Six Flags Great Escape opens on Saturday – a sure sign summer is on the way.

This is the amusement park’s 70th season.

This year, there is a brand-new ride at the park, called “The Bobcat.”

It is said to be the state’s first wooden rollercoaster in 25 years.

The Great Escape is also looking to fill some summer jobs.
