The Wild Escape Theme Park plans to have more than 40 acres of the park completed by next summer, and employ 1000 people, 400 year round. The plan includes shops, restaurants, rides, and indoor entertainment. The company also plans on building two hotels, an indoor water park and an outdoor water park. One third of the park will be open year round.

Still, clearly visable in the park renderings is a wooden coaster as well as some type steel coaster Ziere or rollerskater from the renedering, A giant wheel, a observation or drop tower.
I hope they get TGG, Indications from my little bird is that TTG has enough projects to keep em busy for some time to come.
Somefins fishy or one project didn't get the green light and the other did.
I don't believe that the WV park will get very far if it gets built at all. KW and GL have so much to offer and these parks are both likely to get even better in the future.
I do believe that a waterpark could go over well near Wheeling, however. I also believe that it would be a good idea if one of the FECs north of Pittsburgh like Wildwood Highlands or Fun Fore All would add a waterpark. *** This post was edited by Arthur Bahl 7/28/2006 2:09:09 PM ***
... so they're going to have free strippers and beer, then?...
Imagine a place where you can be transported from reality to a place where your wildest dreams come true.
Don't count the smaller parks out either. Waldameer and DelGrossos have some works in progress and I can see bigger things for Idlewild in the future as well.
They look like they are more in the sticks than I am!
