While I would love for it to be a ride, I'm half expecting it to be the return of indoor entertainment based on the building in the photo.

I agree that may be it but it may also be the beginning of the teaser campaign.

It has everything to do with entertainment.

The Harlem Globetrotters are returning to Silver Dollar City June 12 - August 8. They will be inside Red Gold Heritage Hall.

Looks like I knew what I was talking about

So... When you going to tell us about the fence...?

I already did. I even posted a picture of it.
Now if you're talking what's going to be behind the fence, that'll have to wait. Lots of moving parts right now going on behind the scenes.

@Swoosh. You may have said this in the past but do you have any connection with the park or are you just a fan? Seems like you have plenty of knowledge on what is happening/going to happen!

Let's just say I've been around the industry for a long time and leave it vague.

Over the week-off days, the fence has grown and is now extending behind part of the smoke area in front of the waterboggan tower. If this is really the gerstlauer coaster, I can definitely see it. Challenging terrain, possibly having to work with the train tracks (above/possibly below it). This could be a really unique thing going here.

Hopefully it won't be a clear cut demo of the natural landscape like their past few attractions.

EDIT: Looking back on a couple other posters who mentioned it, could it be possible that they are indeed finally demo-ing the tower which would necessitate the need for a fence? Nothing more, nothing less?

Anyone else see the news about the RMC family hybrid?

It has me wondering if the construction at SDC is related. It seems like a rough spot to fit a coaster into, especially if they stick to SDC's norm of keeping coasters mostly out of sight.

I'm not saying it is or is not anything as big as a new ride - but I don't think it is just taking the tower down:

Apparently they are just re-working the pathways to accommodate crowds. The pumpkin nights trail is being widened somehow. I thought it was pretty undersized when they first built it.

As for the next coaster, I don't think SDC is going back with RMC anytime soon. For a family coaster, they will probably go back to Vekoma or Gerstauler.
