I will admit its been a while since I managed to visit this
park. It's such a nice park. the parks art deco theme and long
central grass courtyard. This park has amazing dark rides. In
fact they are what really make this park for me. The coasters
re OK. Dragon has a great layout but back then was in horribly
bad need of rehab which I doubt its seen. Valor is a fun Flying
coaster and I enjoyed but like many compact coaster had a lot of
jerky transitions. The mouse was horrible and The flyer coaster
was ok for a kiddie family coaster. I have never been on the
wooden kiddie coaster but I would like to try it out.
one flat I hope they still have and Wish took of more what the
Sky Skater. It didn't do much just rolled back and forth but it
was a lot of fun and was very accommodating to a range of
guests.

Sounds like the people who were supposed to start operating the
park are not going to anymore

Interesting. Problem is every time Things get turned around all
that happens is nothing gets done at the park and They need to
get things done.

^I would tend to agree but those folks probably were not the
best choice to run the park. They were chosen by the previous
county administration and were not seeing eye to eye. It is best
to move on with something that can be well supported by
government.

The CBS show Instinct (Sundays 8PM) has an episode Sunday 7/7
that has the stars investigating a murder on a roller coaster.
A 2 second piece of the preview for that episode looks like the
coaster is Rye Playland's Dragon Coaster.

Did anybody hear about the 10 million going to refurb the
carousel and derby racer?

I can't say I have. It seems a bit steep for those 2 rides. The
carousel house doesn't seem that damaged from the fire and even
a full restoration fo the carousel Would be a fraction fo that
10 million. Hard to guess what a full rehab of derby racer would
be but it was working very well with no issues when I visited.
