Looks like KI isn't the only attraction in Warren County with budget cuts....will Winterfest see a major scale back too... https://www.fox19.com/2023/10/05/high-costs-put-pause-holiday-lights-show-2023/

Exactly. If they paid like Buc-ee's they would show the salary in the job posting like Buc-ee's does....

Maybe it is worse or completely on the lower end

Assistant Manager at Buc-ee's pays more.....just sayin.... https://store-external-buc-ees.icims.com/jobs/9697/assistant-general-manager/job

I thought you were applying for it LOL.

Is your application already submitted

Cedar Fair has proven (short term obviously post-covid) that they can have lower attendance like was seen in 2022, yet have record profits. While 2022 attendance was down 4% compared to pre-covid 2019, full year 2022 revenue was up 23% compared to pre-covid 2019, thus proving you don't have to give away the gate and don't need increased attendance every year and can still produce record revenue... Now the bubble burst this year and everything chain-wide is down so it will be interesting to see what they do moving forward, but parks have shown they can make more money with lower attendance if the strategy is there and they commit to it and not give away the gate the moment there is a blip.

Even if they eliminated the rides and made it all Haunt, people would still complain about wanting to go for the atmosphere and see the decorations but don't want to be scared LOL

You putting "communications" in quotes screams continuing the comms bashing narrative the site seems to have become since Don left. Maybe that wasn't your intent, but that was the message potentially being conveyed...

I'm sure whoever took the picture has left the state. Probably hiding in Tennessee before stopping at KD next weekend with the plans. Hope they took the right set

Who else is enjoying the 2nd Sunday in a row of patriotic music in Coney Mall

True that one the park lost power at 9:30am and Duke gave an estimated time and they knew it early enough to say something. A computer going down could have happened at 10:29am and they thought it would just be a few minutes and turned into an hour. But we don't know what was happening behind the scenes and some seem quick to blame that Don being gone is the reason why they were not communicated to lol. Contrary to popular belief he didn't run the park lol.

You all act like we heard Don's voice over the PA the whole time he was here lol. We have had temp glitches like this in the past that never made KI official social media pages. I doubt marketing/PR even has access to the PA system. It is probably a completely different department and maybe that department was too busy trying to get the system going. Or maybe the PA system is thru the computer system that was down so they couldn't access it for a live announcement. Kinda like how some businesses have their phones thru IP so if internet is down, so are the phones. My understanding is that associates were walking around conveying the message to folks. Not everything bad that happens is a result of Don not being here and the result would have been the same regardless...

I don't know if I would go that far LOL. There were waves of it at times locally that gave that impression, but nowhere near to the point that the entire park was immersed. You could go on any of the Towers and still see clear down to some spots.

And you are one of the better ones, but there are many scareactors that appear to be more into selfies than scares. Go sit say in Coney for 10-15 minutes and you will see the actors basically walking up to groups encouraging selfies. Scare first, selfie second LOL

So for the record, does taking selfies with guests count or not ?

The scareactors are simply following the lead of Mr. Selfie

And the times the wind rolled it out over 71 prompting calls from the OSP to turn the fog down Now there is more vape smoke than fog LOL

No thanks lol https://www.yahoo.com/news/canadas-wonderland-lumberjack-ride-stuck-upside-down-30-minutes-155651902.html

Who is enjoying the patriotic music they are playing in Coney Mall today lol. Feels like 4th of July weekend

Wow they really want G&G to fail lol

When you have a chaperone policy to push parents into the park, alcohol moves up in the pecking order LOL. Good thing they left the VIP lounge open later to allow all the new Prestige holder chaperones a place to drink their alcohol in a relaxing setting...oh wait

But will show on the advisory list of attractions closed for weeks after it opens....

Coming soon to Top Thrill 2 near you
