Greetings from…
Please keep your arms & hands inside this ride down memory lane!
Hello! I’ve been fascinated by all of Northeast Ohio’s extensive amusement park history ever since I grew up hearing about my parents’ memories of Euclid Beach Park. As an adult, it has become a passion of mine to gather, preserve, and share such memories for the enjoyment of all present and future generations!
A few of the ways I actively pursue this passion include:
- Collecting memorabilia and artifacts from defunct local & regional amusement parks and more to display at local commemorative events
- Researching and/or visiting the former sites of vintage amusement parks and other memorable locations
- Creating original artwork & poetry inspired by Euclid Beach Park and other historic places
- Volunteering as the Vice President of Euclid Beach Park Now
- …And I’m always coming up with more ideas!
I hope you enjoy the memories and history that I’ll be continuing to share here!
(Don’t forget to store all loose articles safely before the ride starts!)
