This ride is named in memory of Sue Snyder, who lost her life in a battle with pancreatic cancer on Sep. 28, 2018. Sue was 59 years old and was a learning support teacher and mother to three daughters and two grandchildren. Sue was a caring person who fought for her students when others wouldn't. She expected them and others she met to always strive to be and do their best in whatever they attempted. Whenever anyone asked how she was doing, Sue always replied the she was, "Kicking and Screaming," something she did until the end. Sue's family and friends ride in her honor as "Sue's Crew."
