Soak City, Shows and Savings Highlight Memorial Day Weekend Activities at
Cedar Point!

SANDUSKY, Ohio, May 18 /PRNewswire/ -- A good soaking, entertainment that wows
and money-saving meals can all be had during Memorial Day Weekend at Cedar
Point amusement park/resort in Sandusky, Ohio.

On Saturday and Sunday night, May 23-24, the Starlight Experience will make
its debut along the Frontier Trail.  Beginning at twilight, the Frontier Trail
will be transformed into a canopy of lights and colors.  Using more than 1
million LED lights, the wooded walkway will feature four displays, each
depicting a season of the year.  The Starlight Experience will be presented
again on May 29-30 and nightly June 5 through Sept. 6 when the park closes at
10 p.m. or later.

Near the Cedar Point Beach, the All Wheels Extreme stunt show will open for
its second season in the Extreme Sports Stadium.  With acrobatic bikers,
gymnasts, a rollerblader and more, this "big air" show will feature an
assortment of gravity-defying stunts, colorful costumes and high-energy music.

A great meal deal has also been added to a weekend of fun and excitement. 
Saturday, Sunday and Monday, guests can purchase a combo ticket that includes
park admission and the All-American all-you-can-eat picnic with southern fried
chicken, hot dogs, potato salad, baked beans, cookies, ice cream and Pepsi

The park will also have some special deals for the brave men and women of the
Armed Forces during the three-day weekend.  With a valid military ID, all
members of the military can purchase the All-American all-you-can-eat picnic
meal (one discount per ID) for only $5.50 (plus tax).  They can also receive a
double-scoop ice cream cone for only $1, courtesy of Toft's Dairy of Sandusky
