My mother now 80 and I drove 830 miles to go to the park for the first time since 1967 first part of July. Of coarse it was not open but we did enjoy walking through the park and reminiscing. I spent 2 weeks a year the first 13 years of my life at the lake and have very happy memories. I hope one day before my days are up being able to go back when it is open.

I called the park office yesterday trying to see what was going on and left a message asking for them to please call me back. I had a gentlemen call me today and said plains are still to be open buy the end of June. Weather or not it happens I guess we will have to wait and see. It is a shame the way our government gives subsists to the oil companies that make a 36 billion profit each year and cannot help save a piece of history like Conneaut Lake Park which would be a drop in the bucket to what they give the d*** oil companies!!!!!!

This is indeed a very sad day for me. I have not been to Conneaut Lake or the park since the summer of 1967 as my family moved from Pittsburgh to Macon, Georgia in 1968. Up until the move I spent 2 weeks of my life every summer at the lake and the park since 1954. My mother now 79 and I now 53 have plains to drive the 830 miles to see the lake more then likely the last time for us ever and just found out the park is closed. Some of my child hood fondest memories are of Conneaut Lake and the amusement park.
