abstract 23 Site Plan 29 Floor Plans 45 Section 47 Details 058 Appendix 60 Bibliography 061 Signatures 2 3 HISTORY SITE HISTORY Originally named Giles Pond, after settler Sullivan Giles, Geuaga Lake became a scenic destination to visitors of Aurora, Ohio. In the 1880’s this land became designated as picnic space, dance hall, and cottages for vacationers to enjoy. In 1887, the park opened under the name Geauga Lake. The name itself comes from the Native American word “Sheauga” which means raccoon. Before the turn of the 20th century, the park expanded to include small rides, roller rink, photo gallery, billiard hall, and bowling alley, and a hotel on the far side of the lake. In the 1920’s the park saw the erection of the park’s first roller coaster, the Big Dipper. Overtime, the park changed hands, and SeaWorld opened across the lake.

    From your friends at Jackson Auto Worx JULY 2019 Summer’s Literal Ups and Downs It is said that life is a rollercoaster. It is also true that rollercoasters are, uh… rollercoasters. As summer is firmly here, we at Braking News are taking the plunge into one of America’s beloved summer pastimes; amusement parks. And specifically the thrilling feel of danger and excitement engineered for safety and mass consumption, the rollercoaster. • There are more amusement and theme parks in the United States than in any other country in the world. • According to the Roller Coaster DataBase, there were 4,639 coasters in operation around the world in 2018 — 4,455 of them steel, 184 wooden (3 of the woodies have loops in them! Take that, preconceived childhood notions!) • Of those 4,639 rollercoasters in the world, 19 of them are found in Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia California, the largest number of rollercoasters in any one park anywhere in the world. • California may host the park with the greatest number of coasters, but in order to experience the fastest roller coaster in the world, you’ll need to travel to the other side of the world. The fastest roller coaster, “Formula Rossa” ride, is located in Abu Dhabi’s Formula One theme park and launches its riders to a top speed of 149 miles per hour. • According to Guinness World Records, Bakken, located in Klampenborg, Denmark, opened in 1583 and is currently the oldest operating amusement park in the world. • The worlds fastest coaster may be in Abu Dhabi, but he tallest roller coaster is in the Six Flags Great Adventure Park in New Jersey.
