Dr. Larry Eastland, Chief Executive Officer of Great American Family Parks, stated, "Crossroads Convenience Center has been a consistent performer for us, with recent momentum building in the month of August. CCC has already generated over five million dollars in revenues so far this year in 2006, a year over year improvement of approximately 47%. CCC has not only reached critical mass in terms of revenues, but its August profitability is also high, as measured by significant year over year improvements in both gross and net margins in August. In terms of revenue contribution, we saw sales improvements in August virtually across the board with our highest increases coming from tobacco, beverage, and grocery sales. We partially attribute these successes to the results of marketing efforts surrounding the opening of new stores at the Boise State University campus and The Idaho Center."
