Best Friends, Graduation and Psycho Mouse
“Recently my best friend and I celebrated our graduation with a two-day trip to Great America. We've always had a ton of fun at the Park and knew it would be a huge thrill. We never stopped smiling and laughing, especially on the roller coasters! We rode Psycho Mouse twice and bought a ride photo that still makes us crack up every time we look at it. Over the course of the two days, we played fun games and bought cool souvenirs to remind us of our awesome time. The Nickelodeon Celebration Parade was really neat and my best friend and I got our photo taken with Blue from Blue's Clues. Thanks for a weekend we'll never forget or stop talking about!”
