New Haunt attraction near The Beast this year?
It would seem a logical fit for Canada's Wonderland, As someone else (another forum) pointed out, this is for an American trademark however, and nothing shows up on a search for the Canadian equiv. (at least not yet) Not saying "Rougarou"...is for any particular park...but it would be a great fit in that area. Maybe a revamp & move for Wolf Pack? Or better yet an expansion to a full Haunt or companion to Backwoods Bayou(I thought this scare zone was better than several of the actual Haunt mazes) Of course, I know I've seen it posted on here that Cedar Fair doesn't frequently trademark Haunt mazes.

Season Long Dining Plan
I could be wrong.. but as a kid in the late 70's, it seems that they opened up an hour early , where you could just go in and shop/browse the shops, ect. And this was before ERT.. The anticipation, atmosphere, browsing the stores, planning your day. It was great. Of course, we only got to go once a summer when our dad's work gave them tickets....so it was a big deal walking through those gates and taking in all the sights, sounds and smells.(To this day, every time I smell blacktop, it reminds me of those summer trips as a kid) If a drink were to be included, I could see myself adding this plan to our 4 passes. Even if it was just a free fill up in a current years souvenir cup. I usually just purchase the souvenir cups for us @ the beginning of the season, and purchase the LaRosa's $30.00 pass deal. (with 10 trips last year, we try being frugal) Since I was being nostalgic above...my one wish, the one experience I truly miss...bring back Enchanted Voyage (or at least a modern day version)..loved loved loved that boat ride as a kid.. It was one of the few rides the whole family could ride and not to mention how nice it was in the Cincy summer heat.

arrest a ki 10/5/13
I would say its in "poor judgement" for you to judge another parent based on a trip to Halloween Haunt. They know their kids, you don't. Let them parent their kids and you stick to yours, (if applicable.) Say what you want dude ....but a one year old is still a baby and has no place in a haunted maze...not to mention the possible physical accidental dangers (ever been in front of a group of screaming groping, pushing, running girls? )

arrest a ki 10/5/13
^^^^ I wouldn't call you a bad parent. I don't know you or any of your children. I would say it was a poor judgement call letting a one year old and most six year olds in haunted mazes full of blood, guts, and gore. Parents....there's a reason the event is advertised for those over 13. Spend the day with them making lasting memories over in Planet Snoopy and Howl-O-Palooza

Season Passes
^^^^^^ During haunt last year, I purchased our passes online using the payment plan. We were able to use the free visits immediately. I would assume it's the same this year.

Twitter Winter Confusion
I haven't seen this mentioned yet, so if I have overlooked it, forgive me. This was posted today on twitter by KICentral Kings Island Central @KICentral3h On this date in 2006 Paramount's Kings Island announced the cancellation of Winterfest. Please plan your celebrations accordingly. Details There was an earlier post on here (don't remember which topic it was posted on) that an admin or mod had mentioned best christmas ever? Any thoughts on the meaning of that highlighted line?
