1 Cedar Point Dr. (off US 6), Sandusky 419.627.2350 www.cedarpoint.com The focus is on family fun this summer at Cedar Point. Situated on a peninsula along scenic Lake Erie, Cedar Point is a 364-acre amusement park/resort that is home to the most exhilarating collection of thrill rides and roller coasters on Earth. This family vacation destination features 75 diverse rides, including 17 roller coasters; a huge outdoor waterpark (Soak City); four resort hotels; a luxury RV campground with cottages and cabins; two large marinas; an outdoor entertainment complex featuring go-karts, miniature golf and more (Challenge Park); award-winning live shows; gift shops; delicious eateries; four giant kids’ areas and more. In fact, Cedar Point has been voted the “Best Amusement Park in the World” for 10 years in a row, and this summer promises to be one of the best ever!
Cedar Point will celebrate its 139th summer of fun with the addition of Planet Snoopy, a new ride area built just for kids, a new family restaurant and two new live shows. Planet Snoopy is located just off of the Main Midway and is Cedar Point’s fourth designated kids’ area, joining Kiddy Kingdom, the Gemini Children’s Area and Camp Snoopy. This new area features seven rides, including a mini-tea cup, rocket ship, a new larger train ride, 4 x 4 monster trucks, a bouncing tower, spinning balloon and crazy sub rides. Parents will appreciate a new family center with changing stations and areas to feed children in a quiet, private atmosphere. There are also shaded areas and plenty of benches for relaxing while the kids and grandchildren laugh the day away.
Two new shows highlight the entertainment package at Cedar Point this summer. “Snoopy’s Big Bowwow” is performed in the Good Time Theatre. Snoopy and 14 other world-class skaters are featured in a high-energy ice skating show that includes precise skating routines, lively music and colorful costumes. Across the midway near the Cedar Point Beach, a new bicycle stunt show provides a close-up look at extreme biking. Skilled bikers wow and amaze guests of all ages with their aerobatic tricks and unbelievable stunts and maneuvers.
With an astonishing collection of 17 (a world record) roller coasters, Cedar Point is a thrill-seeker’s dream come true. From the towering 42-story-tall, 120 mph Top Thrill Dragster to the kid friendly 19-foot-tall Jr. Gemini, Cedar Point has coasters of all shapes, sizes, designs and thrill levels. Last year’s smash hit, Maverick, is back and ready to take even more guests on a wild journey through the Old West.
Cedar Point wraps up the 2008 season with its 12th annual HalloWeekends event. During HalloWeekends, menacing monsters, creepy clowns and other creatures inhabit the normally docile midways of Cedar Point. Spooktacular live entertainment, special areas and shows for kids, three haunted houses, four eerie walk-through attractions and more tombstones, spider webs and Halloween decorations than anywhere else, all help make HalloWeekends at Cedar Point the best Halloween event around. In fact, Cedar Point’s HalloWeekends has been voted the “Best Seasonal Event” by the readers of Theme Parks Magazine for two years in a row. Last year’s hit event, the “Monster Midway Invasion Celebration,” a family-friendly HalloWeekends parade, is back and bigger than ever!
