I guess it means what they mean by season? To me winter fest is a completely different than the main season. T -

I think we are getting pretty close to the point of return. I think the park will remain closed likely to Winterfest depending on a vaccine. Rumor has it United States have ordered 300,000,000 doses of a possible vaccine. Six Flags might actually get to open up a new coaster with the park! -

Im not going to personally rush to a park as soon as they open. We are going to wait until we see low case numbers and new restrictions are lifted. Until then we are just going on for needs. My wife has found a new liking to carry out and has no want to dine in restaurants anymore. -

We will be living with this virus until 1 of 3 things happens. 1.) A vaccine is created. 2)A effective cure is found. 3) Herd immunity. -

We all got tested beside by wife. We have been in quarantine. They were not wearing a mask but luckily we had no close contact. Kiddos are did better with the test than they have been dealing with not being in school. We just took our test today and now waiting results. -

I may have been exposed to the virus last Saturday (just found out this information yesterday). I am experiencing no symptoms currently and the person I know who tested positive is asymptotic. The Dr said my chance of exposure was low since we maintained distance from the person and were out doors. Wish us luck! -

It will be interesting to see the results of the random antibody test. This should give researchers a better understanding of how many people may have already had the virus. -
I would like to see a B&M flyer. A large one that would be in the same scale as Tatsu. With that being said I think as some point we will see a launched multi-looper in the spot. It seems to make the most sense right now.

The predictions were based on social full distancing. -

It's not even about riding a roller coaster. The death rates have been less than a mild flew season. Think about all the lives your a destroying by keeping the economy closed. There are people likely commuting suicide rom depression, people not getting needed surgeries or screening test because they need the bed space. I have read multiple people not getting cancer treatments because the hospital is waiting to fill the bed with a COVID19 victim. -
We made a lot of progress over the weekend on our firepit seating area and soon to be garden. Lots of digging. 2ft deep holes for the supports for the benches. 2 tons of rock so far with one more ton to pick out this weekend. IMG_2801.MOV

more more shutting down the economy was a horrible mistake. The predictions were completely off by over 300 percent. The government has shut down a booming economy and absolutely destroyed it. -

The Ohio governor will be releasing a plan of restarting next week. What that entails I am not sure but he was very hopeful in his conference. -

They basically did that with West Coast Racers. Maybe with the delay New Jersey Devil will open with the park. -

Yes but you could look at The Beast as well which is likely worth wel more than the $4 million the park paid for it. -

I wonder how much cost they would have with extended down time. You would have security and maintenance to pay. Oh and of course all the big wigs. -

I am probably in the minority here bur if we would have let this virus run its course we if would be almost over with now and the economy would still be booming. We could take precautions but to shut every thing down you are ruining peoples lives. Think about the small businesses.(the backbone of the economy by the way). Joe Blow down the street starting out young family just purchased his first home and now sunk $20,000 in starting a new diner along a popular highway (which likely would have been very successful) is now forced to close. Joe Blow loses his house, savings and is no long spending money elsewhere and his employees are now jobless. This scenario is playing out all over the country. The government is trying to help buy giving everyone a stimulus check of $1,200. That is not enough to make most house payments for a single month. Its not going to help not to mention what is that going to do with inflation? I far fear the economic impacts over the health impacts this is has caused. Cigarettes kill more people in a year and we willingly sell that over the counter the only difference is this effects the rich and famous and we have no way of controlling it. -

Probably not going to happen but I was thinking outside the box. Im not sure if this would even be allowed under the current restrictions. One of my favorite things about going to an amusement park is eating some of the crappy food. What if KI was able to set up tents so we could use our food passes and purchase some of that famous blue Ice cream or funnel cakes. They could even run test cycles of some of the rides here and there to keep ya entertained while we consume our amusement park food in our cars. -

Holiday World likely couldn't afford to extend season passes. I would think they don't have as much flexibility in thier financial as say Cedar Fair. -
