I think the strategy of additional attractions in dry parks and
water parks may be very different. The competition is different
and the expectations of the patrons may be different also. So
comparing the strtegy at Water Country to Story Land is probably
apples to oranges.

Perhaps, mostly pointing out a property within the same company
in a tourist area with a built-in draw.
That aside let us look at area waterparks. Every park with an
added waterpark has added one or more attractions in the last
decade. Every stand-alone water park in New England has added
one or more attractions since Dr. Von Dark was added to the
water country. Yes with the fact Water Country is the largest
stand along with waterpark in New England they have less of a
need to expand. but over 10 years is a bit nuts.

How many Batman Arena's still stand:
-New England removed there's for Dark Knight (cancelled), then
put Gauntlet there
-Magic Mountain removed there's for Justice League
-Great Adventure uses there's for Dead Man's Party
-America's is still standing, but I don't know if its used at
all
-Kentucky Kingdom uses their's for Bird Shows

I was looking at Over Georgia and got thinking:
-Lickskillet should be renamed boardwalk as that is the main
theme I see, could probably includes the pavilions in that (but
I don't care)
-create a new area out of Georgia and USA
-add Peachtree (where Acraphobia is) and Coastal (Where there
RMC Cyclone is) to the Promenade (main entrance) area
-could add another entrance.
-They could probably move the Sky Coaster to where the Axis
Arena is and scrap Great American Scream Machine to expand the
water park (which they may not need to for a long time).

Their Western area is one of the best I have seen. very well
themed. I agree I know it seems small but it's a great area.
Past that is a boardwalk themed area. the American Boardwalk is
where Superman ultimate flight is located. It really doesn't
need to be expanded since the Waterpark plays into the theme.
create a new area out of Georgia and USA? What do you mean by
this? They already have the Antibelom area which represents GA
during that period. They have a 50's area it's where Goliath can
be found. This is like the western area very well themed expect
for Goliath's entrance. Keep in mind SFOG was built as a theme
park it wasn't an amusement park turned theme park
add Peachtree (where Acrophobia is) and Coastal (Where there RMC
Cyclone is) to the Promenade (main entrance) area? again not
sure what you're hoping to do here. are you talking signage
Cyclone is part of the Antebellum area? and GA's Coastline is
nothing special or worth promoting.
could add another entrance. They used to have another entrance
it was in the back of the park by GASM. It was removed in the
late '90s around the time Viper was added.
They could probably move the Sky Coaster to where the Axis Arena
is and scrap Great American Scream Machine to expand the water
park (which they may not need to for a long time).
Wouldn't open up much room The sky coaster uses very little
space and GASM goes around a pond. Which by the way floods. So
it wouldn;t really help. Sure GASM is not the best wood coaster
out there but now its there only wood coaster.

I was mainly thinking of replacing Blue Hawk with a Vekoma
eventually.

I haven't had a chance to ride blue hawk with the new trains. I
road it a few times in the '90s the coaster overall is really
good. I know it got shacky but if the new trains help with any
headbanging like the new trains on Riddler It can't be that bad
of a ride nowadays.

Had a rough day get back home from college. Going online from
the 30th. I think the famous David Bianculli regrets not giving
midterm, but also doesn't regret sharing The Ruttles with us
either.

just my opinion but Six Flags should wait til all their 2020
additions are done and postpone all 2021 additions except Magic
Mountian's because they technically got nothing for 2019 or 2020
depending on Member previews vs Grand Opening of WCR
