Memorial Day Weekend and no Coney Island opening 2024
Such a shame, was just reading on the CSO site about project "Riverbend 2.0". Amazed still how they state nothing was in secret and the demise everyone else responsibility, whatever.

Coney Island/Sunlite Pool Demolition
Interesting the slide went to that private collector.....wish I had noticed the advertisement. Wonder if the neon exit sign on the light pole in the parking lot will make it to the sign museum....only can hope.

Coney Island/Sunlite Pool Demolition
Questions arise to me how long this was premeditated and obviously some of the water attractions packed for shipping....the fountain in front of the Admin building and the Wach plaque...interesting.

Coney Island/Sunlite Pool Demolition
I was sad to see Summerfair has some relationship going on with MEMI....my guess the event was offered parts of the venue to save face and understand basically a volunteer organization running it, but please move back to the Eden Park or elsewhere. Let me guess...MEMI gets the parking and a hefty sum to facilitate it this year out of the kindness of their hearts...LMFAO.

Coney Island/Sunlite Pool Demolition
Saw in the threads and finally someone noticed the acres was donated for a summer home of CSO., hence Riverbend. Then years later promoters and bottom feeders came to Cincinnati. The expert on all this transition would be Mr. Vic Nolting.... Dennis, your response on all this was bs...respect you though.

Love the spin story in Cincinnati Enquirer...CSO and MEMI put it back on the Walker Family.
Would elaborate...I understand it was a sale on property, but both had vested interest to obtain overall control of the lots they controlled...and now have the parking and concessions.

Corbett foundation and others would wonder....
What is interesting is management groups find sponsors/naming rights today...what about the generous families that built it. Edit...reference to Riverbend as we called the shed...

Not sure, I know they reference the animatronic and sound upgrade to the ride in 1970....Mr. Wach or Spiegel would know or Harsley...
