Roller coaster marathon for kids

Posted: Updated:

MASON, Ohio – Riding roller coasters over and over again is every thrill-seekers dream. 

More than 60 riders lived their dream Sunday on the Racer roller coaster at Kings Island while helping wishes come true for children. 

‘Coasting for Kids' is in its third year at Kings Island.

The event raises funds for Give Kids the World Village, a Central Florida non-profit resort that provides week-long vacations to children with life-threatening illnesses and their families. 

More than 350 participants signed up across Cedar Fair's parks, raising more than $110,000 including over $13,000 at Kings Island.
