Dorney Plans to Add a ride!

Well its nice to see that Dorney's turning out to be a respectable force out East for Cedar Fair.

Just wait till next year!

No, rollergator, URC is still my home. But I do post once (or even twice) every few months on CB.

I wonder if the removal of the Laser Show has really any TRUTH to it. If so, I wonder if I has to deal with neighbors complaints, whom Dorney have had serious problems with in the past.

If thats the case,l believe that this will make the 3rd attraction cancled within the year.
1: Stratosphere coaster, 2: SFWOA/Geauga Lake coaster, 3: The Dorney Laser Show

Any clue whether or not the land that was being smoothed out near Thunderhawk ever got made into something? Any clue if the Paratrooper is going to return?

On a side note, Dorney's attendence was up 15% this year to just over 1.5 million this year. This helped Cedar Fair offset poor attendance at other parks, most notably Cedar Point which was down almost 9% this year (3.1x million). I'm glad to see CF putting some money into Dorney. It should provide some competition for SFGAdv and make things better for thrillseekers in the east.

Well I knew CP's attendence was going to be down a little bit, remember the constant month of rain, but 9% is more than I would expect.

Im going to miss the laser light show for one reason ant that would be that every night during the summer people would flock to the show and there wouldn't be hardly any lines at all!!

what are you talking about Shaggy, the Omegatron is not going to Michigan's Adventure they arent getting any attractions like that.

"The expansion will feature rides and attractions that have proven to be very popular at
our other parks, including a 40-foot-tall hydroflume raft slide that combines water with the thrills of a roller coaster; a nostalgic family train ride; Dodgem bumper
cars; a kids' go-kart track; and a themed children's car ride. Other attractions added will be a 15-story-tall RipCord ride and a full-sized go-kart track, both of
which will be separate-charge attractions."

I dont see any Vekoma SkyFlyer type description in there.
