Might be old but a bit of fiberglass here and there, new paint job.. look good as new.

Seems a bit of a set back.. all the marketing for re-living a 'childhood favourite' and not being ready for the birthday bash.

Sounds like they didn't realise the extend of the damage the lake has caused, gonna be a mighty task getting that back to normal.
At least they can work on it during opening days, so might get done sooner or later.

Work on the queue line has now started with a few of the boats now on the lake. They'll look really good when this opens soon :)

Loving this advance warning on Facebook:



If only the larger parks would follow suit and let people know when things were closed ;)

Yeah its good, though it seems a bit strange for scheduled maintenance to take place in August...
