Title: Great Adventure Web Cam
Post by: peterpjr on May 28, 2007, 04:35:25 PM

Does anyone else think it would be a great idea for GA to put in a web cam?  It would be fun to watch the park from home when you can't make it.  Also would be fun in the off season to get a glimpse of the park.  Wade, you might know,  any idea why they don't do something like this?  If I am not mistaken, CP has one.

I know Channel 10  NBC out of Philly shows a live CAM from what looks like the top of the Parachute ride
they show the Live feed during the weather sometimes  like they do in the Winter for Camelback Ski area.

I seen it once at around 6pm  weather but haven't tuned in as of late to see if they are still showing it
that was like a month ago

but yes there is a camera up there

I have seen that also but I was thinking more along the lines of a constant feed camera that you can find online and view whenever you want.

A camera with an image every few seconds would be kind of cool. I don't know how much traffic the site sees though, it could shoot the bandwidth cost way up.

Looks like a request for Angel

So if you see any Upper Park Management while in the park suggest it as I will also.
Just do the  "Cedar Point has one"  remark   ;)
