GL Tradewinds gift shop bonanza!

What a great start on Christmas shopping! The sale at Geauga Lake today was unbelieveable.$15 for all you could fit in a bag on almost everything in the store. At 9 A.M. there where only about 5 shoppers . Took some pics of the items I picked up.Thank you Cedar Fair! http://s34.photobucket.com/albums/d123/Fritojoe/GL%20Tradewinds%2012-6-08/?action=view¤t=IMG_1262.jpg http://s34.photobucket.com/albums/d123/Fritojoe/GL%20Tradewinds%2012-6-08/?action=view¤t=IMG_1264.jpg http://s34.photobucket.com/albums/d123/Fritojoe/GL%20Tradewinds%2012-6-08/?action=view¤t=IMG_1261.jpg

Wow! That is a really impressive haul. I want the Haunt beer glass!

ebay it all! ;)

I was there today, I was the first in the store and the deal was great!! I got several coats and hoodies!! They told me that they still had quite a bit left and would probably do it again. Possibly an after Christmas sale!!

They should do something similar at Castaway Bay. Bring a bunch of GL goods there. Somebody would buy it.

I am certainly glad i went to geauga lake when the rides were still there.

Being that i am a non-swimmer, i will not be going to wildwater kingdom.

So, it would be cool, if these items would be offered on-line through

the cp marketplace. Is it may yet?

Today was a blast! Igot blankets, jackets hoodies, nick nack, cups Etc. My son bought 50 pieces of rock candy, and stuff that I was surprised that they added to the $15.00 a bag sale. For example, my son got shot glasses for all the rides from Cedar, point and several other parks and a I picked up a Snoopy Monopoly game like they are selling at Cedar point! It was worth the trip!

the water is only a foot or so deep. You can still have plenty of fun if you can't swim.

As a adult, i would look kinda funny with floaters on my arms. LOL!!!!

i wish i lived near GL!

They had shot glasses from pretty much every cedar fair park. I got a Knott's glass and Dorney Park. They had some pretty awsome things. I was so surprised to see the stuff you can put in the bag. I think we can look for a sale coming up after Christmas because if you looked behind the counter and towards the back room you can see boxes upon boxes. Didn't get my GL poster.

I don't know about all of you but the whole Geauga Lake closing really hurts me. Im actually really sad. I was there a couple times. I was there when i was 7 or 8 and sea world was still there. I remember sitting in the stands by the lake watching the roller coasters and seeing the observation tower. I remember like it was yesterday. I was there when It was six flags and again its final year open. This really SUCKS!

It is the end of a huge tradition here. My dad took me as his dad took him. Luckily I got the chance to share it with my 3 kids!! However it soes suck that they won't be able to share it with their children. We really didn't realize how lucky we were to have 3 great parks all in our state. I am very glad that we still have the 2 left.

I know that I miss GL! It was a large part of our family! I am glad we still have Cedarpoint and Kings Island! The part I don't like about the other two parks is the drive! But I know that with the speed limits higher heading toward the point, it goes much faster! When I was younger, that drive took sooo long! The whole closing makes me very sad, but I know that between the sales and going to the auctuion week, my kids and I will have memories that will last a life time! I mean the preview and the auction was an event I will never forget! It was so cool to roam all over the place and not get in trouble! I have so many pics of that! Plus after all the trips to Cedarpoint this summer, we have found a new friend! It won't replace Geauga Lake, but I love it up there so much too!

Tradewinds Spring Sale. Geauga Lake's Wildwater Kingdom will be holding a Tradewinds Spring Sale on Saturday May 2 from 9-4. For more information click here.

^Thanks for the heads up. Wish I could take part of it.

Wow, all of that for $15! I wish I would have known about this ahead of time. I would have gone for the CP merchandise. It is very sad that GL had to close though. Although I have only been there once, it's sad when any thing with historical value closes.

I can't wait till Saturday! Last time I went they said there would be a lot of new stuff out that they discovered in their warehouse. So if you went last time, come again and see what else is there. I hope they have more park banners like they did last time.

I hope to see some of you guys there!

Hmmmmm.. I might actually have to go to this. That sounds like it might be a fun time, and a good deal at that.

Sucks I have to work or we could have had fun with the name mugs again, Josh.
