Big Dipper (Geauga Lake)

Big Dipper is a wooden roller coaster at Geauga Lake amusement park in Bainbridge Township, Ohio. Built in 1925, the Big Dipper is an ACE Coaster Classic and an ACE Coaster Landmark. However, the award was never officially presented to the park. Until September 2007, it was the oldest operating wooden coaster in Ohio, and the 7th oldest operating roller coaster in the USA (12th oldest in the world). Big Dipper underwent major renovations in 1980. It has been named "Big Dipper" since 1969, before which it was named Clipper and Sky Rocket.

Famous quotes containing the word big:

    the small town big shot who, although very short,
    who although with a cigarette-stained mustache,
    who although famous for lobster on the rocks,
    left me here, nubkin, sucking in my vodka
    and emphysema cigarettes, unable to walk
    your walks, unable to write your writes.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
