New this year

It wasnt a starlight price; just regular one-day admission. It came in the "card" form like the discount KI tickets at Krogers. They also had ride/slide, junior, and senior tickets available. I had to look twice myself.

^^ I was looking through the news paper ads today and seen that Discount Drug Mart was offering the one day passes for something like $38.

I am sure T&t already talked about this, but what kind of stuff will that screen say? Ride closures and such?

It may even look like this at times.

Kidding. I'm excited for all the subtle upgrades this year! I have a feeling it's going to be a really good season.

Well then I would say the Meijer discount is just a "tad" better at almost 18 dollars off. This is great for us as we have to forgo passes this year due to a move to Louisville, OH.

That sign looks fabulous.

Three things you need to fix anything in the universe: duct tape, WD-40, and a hammer. Duct tape if it moves and it shouldn't, WD-40 if it doesn't move and should, and the hammer as the last resort.

No, no, no! It better be not running Windows. Get Linux on there immediately!! :D

Let's just say I'd have to get a picture if it were to BSOD.

Of course I'm still convinced a Linux-based admissions system would be best. But alas, anything is better than what they had, right? ;)

Maybe they should just go Mac...I'm converting today (my iMac is being delivered) sooo excited.

15 more days! I really wanna go to opening day. I wonder how busy it will be this year...

I would hate to be the person that puts them all together and puts them out on the midway. I would never know were to put them. And they always look like they are in the same spot every year.

The point poll is a cool feture. The signs look really good, it will be fun to look while waiting for tickets and stuff.

Can anyone else confirm the $25 regular admission for an adult discount price from Meijer?


Shoot the rapids, tame and dry. Thunder Canyon, wet and laughter. Snake River Falls, soaked and smiling. White Water Landing and the old shoot the rapids, Fun and missed.

I love that screen over the entrance. It ought to look impressive in person.

I'm loving the improvements. I hope the park continues to make improvements when needed each year, and not wait another 5-10 years.

Do you think I'm just making it up? Go to a Meijer. Specifically, the one here in Canal Winchester.

That is why you rely on returning employees. They remember where all the cans go.

As for the new screen at the front gate, it looks nice except for the front gate is very dirty under the screen. It desperately needs pressure washed. And the exposed conduit to the right of the screen, come on Cedar Point. Don't half ass this thing, that should be out of sight. Aside from that, looks great!
