PhantomTheater Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 http://www.facebook....ny/501741920841 CNL Lifestyle Properties, Inc., owners of Darien Lake Theme Park Resort and Elitch Gardens, and Herschend Family Entertainment (HFE), the nation's largest family-owned theme park corporation, jointly announced today that HFE would assume the day-to-day management of both properties starting January 25, 2011. Hopefully they spruce up DL a little bit. Quote
trint2004 Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Maybe they will also teach there employees at DL, what its like to be friendly too. This past summer i went there for the first time and and didnt even stay the whole day do too the rudeness of everyone employee that I came into contact with. I hope the do something there.. Quote
Delirium13 Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 I'd like to see how Herschend would run Kings Island. To me, they seem like they'd do a good job. Sorry, I know that's slightly off-topic... Quote
The Interpreter Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Wait just a minute. Herschend is NOT acquiring these properties, they are merely going to manage them (for now): ... HFE will become the management company for all properties; CNL Lifestyle Properties remains the owner. ... Edit: Topic title now corrected. Thanks! Quote
The Interpreter Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Related thereto, the former owner of Wild Waves will manage it for CNL in a very similar deal: http://www.pnwlocalnews.com/south_king/fwm/business/114596329.html Quote
pkiboy Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 I haven't been to Darien Lake yet but I hear that they wont accept Debit or Credit cards at there food stands. Hope this changes if I visit this year. Quote
