We're going to be there Saturday -- can hardly wait.  It has been too long since we've been to an "outdoor" amusement park.

Roll call...who is here today...
Rube Dugans! great day to be in the park, Warmed up to about 60ish about 2-3pm. No crowds. Parking was a bit of a challenge, but managed to park in C, but they called it Lot 2or3. I didnt mind some of the shops not being open, I just enjoyed walking around the park BEFORE all the festivals start. It always looks bigger without the sheds and kiosks selling items.

Great day! Rode powderkeg, thunderation 3 times, didn't get to ride the train (you can imagine how disapointed I was) got some great fried pickles at the lumbercamp and saw what looked like some cleaned up scenes on the flooded mine and fire in the hole....once again great day..oh and I think the green trams are no more, had these weird truck-pulled white ones....sigh

Can we get confirmation on the trams? It would be a shame if they're gone, but I'd understand seeing as they could only run along the top of the hill.

rubedugans

I also was a bit saddened by the absence of the Green Trams. Yes they were a bit old and bouncy at times, and probably warrented a lot of upkeep, but I always remember those trams being.

Copper

Yes, no more green trams and we have new busses too. I understand that the green trams are iconic, but these ones run more efficient and meet ADA standards so much more then the old ones.
