26 years!? Congratulations guys!! That's awesome! I'm glad I shared the park with you. I'll be back again in the future 😁

Yes, do Knott’s! Also love seeing this park, it was the park I grew up with back when it was still Paramount. Glad to see how much Cedar Fair has taken care of and improved this park plus how much they seem to be making future investments in the park.

Of course!

The park WAS going to go away...but it sure does not seem like it at all these last 2 years with all the money being put into new rides, refurbs and improvements around the park. I heard after decades of the city treating the park badly...when it was going to leave they actually looked into it and it generates money and some tourism for the city and the current Mayor does not want it to close...just for warehouses... I am going to try and make it out there for Carnival...if falls in a weird time between our annual June Lake trip in July and another trip I have at the end of July-August.

@Eldons_Excursions

Ай бұрын

Exactly! The mayor really wants this park to stay, as do all of us lol don't leave us with six flags... pleeeeease. It's like being stuck with the parent who doesn't love you 😆 I hope you make it up here, man! It's a lot of fun and good food!

Fountain is new, popped up a couple weeks ago. As for Knott's, go if you want to see stuff under construction but as of right now, hearing that they won't have the new Camp Snoopy stuff up until late June or into July. Next time you're in the park, there is another show that happens in Hometown, a barbershop quartet known as Hometown Harmony. They're also a very fun group that sounds great! Saw 50s Jukebox Live for the first time yesterday and it's definitely a fantastic show!

@Eldons_Excursions

I had a feeling that was new! Lol it's a neat addition to the area. Well as far as the construction, I guess I could give a construction update while I'm down there lol I'll definitely have to check out that show. Jukebox Live was very entertaining!

When you go to Magic Mountain, see if you can check out their hurricane harbor as well. I have been hearing rumors of a possible new water slide coming there sometime in the next few years because their mat racer slide closed for good pretty recently. Check around the back of the park near their tornado slide to see if there is any construction. (Also can't wait for the Gilroy Gardens video).

The thing is that California's Great America is supposed is set to close at 2033. We are SEVERAL years away from that. It's not even close. So of course they have to keep the rides maintained and bring in new stuff. 2033 is long ways away. I used to go there as a kid, up until the teenage years. I haven't gone back since though. There are a few attractions that I know they don't got any more. Such as the Nickelodeon water park area in Great American itself. Then there was that live action theater. They used to have Days of Thunder and then James Bond side in it. Those 2 were classics!! Your chair would move as the film was going.

Was just there Fri and Sat and looked over the fence to the left of Orbit and from what I saw it appears that Rapids may not ever open? It looked completely abandoned and dilapidated. It really bummed me out. What do you think? Will it be able to come back from that?

@Eldons_Excursions

Ай бұрын

Oh yeah, it'll definitely come back. They're doing some refurbishment. Cutting back trees and other foliage. They have to completely drain it so nothing gets in the water and into the pumps.

Can't say I'm happy about Discovery Kingdom giving up on the Flash Vertical Velocity and all the other numerous closed rides at Discovery Kingdom vs Great America trying to keep everything refurbished and running. I say scrap Kong and give Boomerang a huge refurbishment with the updated Vekoma vest restraint trains. Sucks that Flash could now be doomed for the chopping Block.

@Eldons_Excursions

Ай бұрын

Yeah, I definitely agree. I think it's because great america just has newer rides, and they also have their issues, but they don't keep them down as long. Hopefully this will change for six flags with this merger.

GR8 SK8 is the one kid ride in planet Snoopy that is basically the skateboard ride where you go forward and backward and it’s very fun. Once it reopens, you need to try it out.
