Cedar Fair has been a long time supporter of the charity, A Kid Again, a children’s charity that provides cost free and recurring events for children with life-threatening conditions.
For example, Cedar Point is actively involved with providing free adventures for families and have donated close to $500,000 to A Kid Again since partnering with the organization.
Kings Island is also a yearly partner and has generously donated some items from the park archives that are up for auction to benefit A Kid Again. Lets take a look at what is available.

Kings Island FireHawk Marquee Sign
Bid: Kings Island FireHawk Marquee Sign
The Firehawk Roller Coaster operated at Kings Island from 2007 to 2018. The steel coaster originally debuted in 2001 as X-Flight as Worlds of Adventure in Aurora, Ohio. After 6 seasons there, the ride was relocated by the Cedar Fair Entertainment Company to Kings Island, opening as Firehawk in 2007. Firehawk took willing test pilots more than 115 feet into the air and through 5 inversions in a flying position, facing the ground and watching everyone and everything below it race by in a blur. Firehawk was then removed in 2018 and was eventually replaced by Orion. This is the actual entry sign used at the main entrance of the ride. This is absolutely one-of-a-kind!
Firehawk Sign: 21 in H x 140 in L x 12 in D. Sign is in two pieces, approximate 50 lbs each/100lbs total.
