"Whether you're riding the Wonder Wheel for the first time or the hundredth time, whether you're here for the excitement, the nostalgia, or simply a beautiful day by our wonderful Atlantic Ocean, you're part of our story, Dennis said. Thank you for your support, your loyalty, and the love you show this park."
"The promise of liberty and justice for all is stronger now than it was back in 1776, DJ said, because now it applies to men and women and people of every race and creed."
The annual Blessing of the Rides took place at Deno's Wonder Wheel as Coney Island's amusement parks opened for the season. Locals gathered for the celebration, which included the egg cream christening of the Cyclone. The Wonder Wheel, an iconic structure since 1920, is owned by the Vourderis family. The event is a tradition started by Dennis Vourderis' parents and continues with family involvement. The day featured performances and reflections on history, emphasizing community and the ongoing pursuit of liberty and justice.
