2 buses, 2 vans, 126 seniors, and 7 faculty members headed down to Sandusky, Ohio to conquer America's most beloved roller coaster capital: Cedar Point. For over 20 years, Concordia Lutheran High School has continued the tradition of relieving the senior class of a day from school and giving them a chance to test their limits through award-winning coasters. Although it might not have been the most relaxing time of their lives, most would say that it was the most memorable.

Here's what people are saying:

1. "The best part was forcing Abbie Oetting to go in the front row of the Raptor and her crying before and then after she wanted to do it again." - Tayana Rollins

2. "We were on the first ride, the Gatekeeper, and I looked over at Cole and all I saw was his head bobbing because he passed out. I was scared at that moment, but when we got off I couldn't stop laughing." - Victoria Miller

3. "It was Jackson Wagner and I's first time at Cedar Point, so we decided to skip lunch and dinner and ride roller coasters while the rest of our group ate." - Kami Rieck


4. "My favorite part about the trip every year is just to have fun and celebrate with the seniors before they leave, and seeing them outside the confines of school and sports. Just to relax and have fun with the seniors is fun for me." -Mr. Brune


5. "The best part was screaming obscenities with Nick Webb on every ride." -Jack Wert


6. "I thought it was hilarious because I went to the same concession stand so many times and they knew me as the "volleyball girl" because of my Concordia volleyball T-shirt I was wearing." -Abby Minger


7. "My favorite ride was definitely the Valravn, especially when I hung off the edge and felt like I was going to die. Sam (Meyer) also screamed like a little girl going over the first hill of the Millennium (Force)." -Teddie Sauer


8. "It was funny because Jacob Bryant was eating chicken fingers on the roller coaster whenever the ride slowed down." -Kirsten Olsen


9. "My favorite memory was when Kami Rieck held my hand on all of the roller coasters and started screaming, 'we're just flying, we're not dying'." -Kylie Steele


10. "I loved riding the Millennium Force with and the Valravn with Mr. Brackmann. I screamed more than him, but he was definitely more scared than me." -Audrey Kruse


11. "It was really fun getting to see the llamas, the chickens, and I really really loved feeding and petting the baby goats." -Claire Hegge


12. "I got kicked off the Gatekeeper for being too thick." -Brent Fugate

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
