BoddaH1994 Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Beat the Heat at Boomerang Bay Five additional days added to popular water park's season at Kings Island. Kings Island, Ohio - Boomerang Bay Water Park Resort at Kings Island will open for five additional days this month (August 20-24) to provide guests a great opportunity to enjoy all the down-under excitement in the park's very own Australian Oasis. Daily operations for Boomerang Bay were originally scheduled to end August 19. Boomerang Bay offers more than 50 water activities including 30 water slides, tropical lagoons, rushing rivers, surfable waves, three family activity areas and careening waterfalls surrounded by lush landscaping. In addition, Boomerang Bay offers a variety of five-star, resort quality amenities such as lounge chair-side waiter service, cabanas, full bar facilities and family changing rooms. Entrance to Boomerang Bay is included with park admission. "We've had great water park weather this summer and many of our guests have requested that we extend the daily operating schedule for Boomerang Bay," said Greg Scheid, Kings Island's vice president and general manager. "We're pleased that we're going to be able to meet our guests' request by offering five additional days of fun at our fantastic water park." Boomerang Bay operating hours August 20-24 will be 12-6 p.m. All of the water park's most popular attractions are expected to be open. Some attractions starting times may vary.

CoastersRZ Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Likely, staffing will be an issue that week. Not just for Boomerang Bay, but the park in general. I know that at Coney, the rides will be under restricted hours that same week due to staffing issues. At Coney, the rides will be open from 1-8 pm, instead of the usual 11 to 9 pm.

Keysersoze Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 They where open all the way into the holiday last year weren't they. I was there with family Aug 26 2006 (I know cause I got a on-ride photo from that day) and I remeber spending some time in the water park.

WooferBearATL Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 They where open all the way into the holiday last year weren't they. I was there with family Aug 26 2006 (I know cause I got a on-ride photo from that day) and I remeber spending some time in the water park. Which is what I thought. I can't think of a time that WaterWorks/Boomerang Bay really every closed so early. So what they've done <G> is turned into an announcement that they're going to do something that has always been done. Now That's Good Marketing!

PKIVortex Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Actually it wasn't uncommon for the water park to be closed the final week of daily operation. Then the water park opened back up for labor day weekend. That last week of daily operation is though for the park to staff the main park not to mention the water park.
