Grand Texas will open water park next Memorial Day, amusement park the year after that

I have been watching this closely. At this time I am VERY tentatively planning a Texas trip for summer 2016.

schlitterbahn, Sea World, Fiesta Texas, SFOT, and this place if it opens.

If you're in the Houston area, don't miss Kemah - BBullet is TGG's answer to GCI's twisters...not even Hershey's Wildcat ever ran like that...

Cool. I will add that to the list! The current plan looks something like..

Leave Iowa.. stop in at WoF for the missing Prowler credit (it was closed the night I went last year).

Then to Dallas from there for SFoT

Then to Houston for Grand Texas and I will add Kemah now.

Then to San Antonio area for Schlitterbahn, Sea World and Fiesta Texas..

And a forever long drive back home.

Is Frontier City worth the stop? Other than for credit whoring purposes? I will be driving right by it.

Frontier City, only visited once over a decade ago. One of two locations to ride a Vaszin wooden coaster (the other is Chapultepec). There's also a Schwarzopf looper (the only looping star model left in the US), and an Arrow shuttle loop - anyone remember those?

There's a Herschell kiddie that replaced the old Herschell kiddie...so I'm going to assume you'll still need a child to ride with you; and a family inverted. Have to say, with Chance being located up the road in Wichita, I'd have gone with theirs before picking up the Vekoma, but that's just me....

I remember an old-style non-interactive dark ride that was pretty cool, and a couple other flats, but I recall someone telling me that they'd gotten rid of their S&S slingshot (erUPtion) that was included in the POP.

NOT the friendliest of parks...but like I said, I was there a LONG time ago. For me, the question goes like this : "Do I plan to be in Oklahoma again?" If not, spend a few hours and have some fun at a park you may never have the opportunity to visit again - like me with Bell's...

I will probably stop by for a few hours then. I will have my daughter along..but she might be too tall at age 7. Anyway, I hope this Grand Texas thing turns out to be cool but I really want to see the coaster lineup.
