Blue Streak is a wooden roller coaster at Conneaut Lake Park amusement park in Conneaut Lake, Pennsylvania. Built in 1937, the Blue Streak is an ACE "Coaster Classic" and was the first to be designated as so. Known for its "out and back design and its unusually steel one-two-three-punch plunge into the woods and camel-back return to the station, it is an unforgettable coaster - a ride that only a wooden coaster can provide. The original wooden Edward Vettle trains have been restored and put back into service, making a ride on Blue Streak one that has virtually not changed since the days of our parents, grandparents and great grandparents.
Blue Streaks are the name of the Saratoga Springs High School Varsity hockey team.
