A
Cedar Point Press Release
SANDUSKY, Ohio, May 21 /PRNewswire/ -- High-flying bikers
and splash
landings will be part of the fun when a new extreme sports
stunt show and
the Soak City waterpark will open for the summer at Cedar
Point on
Saturday, May 24. A special all-you-can-eat buffet will also
be available
during the Memorial Day Weekend.
Hot off an 11-year stint in California, the "All Wheels
Extreme" sports
stunt show will be a brand new entertainment offering that
has never been
seen at the Sandusky, Ohio, amusement park/resort.
Presented in the Extreme Sports Stadium, the 25-minute
program will
feature bikers, gymnasts, dancers, a rollerblader and a
skateboarder in a
high-energy show that will captivate guests of all ages with
gravity-defying stunts, lively music and colorful costumes.
The 12-person
cast will use ramps, half-pipes and a trampoline to execute
stunts that
will keep the audience on the edge of its seat.
To celebrate the holiday weekend, Cedar Point is offering a
special
online Memorial Day Meal Deal. For only $44.95 plus tax,
guests can
purchase an online ticket valid for park admission on
Saturday, Sunday or
Monday, May 24-26, and an All-You-Can-Eat buffet meal
featuring chicken,
hot dogs, potato salad, baked beans, ice cream, cookies and
assorted Pepsi
beverages. (Serving time will be 4-7 p.m.) Special discounts
for junior,
senior and season pass-holders are also available. Tickets
can only be
purchased online. Visit http://www.cedarpoint.com/deals for
all the
details.
Since opening in 1988, Soak City, the 18-acre waterpark
located
adjacent to Cedar Point, has grown into one of the Midwest's
finest outdoor
waterparks offering a diverse collection of super-soaking
attractions such
a huge wave pool, water slides, inner tube rivers and
special areas for
young families.
Some of the "hot spots" at Soak City include Breakers Bay, a
500,000-gallon wave pool where water-lovers can splash in
the three-foot
waves or float on inner tubes. There is also the
76-foot-tall Zoom Flume
raft slide that carries riders through a twisting course
with high-banked
curves.
Nearby is Splash Zone, a multi-story interactive play area
that
features dozens of water gadgets that spray or squirt and a
giant bucket
that dumps 1,000 gallons of water on guests below.
For young families, Tadpole Town and Choo-Choo Lagoon are
big hits.
These children's areas have pint-sized water slides and
gadgets that are
perfect for frolicking and splashing.
Soak City will be open daily Saturday, May 24 through Labor
Day, Sept.
1. Operating hours will vary. Proper swimwear is required.
Admission to
Cedar Point is not required.
