Conneaut coaster in need of votes

CONNEAUT LAKE — A group that wants to refurbish a historic wooden roller coaster — and get it back on track — is asking the public for help.

The Trustees of Conneaut Lake Park say they can get a $50,000 grant to help with the Blue Streak, the sixth-oldest wooden roller coaster in the country, if people go online and vote in a grant project sponsored by Pepsi. In all the trustees hope to raise $125,000 to complete the project and provide offseason maintenance for the coaster.

The Pepsi Refresh Project is awarding $1.3 million in grants to projects in a variety of categories that win the most online votes. The voting closes at the end of July at www.refresheverything.com.
