specialk141 Posted May 7, 2006 Posted May 7, 2006 Hey Everyone.... Just wondering if anyone has an update on Strickers Grove out State Route 128 in Ross. Its a small park that i know we've discussed on this site before. I used to spend all kinds of time there as a child / teen. now i'm 21 and heard last year that the park had purchased the old spinning lady ride from Cedar Point that was closed after the 2004 season. upon hearing this rumor, i drove out to the park and did see the parts on site, however i havent seen or heard anything since then. Anyone know if Strickers Grove still plans on opening this ride in the park? Or was it purchased to just sit and die? I was really lookin forward to having such a great ride so close to home....

CoastersRZ Posted May 8, 2006 Posted May 8, 2006 From what I have heard, they purchased the ride from CP and spent most of last year refurbishing the ride. I heard that they were to open it this year. I have not heard when they are exactly planning on opening that ride. Quote

CoastersRZ Posted May 8, 2006 Posted May 8, 2006 Very interesting. I wonder if they decided the cost to repair the floor was too much to justify keeping the ride. Quote
