Bluegrass boardwalk ; BCS for 2014 2015 Boardwalk Christmas Spectacular: They could finally do something similar to a winterfest. Being in Louisville it just might work for the Koch family: My question is what will the mascot be, the kids area, one of my families favorite memories was the foam factory even us parents *adults* got into the fun, with the slides. my eldest boy and wife loved the water slides with the up and down hill technology. I will miss chang, hopefully that area will be a waterpark expansion. Hope they can save twisted sisters and really keep some theming to the pingeons blizzard river and the height requirement was great for kids too . Time will tell hopefully it works out for the koch's and the Holiday world family:

good on platinum pass perks!

Will coney get a new major ride soon, its a great park, but needs a dry side attraction of course thats my opinion: I know its money but with the beach closed I'm seeing more wet side attractions for coney!

SOB is sinking oh my not only Vortex but SOB? whats next?

Yes unfortunately I've been to other bass pros the one in Cincy is just a store well put! also for lots of ride time I would pick for six flags. Yep I was a fan even in Louisville, but for the whole charm, food, and feel of the park Dollywood!

I do not think it will hurt the park, it will help the bottom dollar though:

Never been on a boring ride , love them all, no matter what they are as you can experience somehting new, sure you may not quite exactly like it but its wonderful, mixing it up is the spice of life. !

Cedar Point will get this is my guess, but it would be great if KI could get something like this, something with such a new design. Knotts is about out of room, without taking more out. Cedar Point still can make more room, on the lots or something to that degree!

Maybe for the 41st anniversary!! water coaster, KING COBRA, The Bat, heck even the louisville park had some better water attractions than ki, with the up and down hill technologies. KI is now the Biggest baddest water park in all of NKY/INDIANA/ and CINDAY areas. But a water coaster the longest, tallest, most hills, only looping, okay that's pushing it, Overall would be a welcome addition!

Example like the fresh pretzel stand they could , if wanted shape pretzels like the eifel tower, something similar to the Mickey pretzels. But yes Cedar Fair as a whole beside MRS. KNOTTS chicken restraunt, I don't know how good the chicken is at Great America, but mrs. knotts is the best, and the funnel cakes I have tried KNOTTS wins, ! We shall see about this fresh approach;

The names are good, just am still not liking Soak City name. But the waterpark is getting bigger, Do you think KI will ever get a true water coaster with all of this hoopla?

Not just stand of course and operate

HAPPY DAY to The Beast and the KI community, a true gem in MASON: Let it stand many more years!

72 the reds make it to the World series but lose to the a's also. The union terminal thing interested me, as they kept trains in cincinnati at a new amtrack facility then moved back to union terminal sometimes history does repeat itself!!!

Great thread, thanks for the informative, interesting thread!

Dippin dots the ice cream of yesterday, the world is okay with regular icecream:

So if you replaced with another tallest, baddest , only looping coaster would you still call it SOB, or beast 2 revenge of beast, or something all new??? I don't see it being replaced with a wooden coaster we sahll see!

Great trip report, 11 years ago, my wife and my honeymoon was spent in that area we loved it!, Would love to get to ride the new ride at dolly, but I'll say one thing for the National park down there, once you go out west to see how they try to keep developement away away from the park, it makes for a whole different experience. Also for those of you headed to FLORIDA, or GATLINBURG this summer: It could get very tricky on the roadway's: Till atleast August 24th 2012: http://www.kentucky.com/2012/04/13/2149379/kentucky-news-review-summer-traffic.html

Dippin dots guy has a whole new company today. Read that over at another site this morning, a kentucky company was saved though. That is good.

Proportion is everything, how you are formed for sure. But i was 280 and rode everything and sat fine. The test seat works fine for Diamondback.

I do miss the big log flume we had, it seemed so tall with trees around it. Right now love white water canyon, especially where it is tucked back into rivertown, very different ride each time, great with a group too. Sure wish congo / amazon falls is good sure wish it could have been longer ride, but its nice to have. Will the future hold water rides be designed more like holiday world did dual lines one on the dry/one on the wet side. Its a nice concept.

Cars would be great for EPCOT, give the kids a land, but GM is sponsering this one with Disney:

thanks for the find, great article:

KI could do such a great thing they don't have to go to over the top, but they could make it like the original winterfest, lets face it they would draw a decent crowd. The zoo is just too packed anymore. Last time I was in cincy for that event we did the movie simulator, that was crazy packed. You almost have to get to the zoo right when it opens. To winterfest 2012!~ I would hope! Knotts does a great christmas peanuts addition, of course KI not being in a warm climate would not have all the rides, nor could the log flume run like knotts themed to christmas etc. But it could and would be great for KI:

Great story, looking up for the parks under the team!
