Not the same Big Dipper. The one in Geauga Lake has been there since 1925.

One of the original roller coaster cars is at the Springlake Vo Tech....

We always had a high school trip up to Spring Lake every year. Rode the Dipper a time or two. I know it was up by the zoo somewhere, but where was Wedgewood Park? I went there once, but can't remember where it was located.

I went to Spring Lake once. Had a good time. I know where some of the cast aluminum horses from the carousel are as well as some of the cars from the autorama ride (the one with the go cart things that follow the metal track down the center). The cars are in the possession of my ex's ********* uncle so they'll never go anywhere.

I use to stand on my cousin's feet to be tall enough......I think they knew.

In high school, Spring Lake was one of our favorite haunts. Even got kicked off the Big Dipper one night for being stupid, but sure had fun. If I remember right, Wedgewood was up on NW 63rd. It was ok, but didn't measure up to Spring Lake.

Can't be the same one. The Big Dipper at Springlake burned to the ground.

The Wedgewood Amusement park was located at 4101 NW Expressway exactly were the Wedgewood Apartments are today.
