Hawaiian Coasters 325

I was hoping for fish and chips and it looks like we're getting it with the walleye! Hopefully it comes with tarter sauce! The other stuff looks great too! Just wish they had crab legs and salmon though.

The reason I linked the video was because that is the source of my information. Without the video, I would be violating the TOS for not providing a source. However, I'll remove the video if the mods want it removed.

According to this video, there will still be nightime stuff on the beach, but more towards the hotel area and it won't really be an event. Just nightime activities. Honestly, I think it would be better if they did the activities from CP nights (like the glow stuff, DJ, and games), but had it all summer (Memorial day to Labor Day) not just the end of summer.

**DOUBLE POST** Decided to make a mock up queue idea. The queue starts where I think a Haunt trail was at one point and snakes behind Iron Dragon next to Rougarou (goes under rumored vertical spike). The switchbacks are in between Iron Dragon and the brake run. The dark red lines are walls. The queue basically is enclosed to prevent anything from flying into the queue area. You then go up and over a bridge overtop of the brake run and go down into the new station. One thing that didn't make this drawing is I think we may see the double sided lockers SV has, I think those could go in an enclosed building where the former queue was.

Here's a drawing ElToroRyan came up with a few months ago: source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sZKmHcinpE&t=714s

For Forbidden Frontier, if the park wanted to, they can easily relocate the playground. Ik a lot of people are upset about FF mainly bc of the playground. I was able to perfectly place it in Kiddy Kingdom. All they would need to do is remove or relocate a couple rides.

^^Will Caillou be there and get grounded lol

Would it be open when @King Ding Dong is in the park lol

I also really want to see Festhaus redone. Like everything changes. We already have 2 Larosas so I think they can get rid of that and then I think Panda Express like Chick Fil A is on its way out at some point. I say do something like BGW does in their Festhaus with Oven Roasted Chicken, Smoked Sausage, Bratwurst, and even German flat bread pizza. I think you could do that where Festhaus Larosas is and then where Panda Express is, do a German pretzel stand where it has pretzel sandwiches and pretzel dogs like BGW. Also add German decorations throughout the Festhaus like flags and banners and do a German show like BGW:

I don't understand why they can't do CP Nights. I don't really think there is any other event they can do on the Beach that isn't the same thing. However, I have thought of how cool it would be to do a music festival/concert series on the Beach. There are Beaches that have done that in the past. source for photo: https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.travelchannel.com%2Finterests%2Fbeaches%2Fphotos%2F10-great-us-beach-festivals&psig=AOvVaw1RjxmVK_8u_Y0Ow3_WYXCj&ust=1677518933355000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CA8QjRxqFwoTCMiG_pPbs_0CFQAAAAAdAAAAABAD

My thoughts is something along the lines of Grain and Grill at Kings Dominion. I've heard G&G is one of the best restaurants at KD. Like they serve stuff like Roast Beef and Grilled Shrimp. They even have Penne Pesto pasta as a side. Plus all their meals come with pita bread and hummus which as someone who took a trip to Israel a few years ago, I would really love to see KI bring in some Mediterranean food to the park.

"Cargo Fury" would be a good name imo

Well that is good to hear. However, I could see them doing it down the road if it gets to the point where the website crashes due to the traffic like WCO did.

Seems like it keeps selling out faster each year. Honestly it wouldn't shock me if eventually they start doing the lottery thing that CP did for Winter Chill Out. WCO used to sell out in just as fast amount of time and it got to the point the website would crash due to all the traffic trying to get tickets. I would hate this, but this is what I eventually see happening with CS with more and more people wanting to go and the park wanting to keep space very limited to allow for a better experience.

I will be!

Got mine! Ready for year 3!

Diamondback's supports are starting to get painted

KI already does a festival in September with Tricks and Treats along with Haunt. Now, I would like to see them do an Oktoberfest like event and combine it with Tricks & Treats

Looks like they are starting to paint the Coke freestyle building:

"lazer strike" or "lazer plunge" would honestly be good for a dive coaster

Well great news today! The project got a 6-0 vote to move forward by the township planners today! Also was confirmed to be a steel coaster around 161 feet tall. They also said they plan to work with a proven manufacterer and are planning on investing in sound proofing the coaster. I think this almost confirms a B&M dive tbh. https://www.lehighvalleylive.com/lehigh-county/2023/02/south-whitehall-planners-back-new-1617-foot-high-rollercoaster-at-dorney-park.html

I'll attempt to get tickets as usual. However, like the past few years, expect it to sell out in 5-10 minutes tops.

Update: It seems like all the concrete in the viewing camera up to the Coke building has been ripped out. Now, wishing they would move the camera over so we can see the rest of the area come together.

Concrete removal coming along pretty well. Almost to the Coke stand

I say the biggest sign that we could see for a major new project there on opening day would be if they move the fence up to right up against the midway in the area where the batwing was. Right now, the fence near where the batwing was is away from the midway. I say when they start construction there, they'll move the fence up right up against the midway to block the view of the site. That's probably where they'll do the teasing campaign.
