  6. Both Knoebels and Hershey are flooded and will not open this weekend. http://www.examiner.com/children-s-recreation-in-harrisburg/hershey-park-closed-due-to-flooding http://republicanherald.com/news/floods-rage-in-northumberland-county-1.1199684 Also two bison have died in floods at ZooAmerica http://www.examiner.com/children-s-recreation-in-harrisburg/2-bison-from-zoo-america-die-as-a-result-of-flood-waters
  7. http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/visit/zombie_tours.cfm You knew it was coming.
  8. http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/09/07/idUS133211+07-Sep-2011+PRN20110907 Q is generally pleased.
  9. If you shall go, especially on Sunday, allow extra time to arrive. The triathalon causes road restrictions throughout the area, closes the Chausse/ old causeway and reduces the new causeway. There is also parking lot changes for that weekend.
  10. Blood on the bayou is located on iron dragon Island, the entrance is across from Power Tower and exit is near the Dragster lockers. Screamworks is a rethemeing of Fright Zone into a steampunk haunt. Also Infirmary is the new name for Asylum.
  11. http://www.cleveland.com/business/index.ssf/2011/08/northeast_ohio_insiders_get_bu.html Why is this here? Look at the chart near the bottom of the page.
  12. Sometimes there is a five to six kid wait! They are thinking about Fast Lane for snoopy. I will also be there on Thursday.
  13. I forgot to mention before, wind chill on the coasters can be brutal in chilly weather.
  14. CP has employee dorms which means they don't rely on locals for staffing as much as other parks. Also with hotels, they get guest from areas that don't start school yet.
  15. CP allows reentry during the entire day, so you dont have to worry aout lugging your jacket around in the day.
  16. That is how Frontier Town is at night, generally everything is still open though. Magnum has no MCBR, it has an annoying set of trim breaks. MCBR can stop a train dead, then release the train which can make it back around. Magnum can't do that. Also no Kitty? No Blue Streak? No Skyhawk? No Cedar Downs?
  17. The Ice show first opened in 2002. http://rollercoasterfreak.com/CP_Brochures/2002_b_fold1.jpg
  18. PWE is not that unpopular, it's still a favorite among families with little kids as well as grandparents. Many weekends it does get a line.
  19. Remember this is the time of year to check park schedules for any park you visit. Parks now have different hours or may not be open on a certain day.
  20. http://www.newsnet5.com/dpp/news/news_archives/video-vault-three-decades-of-cedar-point Videos from 60's 70's and 80's
  21. BOOO! PWE is one of the few rides every one can enjoy from grandparents to little babies. As long as one can sit upright they can ride.
  22. Mine Ride is 42 years old, it was built in 1969.
