As Kristel detailed, 10-10-10 at Morey’s Piers was filled with happy guests as they rode the Sea Serpent one last time or ate a delicious cupcake at Sunny C. Gull’s birthday party, but there was another event that brought hundreds of people from many places far and wide and that was to witness the final stand of the ride that started it all, the Giant Slide. This 40 foot high, 15 lane slide located in North Wildwood on Surfside Pier is the birthplace of many memories cherished by young and old visitors of Morey’s Piers and Beachfront Waterparks. Over 200 lucky sliders took their last turn down the 200 foot long slide with smiles dancing across their faces.

Here’s a video that illustrates this historical day:
