The city of Aurora, Ohio has announced plans to buy the former Geauga Lake amusement park and the forty acres that formerly hosted a Sea World park with plans to renovate the property into a public park with a pool, beach, boating, and other possibilities.
The 4.5 million cost will be paid by the city with 1.3 million of the sum coming from the American Rescue Pan act.
Some structures, such as the Sea World aquarium will be renovated for future uses while others will be demolished for space reasons.
Renovations will begin shortly after all the demolition is completed.
NBC Sports writes of the question of what person actually snapped the famous photo of Secretariat at the wire with the field so far behind him at the 1973 Belmont Stakes.
The image has been attributed for years to Bob Coglianise. Still, the article attempts to flesh out if Coglianise actually took the photo or if one of his employees was responsible for the shot.
Under the rules of photography, any photo taken by an employee can be attributed to the employer, so even if it was not Coglianise that was the photographer for the shot, it's still legally his shot and it's not unethical to do so.
It's an interesting article for the mystery alone.
The Athletic writes of what seems to be a surprising but suddenly inevitable return of the NHL to Atlanta after two previous failures.
The article focuses more on the Thrasher's failure than the first attempt at Atlanta hockey, the Atlanta Flames but also considers the reasons that the area didn't make the Thrashers work and some of the changes in the Atlanta metro area that might finally allow hockey to break through successfully.
WDRB in Louisville lightens things up with a local person that has filled his yard with outdoor toys from the old days of Mcdonald's playlands.
In short, he has created his own McDonaldland with a yard filled with carousels, Officer Big Macs, and Mayor McCheese's.
His grandchildren are quite fortunate to have such great nostalgic items to play with and on since today's kids won't have those experiences!
