The family is planning on visiting next week sometime. Is the park comparable to last year?

We are excited to ride the train into the woods to hear from Grandpa. Last year, listening in the wood chips area was neat, but it will be good to get back to tradition. My littlest wants to ride Fire in the Hole, and it would be their first and last chance on that particular ride. So many memories...

Silver Dollar City made the front page of the Business & Finance section above the fold:

Nothing too new, but neat nonetheless...

Was just at the city this past weekend. Crowds weren't too bad, but I did see something new (or that I don't remember). When riding the Elehpant March, Fire Spotter, and the racing regatta, the rides seemed to freewheel quite a bit before they stopped. I remember from prior trips a more gradual deceleration that seemed assisted by a brake. This time it seemed like the rides slowed due to their own friction.

Maybe I'm misremembering...

504 was pulling coaches today. No jokes about brakes, old wreak, or engineer's abilities.

So...with weather conditions being pretty bad this Thursday, will SDC close?

Perfect! Thanks everyone!

Hello!

I've read these forums for years, but I haven't posted much...but I finally had a question.

My family went to SDC between Christmas and New Years last year, and we found the Reunion Hall to be closed. One of our favorite traditions is eating the prime rib dinner while everyone else is at the parade.

The website seems to show that the Reunion Hall is open...but the app doesn't list it. Does anyone on the ground have any firsthand knowledge?

Thanks
