I think this puts to rest that it will keep the same name as fire in the hole and use a new name.

They literally filed trademark for Fire in the Hole in February.  No, they're going to keep the same name.

^ Thanks Swoosh- that's great news!  That gives me hope that the ride will be at least similar.

I am expecting something similar to how Zambezi Zinger was revived at Worlds Of Fun. It will have the same name, but a much different ride experience.

Update, rode Fire in the Hole today and there's a new sign at the beginning of the ride that says volunteers needed!

They also posted a graphic to social that says volunteers needed.

I would assume there will be an announcement email sign up page posted soon.

There is a date of 8.16 floating around, but not sure where it came from.

8/16 is national roller coaster day, and it's the day that parks have chosen to make announcements in the past few years. I believe they had the big media reveal for Time Traveler on NRCD back in 2017.

Thanks for the explanation!

^ Outlaw Run's announcement was August 9th, 2012- my birthday!  So early to mid August seems to be the time.

Mystic River Falls was announced on August 13, 2019. Keeping with the early to mid August theme

This was posted a little while ago on Facebook.  "Volunteers needed"

Man this forum is dead. lol  :P
I guess everyone is waiting for the announcement of the worst kept secret.

Today they posted a link to sign up for info and a few minutes ago posted "tomorrow"

My guess is sending out info tomorrow about a press conference the first week of august to finally officially announce the new fire in the hole.

Announcement will be on 8.14.23 according to their social posts today.

Has anyone been to the park lately and got any new pics of the site?   Been hoping for an update.

Lampie

I went on the 4th, but didn't take any pics. There was a little more progress on the facade but not that much from my previous visit in April.

But there has been big progress on heartland home furnishings. The new building looks to be framed(at least all exterior walls, and they had the rafters and plywood all done for the roof. It's big. It's more visible from the main path than it used to be.
