Conneaut Lake Park's Blue Streak named an ACE Roller Coaster Landmark!

You were the first to hear that Coaster Con XXXIII (2010) will be held at Kennywood and now you're among the first to hear this:
Our region's own Blue Streak at Conneaut Lake Park has been designated as an ACE Roller Coaster Landmark. Blue Streak, also designated an ACE Coaster Classic, follows the quintessential out-and-back design as interpreted by designer Ed Vettel, and it celebrates its 70th anniversary this year!
ACE Roller Coaster Landmarks are voted on by ACE's Executive Committee are such designation is reserved for rides of great historical significance. Blue Streak will join the ranks of Leap-the-Dips, Coney Island's Cyclone, Magic Mountain's Revolution, and Busch Gardens' Lochness Monster.
The plaque will be presented sometime this year, hopefully during a regional event of some sort. Stay tuned for details!
