GL Corkscrew lives on greeting card

Jeff's avatar
My dad sent a birthday card to me with an Arrow corkscrew on it. In the background, I could see the lift turn-around of a white woodie, a monorail, and some other small building. I pieced the surroundings together with one of the SFWoA sites in our site directory, and sure enough confirmed that it was the old Geauga Lake Corkscrew.

If you're a collector, you might want to find that. It's an American Greetings card (no surprise, since they're based here in Cleveland).

Hey Jeff, do you think you could scan it? I barely remember the old GL Corkscrew, I wonder why they did get rid of it? Was it to make room for the Mind Eraser?

Mind Eraser is right where Corkscrew was. I think that they got rid of so they could sell it to make enough money for Mind Eraser.

I think that I saw that card at a Super Kmart but I don't remember where.

Why Must they use Mulch? It smells like pooh!
Corkscrew was in worse condition than Double Loop and when Premier Parks bought the park, they took it out to make way for Mind Eraser. That's what I believe happened.
