  1. I will go to WinterFest for the first time this year next week. From the webcam, the park looks beautiful. But a couple of the Eiffel Tower sequences make it look like a giant lava lamp instead of a Christmas tree. I kind of miss the vintage 2017-18 Eiffel Tower tree vibe
  2. Interesting that the end of the press release mentions a park in California that's being run under contract. I thought they ended the contract with Gilroy Gardens back in 2021? Is that now reactivated? Or is this a mistake on a press release that highlights marketing and communications?
  3. I've read about the event and it wasn't a success. I do like that they have an event a sawmill creek resort that celebrates the season with some Winterfest touches.
  4. LOOKS. All of Kings Dominion is not open. They have no parade. Candy Apple Grove had a computer problem recently and the entire area went dark. The fans seemed to understand. Our fans would have complained for weeks. I'm not a fan of these pills at all, but to imply that KI doesn't go out is not a good point. I celebrate Kings Dominion and Carowinds for their event.
  5. I agree. They either need to **** or get off the pot with the PassPerks disaster.
  6. Wow, such a miserable time it's sounds like you have whenever you go to a park. Have you considered that folks who don't open up the wallet and spend money contribute to the problems you constantly bemoan?
  7. How to tie the Junkyard Coaster into Rivertown, your post, and heck, even the Coney Mall of yesteryear with the shaped ginko trees. Start at 9:10:
  8. I wonder why the Belschnickles only lasted one season at Kings Island? Seems like it would be a natural fit for the park, with the German heritage of the city. They are very popular at Kings Dominion, according to their fan pages on socials. Kings Dominion: I judge you admirable. Kings Island: I judge you impish.
  9. I think, in the past, the title was "Area Manger, Digital Communications" ( or maybe social media?)
  10. For those with multiple visits this season, is it a rotating menu or different carve it ups each weekend?
  11. I'm ever the optimist. But what corporate did across the chain this year was very short sighted. I guess you take the good with the bad, though. People whine that KI is spoiled and gets everything, but when the cuts come ki was hard hit,, to the point of it not being hidden. Anecdotally, I was at three other cf parks this summer and didn't see visible cuts. But then again, not being a regular there, I couldn't see deets.
  12. I live in the country. We don't have recycle bins here. Ive never heard of Reach Magazine...must be...past it's prime
  13. Canada's Wonderland sold BIC when I was there in May as well.
  14. What recycle bin? Didn't the environmental Grinch steal them all into his gray bags to take any cost savings back to corporate?
  15. One word: moist. Try to avoid the use of the word moist while being in Kings Island in the summertime. (Shudders at the thought of it)
  16. I saw this was being talked about at Kings Dominion, but haven't heard about it at KI. Sounds really cool! Thanks for getting the word out!
  17. Having the webcam on at work, on the 2nd monitor. Idiots are mounting the polar bears and acting a fool. I hope the polar bears are anchored into the ground. This is what you get with cheap passes. Bah humbug, I reckon.
  18. Did anyone here ride the train last night, and if so, can you update?
  19. Wait, so they have a cash register there?
  20. The Italian Job's "splash down" was a concrete basin with some weak jets. The plumbing for the OG car rides water features likely was removed.
  21. I really liked them too! But keep in mind that while KD has them, they do not have a parade this year. And poor Worlds of Fun.
  22. The parade looks like it is going to be a great show! I think I counted 7 floats, can't remember last year's count. From my perspective, it looked like they had enough performers, so hopefully not a huge budget cut.
  23. Also, this particular post says "if you are using a credit card..." Six Flags is cashless, I believe.
