Snoopy the conductor leads kids on a railroad adventure “Thrills come in all sizes,” says vice president and general manager Frank Wilburn. “It’s important that we continue to create the best family environment for our guests and what better place to do that than right here at Planet Snoopy where we create memories that last a lifetime.” Planet Snoopy was added to Worlds of Fun in 2011 and will now feature 21 family style rides at Kansas City’s favorite amusement park. Little ones can take a trip on monster trucks, take to the skies on a forty-foot balloon ride, or hop in a new spinning tug-boat for the whole family. Sing and dance with Peanuts Party in the Park, a show with a special musical appearance by Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the whole Peanuts gang live in Planet Snoopy Plaza!
  3. Vaughan, ON (August 20, 2015) – Canada’s Wonderland is taking guests to new heights for 2016 with the addition of two new rides that will capture the imagination of both families, and thrill-seekers, as they take flight in an interactive flying experience. Skyhawk, the first ride of its kind in North America, will take riders to a new level of adventure when the park opens for its 35th season in 2016. Riders will take control of their own cockpit, showcasing their flying abilities as they maneuver through 360 degree turns, and challenge themselves to engage in multiple inversions at 135 feet (41m) in the air. Flying Eagles will thrill little pilots and quickly become a family favourite for parents and children alike. These two-person planes will glide 28 feet (8.5m) above the ground and allow each rider to control their flight and ride experience. “We are always looking to enhance the guest experience with new and exciting attractions. With the introduction of Skyhawk and Flying Eagles, thrill-seekers of all ages will enjoy the flying sensation on these interactive rides that are truly unique to our Park.” Norm Pirtovshek, General Manager, Canada’s Wonderland. To coincide with the new ride announcement, Canada’s Wonderland will simultaneously launch a limited time offer on 2016 Season Passes that are priced at only $67.99. Each pass will include a free visit for new Passholders or a free Fast Lane PLUS for renewing Passholders – both valid for the remainder of the 2015 season.
  4. If they didn't want to work with HUSS, Zamperla does make a model that's similar.
  5. There was a wooden coaster planned for the 1992 Kings Island season to be developed by the Dinn Corporation but the company closed before it materialized. It appears not much else is known about it except what's been said in this thread.
  6. Do we have any idea what that would have been? Anything? Or just that it was in the works?
  7. In my extremely anecdotal view, Racer had the longest line today. (A university group happened to be in line at the exact time we went to ride)
  8. I saw you all. Just didn't make the overture. This should tell you where I was standing.
  9. I'm betting they will also get the new CF souvenir cup.
  10. Ah but Greg sounded very excited to talk about 2017 already. (If it's something big we'll have an idea early in the 2016 season anyway)
  11. They were either not mentioned or I don't remember hearing it.
  12. Did anyone post that Gold Passes go on sale tomorrow? $94.99. All season refill souvenir cup for $24.99. All season dining for $90.
  13. I didn't meet anyone but it was neat being at the announcement anyway. I'm a little shy when it comes to meeting new people. Maybe next time.
  14. I'm considering the plan for next year. Won't make the decision until the 2016 season is closer though.
  15. I'm here in my vintage red bat shirt.
  16. Anyone know where the heck the announcement is?
  17. The dinosaur in front of Planet Snoopy. Is gone.
  18. Feels like nobody here. Half of Banshees trains are empty.
