If you're within 2 hours of Cedar Point, you aren't close to Michigan's Adventure. ;)

Ahhh. I try to know as little as possible about Michigan, so I wasn't sure. :)

I know that this isn't supposed to be a wish list, but...

I wish they would do something with Kiddie Kingdom. It seems that all that they have there is a bunch of cloned rides that all do the same exact thing. Camp Snoopy could be better too.

Kiddy Kingdom has the ride's it has because that's what kids ride. They're not clones. Police Cars and Old Timers are complete different rides. One has police cars the other has old style cars. Very different experiences. ;)

I love Camp Snoopy the way it is. I would like to see more characters there all-the-time.

OK...a little bump here, only because we now know that whatever T and T were identifying had nothing to do with Halloweekends, and that was always a possibility.

So...apparantly it is for something new.

Again, we're on page 17, and we know zip.

I'm not sure I want to be pulling the "New for '08" trigger in the Cleveland area while just putting those folks on notice that you couldn't salvage Geauga Lake. It certainly makes for an interesting marketing dillema.

The folks in Cleveland are too happy about the Indians to care about GL.

Besides, if the Cleveland area really loved GL, they might have visited it once or twice. They didnt, and it has to go bye bye.

It will be missed by the 8 people who went this year.

How do we know what they were hinting at wasn't the float storage structure? Did I miss something over the weekend?

Kevinj's avatar

Well we dont, i guess...but they never mentioned it again in any update, so I am assuming that it will be mentioned again towards season's end.

They're sometimes slow on announcements. Or, they "forget" things sometimes. So, I wouldn't be surprised if they never mentioned that again or said something later about the new parade storage buildings. "Remember our new parade? Well, we need a place to store the floats in the Winter. Look what we just built.....blah blah blah."

I wouldn't count your chickens for a new 2008 attraction just yet.

Parade storage units. That's it. Done.

The only things that are 100% certain for 08 that I know of if is that nick toons are coming and that snoopy is going to be phased out. Only other thing I know is that someone has now purchased Demon Drop so it will probably not be there next year.

I know nothing but it sounds like a strange circumstance to "phase out" Snoopy. I mean, you've got "Camp Snoopy", Snoopy rooms at Breakers, Snoopy on Ice.

Are we moving to a "Jimmy Neutron on Ice"?

And, where's the info on someone buying Demon Drop?


eat. sleep. ride! - Coaster apparel and accessories!

Ride on, MrScott!

Yeah I mean Snoopy Is Awesome here at Cedar Point! Taking him out of the Cedar Fair Parks would be like trading in a Cadillac for a ford. Nothing against ford, the newer fords are great, but the old ones suck! I have nothing against Nickolodian characters, but Snoopy and the Peanuts have established themselves here.

Demon Drop was actually purchaesed by a employee of CP. She has been working there this summer. She lives in LasVegas. Just a little inside scoop.

Kevinj's avatar

Since when did Demon Drop have a buyer?

Josh M.'s avatar

So... a seasonal dished out the quarter million dollars for Demon Drop? And is going to take it back to Las Vegas with her?

Why does that sound fishy to me?
