Fireworks and Two Hours of Added Fun Highlight Cedar Point's Summer Blast on
August 21-23



SANDUSKY, Ohio, Aug. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Saturday night fireworks and two extra
hours of thrills and fun will highlight Cedar Point's Summer Blast Weekend,
Friday through Sunday, Aug. 21-23.  The weekend will also feature special
deals available at cedarpoint.com, great food options and a special scavenger
hunt with a home theater system from hhgregg as the grand prize.

At 10 p.m. on Saturday night, a massive fireworks display that will rival July
4th at Cedar Point will light up the sky with lights and colors.  The
excitement will continue afterward when the park remains open until midnight. 
That leaves nearly two extra hours to enjoy all of the park's rides and
attractions after the fireworks display has ended.  Beginning at 5 p.m., the
park's Starlight Admission is available for only $29.99, seven hours of fun at
a great price!

The fireworks will be presented by Zambelli Internationale, Inc., one of the
oldest and largest fireworks display companies in the United States, and the
same company that presents Cedar Point's annual fireworks display on the
Fourth of July.  The program will be complemented with a specially made
soundtrack that will accompany the fireworks.  This is the first time the park
has scheduled a fireworks display in August. 

On Saturday and Sunday, guests who can identify several park images will have
a chance to win a 50-inch Samsung HDTV and a Samsung 1000-watt home theater
system from hhgregg.  Winners will be drawn from all correct entries.  Second
prize is a Magellan Roadmate 1200 GPS System, also from hhgregg.  (Rules and
entry forms can be obtained at Cedar Point and hhgregg stores in the Cleveland
and Columbus areas.)

To make it even more fun, special money-saving deals are available online at
cedarpoint.com  Packages with tickets, pre-paid Pizza Hut meals and discounted
game vouchers are also available for two or four guests.  For a weekend
getaway, there's even a package that includes an overnight stay at Breakers
Express.  

As a special treat, a Johnsonville Bratwurst meal that includes a brat, a soda
and a bag of potato chips will be available Friday through Sunday, Aug. 21-23,
for only $6 including tax.
