Thank you, Terpy!

Heres the most interesting part

''Next year, we will roll out a new digital imaging program, FunPix, along with free wi-fi, at our five largest properties; we will expand the testing and implementation of our new mobile application programs; we will look to expand our operating season through additional multi-week special events; and we will continue testing a new virtual reality experience on a roller coaster at Canada's Wonderland in partnership with VR Coaster and Mack."

Let the rumors fly.

we will look to expand our operating season through additional multi-week special events

 

Can you say "Winterfest"?

FunPix sounds like it would be something to do with ride photos and adding wifi to more parks fits with the plans to improve said parks mobile apps

FunPix sounds like it would be something to do with ride photos ...

More than that. It'll be cool. Stay tuned.

I am envisioning something similar to Disney`s PhotoPass system.  But without having Photopass photographers stationed all over the park.  It will certainly be interesting to see how this program evolves.

I just hope it means easy entry into the park, unimpeded by whining, begging, pleading, desperate teenage "photographers."

Well, that and better food served more expeditiously.

I knew someone would bring up the front gate photogs
