  1. Evan with the "cuts" I think the CP Boardwalk and Camp Snoopy at KI are vast improvements over how it was before. Same with adventure port. Absolutely love all the colors in that area and the flats really do add some excitement to the area

  2. Not sure if they were actually planned or not, but the renderings for Camp Snoopy that Kings Island put out last year had several theming elements and landscaping that wasn't present in the final product.

  3. Every time I go to ride SSBR, I see so many kids just having the time of their lives playing in the Beagle Scouts area.

  4. 2021-22 was truly a new “Golden Age” for the park. It felt “right” for the first time in a long time. I have to believe it also showed in revenue numbers. The problem with corporate structures though is, the highs have to carry the lows. That was a pretty dismal year for other parks in the portfolio, and unfortunately anything we “banked” was spread thinned to cover for others losses.

  5. What has to be very hard for Kings Island management is they are told what they are doing by corporate. Then the park looks like they themselves are incompetent or incapable when they don't have much say in the matter. That has to be most frustrating for them. I really do feel bad for them in that regard.

  6. On a different (related) note: I know I beat the park up a lot (only because I see so. Much. Potential that it frustrates me at times when they get so close and stop) But did chat with Koontz tonight when I bumped into him at Beagle Scout Acres as my 9 year old was running around (for like the 10th time). Told him I rolled my eyes last year when I saw this area was the big addition?!!? But as proven by my kid running around - Playing tag with kids he’s never met, laughing and begging to stay even though Orion only has a 15 min wait??? They’ve tapped into something very needed. A place where kids can just be kids and play. He smiled and said, “thanks. I need to hear that” I think the bad often outweighs the good they hear, so make sure you balance the narrative any way you can.

  7. Another amazing piece from the FUN Food Blog: https://cpfoodblog.com/the-cedar-point-boardwalk-that-might-have-been/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR3p5qMOPvYC7IzshRnz2bE2paHwxwNk_r5TyAM6N7hyl3an0TO4Axqu6LE_aem_ei1eWB55hwoMDw4td04p0A

  8. There is still time to add some of the cut stuff to the area in the future. The area where the little ampitheater and the water feature was planned is an empty field right now.

  9. I agree to some extent, but there still seems to be some leeway just based on variances you see from park to park doing the same event. I neither blame the solely or excuse them completely.

  11. Invertigo is currently testing, so if it were done for the year I doubt they would waste resources testing it... EDIT: it is now open

  12. At least Snoopy Soapbox can still claim the highest operating spike coaster in Ohio

  13. I am not a lawyer, but I fail to see where there's any legal risk to post what CP did in the wake of the Raptor incident, so I fail to see why there would have been any legal risk for KI to do the same when the same thing happened at KI. It's a terrible move to leave an information vacuum to be filled in with rumors and misinformation. Where's the legal exposure in the above statement? Nonsense. The events are virtually identical - a guest lost an item(s) in a restricted area, and circumvented multiple barriers to retrieve said item(s), was struck by the ride and subsequently died from their injuries. KI could quite literally have copied CP's media comment and replaced "Raptor" with "Banshee" and that's it (the medium (press release, Twitter post, etc.) is irrelevant). That they couldn't meet that incredibly low bar is pretty bad.
