I think you guys may be taking things too literally here.  Clearly, the shot tower and the L'il Swings will be here, but outside of that we can only speculate.  The Bucket Brigade in the concept art suggest a probably high chance of definitely having a "ball pit" type attraction in the area, too.  Outside of that, I think the big/little discussion means that this is the little addition, and the big addition will come later in the form of a coaster.

And if you are just joining us, other than there being a firefighter theme, don't you think they will leave the Bald Knobbers to FitH?  I would love it if there would be some wanted posters or something around the FL area, but I wouldn't hold out any hopes for that.

But the way Swoosh said it made it sound the little and big additions will come in the same year. He also said that we won't see a new coaster until at least 2016.

Regarding 2015.... What's a fire without some water?

[History Buff]

^Obviously.

[History Buff]

^^Of course, if it's a grease fire...

[History Buff]

What a bunch of hosers!

So when you say should we do the big ride or small ride first, do you mean the big log flume (AP) or a new smaller log flume that will be going into the new area?

[Swoosh]

It's already been answered.

Shot tower now, coaster later?

Ugh, look: the rumor is that a kiddie drop tower could be added to the area to go along with the bigger S&S double shot. It's still speculative, but its another one of those things where if you look hard enough you'll find some clues that could support it.

No one on this board knows when the next coaster is coming or what it will be. As always, we can only offer rumors and speculation, no matter how much some would have you believe. 


The biggest thing I'm still pondering is how they'll arrange the current main structure to accommodate flow into the expanded area. Will they demolish parts of the old structure, or perhaps make the ground floor of the former main ballpit a breezeway into the new area? It's kind of a difficult setup to work around with lots of possibilities depending on how ambitious they are going to be.

[Swoosh]

It's all gone. Fresh start.

[History Buff]

As strange as it sounds, it has been said that the old structure is not a part of the new area and is to be completely removed - unless Swoosh just said it has already been removed.  The original concepts even said the current structure would be a part of the final design, but a complete demolition and rebuild seems to be in order.  Fine by me.

[Swoosh]

It's still standing for now.

Shave, at this point are you ok with sharing of the deets of FL on this site since it is close to the announcement?

[History Buff]

Those who have details about FL are keeping it to themselves out of respect for the reveal process.
