Things Cleveland Forgot #01: Euclid Beach Park

  1. THINGS CLEVELAND FORGOT · #01. Euclid Beach Park. Open 1895–1969. Your grandparents have opinions.
  2. WHERE. On the lake. In Collinwood.. A whole amusement park on the shore of Lake Erie. We had that.
  3. THE PITCH. “One fare, free gate and no beer.”. That was the slogan. Honestly still a clean pitch.
  4. THE THRILLER. A wooden coaster from 1924.. Built for $90,000. It ran until the park closed.
  5. STILL AROUND. The popcorn. And Laffing Sal.. Humphrey popcorn and taffy are still sold. Sal, the laughing figure from the Surprise House, survived the park. Happy Halloween season.
  6. YOUR TURN. What's your Euclid Beach story?. Yours or your family's. Tell us in the comments. Best ones get featured, with your permission.
