I have one of those count down clocks on my desktop, you can set it to any date you wish. That's also to my b-day. :)

Keep in mind, that while April 19th is not open to the general public because the park is sold out. However, the park is no longer closed on the first Saturday in June for a park sell out like it used to be several years ago.

I agree. A park sellout on "opening day" is a great way to break in the newbies.

I wouldn't mind being one of those so called "newbies" this year, but we'll see.

Doesn't really matter to me what opening day is, since I probably won't go until May anyway, when it is much warmer.

Update

Boomerang Bays schedule has been released.

Boomerang Bay is open May 24 – August 17 from 11am to 7pm; August 18 – 22 from Noon to 6pm, and August 30 – September 1 from 11am to 7pm.

Looks like the bay will close early this year.

Regardless of what day opening day is, I will be there. Its been a tradition of mine for the last 15 years.

The only reason that Boomerang Bay will close early this year is because Labor Day occurs on the first of September this year.

Depending on how my co-op situation shakes out in the next month, I may or may not make it to Kings Island on April 20th. I may be several hours south of Cincinnati (like down in Florida)!

Last year opening day was a beautiful day as far as weather goes but as far as rides and such, only about half were up and running all day. It also took me an hour to get sum skyline.

It wasn't that the rides weren't open at all, they were just a lot of delays. It seemed that everytime I went to a ride, it was closed down for a while.

Maybe since the 19th it's a park rental, by the 20th things will be running a bit better.

90 days 23 hours. It will be here soon!

Time goes way too fast anyway. Trust me, it'll be here soon, heck it's already almost been a month since Christmas.

I wish Kings Island would stay open all year but ohios weather varies ALOT.

Yeah... maybe we can all lift Kings Island up and take it to Florida? :P

Don't we all?

Hey, there is snow on the ground right now!

And next Tuseday, It'll be 48 Degrees!

No, we don't all. If we ALL wanted it to be warm all the time, we'd ALL move to Florida. And it even gets cold in some parts of Florida from time to time.

Some of us like it here, weather and all.

Some of would rather live even further north, were it not for our family.

So, no...we don't all wish it would be warm in Ohio all the time.

Quite honestly, I love having all 4 seasons being well defined.

Wearing shorts at Christmas, or not worrying about a St. Patrick's Day snowstorm just wouldn't feel right.

We had snow in Atlanta twice last week.

It was the first time in 8 or 9 years that we had snow.

It was horrible!

^ When I lived in Dallas it snowed a few times, and each time the city pretty much shut down--even with only an inch or so of snow. (Of course, what are they thinking putting sand down on the roads instead of salt!?! ;) )

I've also seen it snow in Charleston, SC and Las Vegas! (Let's just say that I don't have very good luck traveling in January :) )
