The news in Cincy is covering this..... http://www.wcpo.com/mostpopular/story.aspx?content_id=76b7df73-2080-4380-a42a-f8b5321418d1 Not a good way to treat your employees, but I've heard this in the past about Cedar Point.

Wouldn't it be funny if this information went to the news media and a story was done and uncovered some crooked things going on? _________________ Greed is what caused GL's demise and that just makes me sick.

I can't beleive that they would even treat another human being in conditions (for living) like that. Yea I mean I expect Cedar Fair to mistreat a park...but not its employees. _________________ Geauga Lake I will miss you!

Can't get anymore straight forward than that. If they treat us Geauga Lake fans bad, do you really think they will treat others any better! Just wait till those who love CP on pointbuzz get there hearts broken by CF and Mr.dick Kenzil. They treat everyone like crap! It's only about the money, but some stupid people(Mainly Anti-Geauga Lake people, also known as Cedar Point Lovers) will soon find out that there Great holy Leader is just another George Bush! _________________ (ACFG)Anti-Cedar Fair Group

I guess these students found out what "Cedar Fair standards" are, this is shameful: Quote: http://www.wcpo.com/mostpopular/story.aspx?content_id=76b7df73-2080-4380-a42a-f8b5321418d1 The only furniture in the bare apartments:  air mattresses on the floor. Some of the students have improvised. A cardboard box becomes a dining room table. A shoebox makes a nightstand. And then there are the sofas or mattresses some have been lucky enough to scrounge from a dumpster. _________________ "It's a very special ride. We want to make sure it has a proper home."

I wonder if they had a cardboard box as a dining room table or a shoebox nightstand. Maybe they were the lucky ones that found sofas or mattresses from a dumpster. I think those kids should show up on the doorsteps of his million dollar house that is within walking distance and demand he put them up. _________________ Greed is what caused GL's demise and that just makes me sick.

This is one story that does not seem to be going away quietly. http://www.kypost.com/content/wcposhared/story.aspx?content_id=b87a0680-09e7-4d78-b690-d76f9e1e908b _________________ "It's a very special ride.
