Also be taking as many photos of the GG buildings and stuff as you can -- it sounds like it is ALL coming down.  AND with that in mind, throw that concept art out that you have posted, it won't look anything like that other than theme.

If this ends up being true, then i'm kind of disappointed. I feel like the GG Town Hall is iconic for the park at this point for at least the modern generation.

First, thank you for keeping us in focus. I think we should still assume good will on SDC's part. So far, they've done a really good job.  

Honestly, I think we could still see a mashup of a few of these ideas that were tested or maybe even something totally different. Fireman could be one part of a larger idea. Personally, if they do go with a big Fireman theme, I hope to see something more complex than just SDC Fire Station #2 with a big red GG.  Maybe the fireworks factory is on fire and the SDC fire crew came to save the day?

By the way: I really like idea of "Fireman's Gulch"!

I'll be the first to say it; "I don't know what I'm talking about".

Now with that out of the way    , I'm not excited about this new SteelHawk. I'm sure this addition is a smart move for WOF, but I just don't see how this will add much value to the park.  I think Planet Snoopy added more to WOF then this does. I wish they had spent the money on something else.  Perhaps clean the park up a bit, give TimberWolf some TLC, or even replace TimberWolf. Hey maybe they could bring back the old Steamboat!!!

Overall, I'm glad WOF still gets some love from time to time. I can't wait for the day they add something on the level of their sister park; Cedar Point. I would LOVE to have a Gatekeeper or Millennium Force  .

I don't think the current structure will be completely dismantled though.  It should only get a facelift.  It will be nice to have a new, more appropriate, color scheme.  Many of the current features will be simple to retool into a new theme, as well.

I would hope they wouldn't try to remove too much of the current structure. I attended the park before the days of GG, as much as I miss the days before GG, the Town Hall structure has become an iconic building for the park IMO.

   Hmm...not sure how I feel about this one.

Welp, only time will tell if it lives up to the Silver Dollar City name.

I was at the park yesterday and they announced that an official announcement about the addition will be made public in August.

An eyesore!  Not that I wish ill for SDC, but I hope it fails as a generator of profit.

Since we're all talking about the Hi-Striker, I posted my other picture of it on Frickr. Also, it looks like SDC updated the waterwheel at the mill house (Photo also included).

Cheers.
