"Limited ride availability on Friday evenings; some coasters and Camp Snoopy closed."

In other words, I don't think there's a list yet.

Last year, everything from Witches Wheel to Maverick was closed. Also a few minor flats in the areas not listed were also closed, but as for coasters Gemini, Jr. Gemini, and Woodstalk Express were the only ones closed (although Im not sure if CCMR was open, it might be closed too.)

Yeah that isn't bad at all, from hearing TR's for the past years Friday nights seem to be the best night to go. Is the price lowered for Friday nights to?

^It's just the starlight fee(25.95.) Make sure you don't use a normal day pass!

While a lot of people don't like it, it seems like a major ride to close.

I hate Mantis but I am surprised it is closed too....

Not a crowd predicting question but how dead does it tend to be for them to leave so many rides closed?

I went last sunday and walked onto everything. I did TTD 2 times, MF once and Maverick all in one hour.

^ - Its not so much a matter of the park being "dead" as it is staffing. Most of the ride ops have to make the trek from college to work Halloweekends. I would wager that most of them get into town sometime DURING Friday evenings, not nearly early enough to have 70 rides up and running for the evening.

Most ride ops come in on Thursday or Friday. If they are on a ride that isn't open on Fridays they are moved to another ride that is open on Fridays.

Last friday was a blast regardless. I will be back this sunday, hoping it wont be too busy because of the extended hours.

Looking at the TRs from last year, I have high hopes for this Sunday being a very light crowd day.
