Riding the Gatekeeper

BY TODD GARDNER At Cedar Points Media Day on Thursday, while waiting to take my first ride on The Gatekeeper, Cedar Points newest attraction, I felt the anticipation and excitement building. That anticipation was prolonged as we were told a rider needed to get on before us. That rider was Matt Ouimet, President and CEO of Cedar Point. My companion joked to Ouimet that he was prolonging her nervousness. He assured her she would love the ride and that it is one of the smoothest rides he has ever been on. When we had our turn riding The Gatekeeper, that was the word that ran through my mind--smooth. Cedar Point wants to focus The Gatekeeper as a ride for the family, something I believe they have accomplished. The Gatekeeper is simply a fun ride. The smooth transitions make this coaster one that can reach a broader audience. The thrill of riding a big coaster is there without the feel of being whipped around that you can experience on other coasters. To make The Gatekeeper a reality, Cedar Point again teamed up with long-time partner Bolliger & Mabillard of Monthey, Switzerland. The world-record-breaking coaster took over a year to design before being fabricated in southern Ohio. The Gatekeeper is completely Ohiomade. The Gatekeeper is a wing roller coaster, which means the riders are set off to each side of the track instead of above or below it. This gives the rider the unique feeling of flying.

It has the longest track length (4,164 feet), tallest drop (164 feet) and most inversions (six) of any wing roller coaster in the world, at speeds approaching 70 miles per hour. Something else that Cedar Point wanted to accomplish with the Gatekeeper was opening up views of Lake Erie. By placing the ride along the coastline, it was possible to make new sight-lines of the lake. This greatly improves the whole park and takes advantage of the Lake Erie shoreline location. The front entrance to the park was totally redesigned to accommodate the new coaster. It truly is exciting to walk up to the front gates of the park with The Gatekeeper soaring over your head. For the past 15 years Cedar Point has been voted the best amusement park on the planet. The 2013 improvements promise to keep that winning streak going. The Gatekeeper not only adds another thrill ride to the park, it makes Cedar Point an even more enjoyable place to spend a day.

New at Cedar Point for 2013

Dinosaurs Alive!, an island inhabited by lifelike prehistoric creatures, is back for a second year with a newly-hatched exhibit featuring dinosaurs so cute and tiny, youll want to take them home with you. Fast Lane has returned along with the new Fast Lane Plus, which includes unlimited rides on GateKeeper and Top Thrill Dragster as well as more than 20 other attractions. On Broadway in the Aldrich Theatre is an all new Broadway revue show beginning June 8, featuring show-stopping musical moments from the past and present.

The Beach Band is an all-new midway brass band that will stroll the park and play an eclectic collection of band tunes. Frontier Trail has been inhabited with a band of town folk that will interact and entertain all those who stroll through their neck of the woods. Frontier Merchant opens in Frontiertown, a re-themed cabin on the trail that features handcrafted wood items. With the addition of GateKeeper, Cedar Points new main gate has undergone major renovations and uses cameras, rather than turnstiles. Guests can save $10 by buying single-day adult tickets online.

From May 17-19, ALL students in kindergarten through college may purchase a one-day ticket for $39.99. From May 17-19, all Season and Platinum Passholders can purchase a Bring-a-Friend ticket for $27.50 and enjoy discounted rates at Hotel Breakers, Sandcastle Suites and Breakers Express. From May 25-27, all active, retired or honorably-discharged members of the United States Armed Forces can receive one free regular admission ticket to Cedar Point with valid ID. Additional tickets may be purchased for spouse and children at the normal military discount price of $39.99.

Kiwanis honors Officers of the Year

On Wednesday Port Clinton Kiwanis honored the Ottawa County Sheriff s Office Deputy of the Year and the Port Clinton Police Department Officer of the Year. This year both rewards honored two recipients. The Ottawa County Sheriff s Office Deputies of the Year are Deputy Marc Nye and his K9 partner Nero. Nye is a nine year veteran of the Ottawa County Sheriff s office. He began as a corrections officer in 2004, was promoted to the Patrol division in 2006 and was promoted to K9 Handler in 2012. He is also a member of the Ottawa County Sheriff s Office Special Response Team. Nero is a 3 year old Belgian Malinois who received his training in Columbus and Fremont. He is a dual-purposed dog who excels in narcotics detection. The Port Clinton Police Department Officers of the Year are Sergeant Joshua Nelson and his K9 partner Spike. Nelson began as a reserve officer in 2004, was promoted to Patrolman in 2007 and became K9 Handler in 2011. He is also a TASER instructor, sergeant of the midnight shift and an operator with the Ottawa County Special Response Team. Nelson was deployed for Operation Iraqi Freedom from Jan.-Dec. 2008. This is the second year in a row that Nelson and Spike are recipients of the Kiwanis Officer of the Year Award for the Port Clinton Police Department.

These events will kick off National Safe Boating Week, May 18-24, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR). According to the Recreational Boating Statistics 2011 released by the U.S. Coast Guard, 70 percent of all fatal boating accident victims drowned, and of those, 84 percent were reported as not wearing a life jacket. Life jackets save lives, said ODNR Director James Zehringer. Keeping people safe on the water is the reason we encourage everyone to participate in the Ready,

Tuskegee Airman Dr. Harold Brown announces return of RISE ABOVE exhibit
BY DONNA LUEKE 68 years ago last month Harold Brown, now a resident of Catawba Island, was 20 years old and in Moosburg P.O.W. camp in Germany. I recall it very well, said Brown last week on the anniversary of VE Day, We had been in Nuremberg P.O.W. camp and were moved as the Allies advanced. 10,000 of us had walked the 12-13 days to Moosburg, where we joined 25,000 other P.O.W.s. At the event last week at Liberty Aviation Museum to announce the return of the CAF Red Tail Squadrons RISE ABOVE Traveling Exhibit, Brown talked of his plane being shot down on his 12th mission, of the crash of his P-51 after a bombing run on his 30th mission and his subsequent capture by German soldiers, of how grateful he was to the German soldier that protected him from being killed by angry civilians and soldiers, of General Pattons triumphant and colorful arrival to liberate the camp at Moosburg, of the long journey home (it was another six weeks before he boarded a ship for the U.S.) and of his 23-year career in the Air Force as a pilot and flight instructor. Brown, 88, is one of only 40 Tuskegee Airmen still living of the 450 who served in combat duty in World War 11. He plays golf several times a week, is fit, charming, engaging and an excellent raconteur. At the Erie-Ottawa County Regional Airport from Aug. 29-Sept. 1, Dr. Brown will be hosting the return of the CAF Red Tail Squadrons RISE ABOVE Traveling Exhibit. Brown and Jeff Sondles of the Liberty Aviation Museum are putting out the call for volunteers to enlist as corporate or private sponsors to help underwrite and defer the costs required to bring the exhibit to Port Clinton. We are reaching out to the community for sponsors so we dont lose this piece of history, said Sondles. For more information or to enlist as a sponsor, contact Liberty Aviation Museum at 419-7320234 or www.libertyaviationmuseum.org.

Dr. Harold Brown with his stand-in. The stand-in will be at the Liberty Aviation Museum when Brown is playing golf or elsewhere.

Captain Juls Fishing Report

my tournament style boat to teach people who want to learn how to troll for walleye. There are so many presentations and variables involved that it never gets boring. I love to perch fish too, more than anything, so perch fishing is always available. Smiling, she says, I would like to thank the Beacon for this wonderful opportunity, and my sponsors who keep my dreams alive and allow me to do things like fish for a living, and write fishing reports for the local paper. Her sponsors include Ranger Boats, Evinrude Motors, Minn-Kota Trolling Motors, Humminbird GPS/Sonar Systems, Cannon Downriggers, Off Shore Tackle, Vics Sports Center, EZEE Steps, and The Jewelry Mechanic. Juls also works full time as a bartender/server for the Catawba Island Club. Captain Juls can be contacted by

www.thebeacon.net

The Beacon is happy to announce the addition of Captain Julia Juls Davis to the reporting team. She will be writing a weekly fishing report to help you maximize your time on the water and help you put more fish in your boat. Capt. Juls is originally from Wisconsin and moved to the Port Clinton area in the spring of 2001 to pursue her passion for fishing. After her relocation, Juls hit the road for eight months out of the year, to fish professionally against the Big Boys of walleye fishing. For 8 years she was the only full time female professional walleye tournament angler in the country. After an amicable divorce in the winter of 2010, Juls studied for her Captains license. Acing her exams, she was off and running. She started a different kind of charter business called, Juls Walleye Fishing Adventures in the spring of 2012. My charter service is not your typical 6-pack charter, said Juls, I use

www.thebeacon.net
Letter to the Editor For nearly two years there has been a grass roots effort to restore the historic Port Clinton lighthouse, which the late Dave Jeremy fortuitously saved from destruction in 1952. The current owner, Darrell Brand, in an effort to ensure it would be preserved into the future, sought to gift it to the city of Port Clinton. The Port Clinton Lighthouse Conservancy was created to fund and supervise the restoration work and facilitate the lighthouse transfer. In December 2011, following a recommendation by the Parks Committee, the city council voted to accept the gift of the lighthouse. The expectation then was that the lighthouse would be placed in Waterworks Park near the end of a planned Adams Street extension. However, with the transfer of power to a new administration these plans were shelved. In April 2012 Mr. Brand met with newly elected Mayor Leone to discuss lighthouse placement. Mr. Brand wanted the structure to be located in the park near the Lake Erie shore while the mayor wanted it to be placed at the corner of Perry and Jefferson Streets, on the site of the recently demolished Waterworks building. They failed to reach an agreement. The mayors chosen location was discussed at length by the Conservancy and found to be neither acceptable nor suitable, for these reasons: First, as the mayor knows, Mr. Brand rejects this location for aesthetic reasons, preferring a waterfront location close to its original location. Although some have claimed intransigence on his part, Mr. Brand has in fact worked tirelessly with the Conservancy to craft a proposal that allows the city great flexibility with placement while honoring his wishes. It is the mayor who refuses to consider any other options. Second, according to state officials, placing the lighthouse at Adams and Jefferson would preclude its inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places, while any of the waterfront locations identified in our proposal likely would be approved. Third, this location is aesthetically inconsistent with the historic nature of the lighthouse, particularly one whose purpose was as a pier-head light. For all of these reasons, we could not support nor recommend to Mr. Brand the adoption of the mayors proposed location for the lighthouse. In June 2012 the mayor declined an invitation to meet with the Conservancy. Frustrated with the lack of action, the Conservancy decided this past January to initiate a grassroots campaign to educate the public about the lighthouse and its value to the city. We dubbed this campaign, Bring Back the Light! We held public meetings, spoke to local civic organizations, and distributed literature to educate the public. On March 1 the Conservancy submitted a comprehensive proposal to the city detailing the potential economic value of the lighthouse to the city and identifying three potential sites within a corridor of land on the waterfront in the Waterworks Park where the lighthouse

could be placed without impinging on a proposed fishing lodge development. After the Conservancy held a press conference to announce the release of its proposal, city officials indicated an interest in discussing the issue. Email exchanges followed, offering some hope the city might wish to work toward a solution. In a show of compromise, the Conservancy proposed placing the lighthouse at a location north of the Derby Pond, well outside the area earmarked for a future development. We invited city leaders and council members to view the site with us. We were encouraged when the safety and service director, chief of police, and some council members came out to the site and asked questions about our proposal. Their comments encouraged us to believe that we might yet have a deal. Then in April, members of the Conservancy were summoned to a meeting with the Mayor, the City Council President and Safety Service Director. Our group went to the meeting hopeful that the city would now work with us toward a solution. Instead, we were presented with a list of reasons why the Derby Pond location was not suitable. These included a conflict with the annual fireworks, lack of ADA accessibility, interference with pending trail extension and Army Corps of Engineers shoreline work, environmental issues, and incompatibility with Mr. Roses proposed development scheme. The mayor considered these to be deal breakers. In our view, these were issues that could be worked through or were non-issues. For instance, according to a state website, the walking trail in the park, which would be adjacent to the lighthouse, is ADA accessible. The lighthouse itself, as a historic structure, is exempt from ADA rules. The fireworks could be moved to avoid conflicts, in which case the Conservancy could help to defray additional costs. The other reasons given were all addressable. The mayor again pushed for the Jefferson and Perry location. Despite this disappointment, we left the meeting still hopeful of an agreement and buoyed by assurances from the mayor that he believed the lighthouse was a desirable asset. We thought that if the objections of the city could be overcome, an agreement might still be possible. Two week later, however, we received word that the city would not under any circumstances accept this gift unless there are no strings attached to its transfer. In other words, our Derby Pond location proposal was dead on arrival. After long reflection and discussion we believe the mayor has not acted in good faith. We believe his intent all along has been to place the lighthouse at the Adams and Perry location and that he only gave lip service to other options in order to appear accommodating to us and reasonable to the press, the council, and members of the public. We do not believe the mayor sees the lighthouse as a part of the citys historical heritage or future vision, but rather as potential window dressing for future Waterworks Park demerous times and has done a great deal of work. The Conservancy has accused us of throwing red herrings into sees these as issues that any the project. The Committee city faces when a building is going to be placed on City land. It is the right and the obligation that we look at all the issues that face the City when taking on a project. This one in particular is taking place on a piece of land that is in play for numerous projects, some that have been on the burner for quite some time. The City committee has asked for one thing consistently from the Lighthouse Committee and that has been time, time to allow us to look at projects on the block and those that may be forth coming and see how the placement of the beacon will affect those. Each time we have been told no, the Lighthouse Committee wants the beacon placed by Labor Day and the City will not guarantee that. Again, each time we have offered the Waterworks building site. The Waterworks building site is build ready, it is in proximity to the River and provides a gateway into the River area. Have both sides buried their feet in the sand? Yes, they have. However, the beacon is not homeless. It can be taken back to Brands Marina. The City would like to solve this but for us there are only two choices, place it on the property that is willing and waiting or step back and let us put a plan together. Sincerely, City of Port Clinton Review Committee Mayor Leone Linda Hartlaub Tracy Colston

velopment. We have gone out of our way to reach an agreement. We believe the Derby Pond location is a fair compromise, one that serves the people of the city. We are convinced that it will not conflict in any way with the proposed development (at least insofar as that plan has been portrayed to the public at large) and we believe there is broad support from the business community and the public for the Derby Pond location. Frustrated that the city will not work with us and united in the belief that the lighthouse is too important to the people of Port Clinton for a select few to decide its fate, we are now making a direct appeal to the people of Port Clinton and to their direct representatives, the members of the city council, to take up this cause. The lighthouse belongs to the people of Port Clinton and deserves to be placed in a location befitting its historic and iconic status. Its image graces the seal of the city of Port Clinton, as well as the logos of the Chamber of Commerce and Main Street Port Clinton. It reflects, as no other structure can, the citys rich maritime heritage and unique character. We intend to see it gifted to the city and placed in the Waterworks Park on the lakeshore, either during this administration or a future one. Too many dedicated volunteers have selflessly devoted too much time and energy to quit now. We want to make it clear that we are keeping the door open and the lights on. We remain ever hopeful for a resolution to this matter. We are ready to work with the city at any time the city decides to work with us. But we can no longer wait for the fulfillment of empty promises. Please join us in this effort to return the lighthouse to the waterfront now, for the betterment of the city and its people. Respectfully, Richard J. Norgard, President Port Clinton Lighthouse Conservancy Board Members: Darrell Brand, Rev. Robert Butcher, Doug Garrett, Joan Hickman, Debbie Hymore-Tester, Kyle Johannsen, Bill Moon, Commander Jerry Nauert, John Smothers, Alex Thomas

g Beyond the expected ou and your Automobile.

Dear Readers, Ever been given a gift and never received it? Ever been promised a gift and then told how you have to use it? That is where the City of Port Clinton is on the gift of the lighthouse. Sometime ago Mr. Darrell Brand offered to the City of Port Clinton one of the two remaining beacons that guided boaters into the Portage River from Lake Erie. The City Administration and the City Council voted to accept the gift. Then came the contract. The contract stated that the beacon had to be placed at the end of Adams Street, based on a conceptual drawing that had Adams Street come across Perry and through Waterworks Park. The contract mandated that the beacon be placed at the turnaround that was included in the drawing. Since this was a conceptual drawing and the fate of that project was unknown, the City declined and offered to place it at the site of the former Waterworks building. Mr. Brand declined. Several months later the City was approached by the Lighthouse Conservancy Committee, asking why we did not want this gift. Wanting the beacon has never been the issue, only the placement. Again the City offered the WaAgents terworks building area and were told no. Then the committee began having public meetings insinuating that the Photo City did not want the beacon. Nothing is further from the Here truth. Again, this is about placement. The Mayor has a review Committee that oversees projects that individuals and groups would like to do for the City. These groups bring their plans; we approve, tweak and at times reject these projects. The Committee has reviewed this particular project nu-

Marblehead Peninsula Chamber promotes Balsom

The Board of Directors of the Marblehead Peninsula Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce the promotion of Judy Balsom to Executive Director.
