Browns' rookies enjoy day at Cedar Point

Sunday, 20 July 2003

The Cleveland Browns will open training camp on Tuesday. But before they begin work, some rookies took time out on Saturday to enjoy a day at the world's largest amusement park, the Sandusky Register reported.

The trip was arranged by Cleveland director of player programs, Jerry Butler.

"They contacted us because it was the start of camp and Jerry Butler wanted to bring them to the park," Robin Innes, Cedar Point director of public relations, told the Register. "We treated them nicely."

"This is my first time at Cedar Point, but I've heard about it back at school," Leigh Bodden, a rookie from Duquense University told the Register. "My friends talked about (Cedar Point) a lot and I've always wanted to come."

"Cedar Point is great, and these rides are just crazy," Chuck Klabo, who is from North Dakota State University, told the Register. "I hear this is one of the top-rated theme parks in the country. It's been a lot of fun."
