https://www.cleveland.com/business/2020/05/cedar-fair-considering-capacity-limits-virtual-queuing-in-reopening-of-cedar-point-other-parks.html This is the closest thing I've read of a CP person referencing capacities Brian Witherow, executive vice president and chief financial officer is referenced as saying On its busiest days, with perhaps 50,000 guests in attendance, Cedar Point might operate at 90% of total capacity, he said. Average daily attendance, however, is about 50% of that, he said. So if you calculate 50K is 90%, then about 55K is ballpark 100%

That's what I'm keeping my eyes on because it's the closest date out of everything. At the same time I wonder if gov is waiting last minute to announce openings just so less people have time to plan for a visit. Hard telling anymore

I've been questioning how much the states are working together as well. I hadn't heard of anymore CP properties canceling hotel reservations past June 15th, and can still book from then out on the site. Definitely not a confirmation of date but if dates past that start to cancel as well, we may be further into summer. Also with Great Wolf Lodge at June 14th, Kalahari June 5th. You figure at least the governor should have to announce something about the status this week with Kalahari opening being so close. Holiday World is set for June 14th -16th for passholders, and public the 17th.

Eh least I can feel like I'm doing something.

Good news is my assigned seat at Drop Tower is right here

Near future is the equivalent of a parent saying "soon" lol.

It's my backup plan. No waterpark until July is the only thing I'd dread. Still holding out hopes for mid June for Ohio openings, but there is a point people will choose to spend their money elsewhere.

I've been tempted to move, but unless NASA has a 90k position they'll give me without a college degree it's a no go.

Allegiant air has flights out of Cincinnati to Orlando June 5th for $77.....

I usually hear "I have a pet with that name"

***Mist stations closed? Are they going to ban personal mist fans as well?

You're not counting on the exclusively of capacity limits and the FOMO phenomenon are you?

Welcome to the family

I could find it either, closest was "mass gatherings" was clarified back in March I guess, no mention of amusement parks. https://www.foley.com/en/insights/publications/2020/03/ohio-order-prohibits-mass-gatherings-operations

Usually before passholder preview day? Which is before public opening day.

Just out of curiosity what's up with the dozer building the dam on the CP beach? Is water up that high on the lake?

I'm in the same boat, apparently Kentucky says outdoor attractions may open June 8th, so Kentucky Kingdom may be in place to open soon as well. (Last resort option) Being within 2.5 hours of 3 amusement parks has it advantages right now lol Does anyone feel like this has been a long TV series your just waiting for the finale to televise?

Holiday World's online reservation and ticket system is now live and working. June 17th first day to non passholders, tickets $29.99 each day. Park hours 10am-7pm

3rd loop at the bottom for your beard or are we going to see alot of beard braids coming back....

Likely the styles for motorcycle riders? They already go high speeds with without many flying off or blocking their eyes.

Turn the shed into a car wash

I'd only want a heads up before coming if parties will not be able to sit together and any rides. Picture a kid riding a coaster for the first time, how many do you think would change their mind about riding because they don't have mom or dad next to them to feel better? Mine is 11 now so she's gotten past that phase of needing a safety net. But I remember what those nerves.

I'm gonna stretch and say many fairs are 4H, which is Agricultural, fairs have rides, sooooo....

Guess this may be where 2 per row would have an advantage? Personally don't see them splitting an even group into 2 or 4 different rows so noone is directly next to each other.

I haven't had the heart to delete my countdown for public opening
