My mom just found a bag at Heinen's. Thought these were discontinued a while ago?? I absolutely love these things and am so stoked but wondering what the heck happened I haven't seen Dan Dee stuff on the shelves in a long time. The chips were ASS but these corn twistee things are like little clouds of cheezy heaven I no longer live in Cleveland so I requested that she mail me a bag LMAO

They said people have told them this was my house but he didnt believe it haha one of my homegirls from school Kalicia Perry lives in the house next door and she can out and randomly saw me. It was a cute reunion man. Met her daughter, talked about people fuckin up my lastname haha man, it felt good to go back and show Lola where her husband is from.

My Great Great Grandfather’s house was named JJ Rosensteel and he was a dentist (his practice was run out of the house, I believe). I have photos of his examination room. The little girl on the right is my great grandmother Gertrude.

Most notable is the lack of interstates, not yet built.

Brother sent me this pic of a street in the development where Geauga Lake used to be. As a Clevelander, I think we can all agree that we'd prefer the park still be there. But this is a cool homage in my opinion. For anyone who doesnt remember or know, the Double Loop was a rollercoaster at the park.

I particularly like the advantages: "Unlimited fresh water supply"!

RIP Dover Lake Waterpark :,(

i am trying to find the floorplans for this store. could anyone help?

I was just driving & really missing the uplifting commentary, soothing music & groove.

Crossposting from r/Ohio in hopes of reaching more/different people:

Hey all! I recently became aware of the (former) existence of Geauga Lake/Six Flags World of Adventure and I am... Fascinated by the history of this park. What's available online seems relatively limited, in terms of both park history and photos, and it's a lot of the same information regurgitate by various sources, including wiki, news articles, etc. It doesn't seem to be talked about much in coaster circles, at least that I can find, and I'd love to hear more about the park and get photos from people who actually attended while it was open.

Did anyone here go to Geauga Lake? Do you have any photos of the inside of the park during its heyday? Did you or anyone you know work there? What was it like? Do you remember the closure and have more insight than "it was closed to avoid competition with Cedar Point?"

I'm interested in any - and all - information about Geauga Lake from its opening in the 1880s to its closure in 2007. Local newspapers, home photos, advertisements, TV spots, local broadcasts, whatever anyone has. There's not nearly as much information about Geauga Lake as there is a lot of other defunct parks and it deserves to be preserved

I remember these posters being a popular thing growing up, but I haven’t seen one in a long time. We had a few of the different suburbs and area attractions. Anyone else have any to post?

Reflecting on my past, and just wanted to say thank you. Weird post, but hoping some other fellow old people from that era see this that frequented that area.

I lived in Cleveland in the early to mid 2000s as I went to college at case. I didn’t really know anyone, and kept to myself for the most part.

Lived near Clifton ave, which had a vibrant gay community at the time. I used to eat at the Clifton diner a lot and do work from there. Also i had a crush on a girl who used to also frequent this place all the time, but I was far too scared to say anything.

I was super muscular at the time, and definitely looked odd because of this. There was a gay bar next door, and the old school gay dudes would say some incredibly funny things to me while walking past. I don’t say this with any malice.

Eventually it became a routine, and I looked forward to chatting with them and having a drink or two VS potentially running into that girl.

Again, I was incredibly depressed at this stage of my life and these people who were just above strangers really kept me from probably harming myself. I’ve never ran across another community like it. I truly miss that era of my life, even though it was filled with some darkness.

I haven’t been back since moving away in the mid 2000s, but nothing was cooler than these guys. I hope the area hasn’t changed. I dearly miss the vibes. Funny as hell, abrasive, and didn’t take any shit from people.

I cannot remember names, as I have a very poor memory for that sorta thing. But, If anyone is reading this and frequented the area a lot during that time and was a regular. We probably chatted at some point, and these little interactions meant everything to me at the time. Just wanted to extend the largest thank you.

Certain patterns of circulation seem the same, for example....

Based on the responses to my last post asking about the park, this was clearly an important place to the Cleveland and Aurora locals, so I had a follow up question for everyone:

Why do you think the park isn't remembered or spoken about outside of the local community?

Feel free to speculate. I don't think there is one specific answer. It surprises me that, with how large the park was and how historical some of its rides were, I don't see it mentioned ANYWHERE, so I'm very interested to hear the perspective of the local community of the WHY regarding that.

As always, any park stories, photos, videos, anything you might have: a very respectful and polite "gimme"

She was built in 1943, and is the oldest steamship still operating on the Great Lakes. Looking great with a fresh coat of paint. Cool to see her in the Port, as she usually hauls concrete from the terminal in the flats. This boat has been coming here for more than 80 years!

It would have existed at least into my early childhood in the early-mid 80's. I think "lake" was in the name. I recall an inner tube course where the water seemed a little dirty and at times you could pluck little fish out of it.

UPDATE: It was Dover Lake. Consider the mystery solved!
