Americana Amusement Park Monroe, Ohio 1999 Page One
Americana is a small traditional park just north of Cincinnati Ohio. It's an old park with a classic John Miller coaster and many old rides that you don't find often. This park lives in the shadow of Paramount's Kings Island by gearing itself more towards families and picnics. One tip for this park is to go in the evening because they have a $5 admission and it's rare that you have long lines here.
I've only seen rides like this at Holiday World and Geauga Lake. They're a ton of fun as you get to control the ride, also it's a great way to cool off.
Americana has a nice midway with plenty to do from games and food to keep you busy.
The first coaster you come to is a the Serpent. I believe it is a Galaxy coaster by the Italian firm SDC. It only has one train (please put the 2nd one on) so there's always a wait but it's a decent ride.
There are several great drops on this ride including the first.
One feature of this ride is several great helixes.
