I know during the winter season I'll be visiting Nickelodeon Universe at Mall of America few times on the weekends till opening day of next year May 2015 season. At least we have another park to visit during the off season still can ride roller coasters all year long.

(Dorney Park has announced that the park will open the Cedar Creek Flyers in 2015, a new Larson Flying Scooters flat ride). Cedar Point and Kings Island already have the rides. This is what Valleyfair could use in there flat ride line up along with a 150 foot Max Air like at Cedar Point put it somewere in front of the park or put a Max Air where the old chaos use to sit fill some of the open grass areas and were the scrambler use to sit put a Cedar Creek Flyers in that circle right now just benches and flags. I would be happy to see Valleyfair get a couple of new flat rides before a new roller coaster comes. They need to add some more flat rides to. Speaking of general park improvements they need to re paint some of the rides like enterprise could use a new paint job re furnish the carousel I thought that was in the works? They also still need to change some of there walk ways in the back of the park plus the parking lot needs some attention and a new park sing?

From this photo someone should ask Dave about relocating Mad Mouse to the front of the park were Antique Autos is tare down the ampitheater and put Mad Mouse there and tare down the games islands to make more room for the water park expansion in the next few years. They could easily relocaete Mad Mouse to the front of the park.

Couldn't they raise the parking lot?

I'm going to the haunt on Sunday does the park still open a 1/2 earlier for platinum season pass holders? Park opens at 11:00am.

Valleyfair height restriction is 275 feet tall so if any new ride or roller coaster they can build it up to 275 feet. When Power Tower was built in 2000 I really think it could have been 300 feet tall but the FAA flying cloud airport put a stop to it.

If the new slides cost $6 million Renegade cost $6.5 million Wild Thing $10 million. How much money does Valleyfair actually have? Does Valleyfair get money from Cedar Fair also? Wild Thing $10 million we could get a good sized B&M inverted coaster around $12 million? Valleyfair could invest in there next roller coaster put some money into it.

When do amusement parks usually start talking about there next season or making plans on what they want to get either for expansion, a new ride or roller coaster?

Is Wild Thing running a two train operation on the weekends for the haunt along with Renegade? I visited Valleyfair a lot this summer never had a issue while waiting in line for Wild Thing, when I went all summer long lines for Wild Thing and Renegade were walk ons. One reason I'm going this weekend is to finally get to do some night rides on Renegade in the back of the woods along with Wild Thing and xtreme swing didn't get a chance to ride them at night during the summer. Also does Mr. Frazier read these forums for ride ideas for Valleyfair or expansion ideas? Valleyfair could get some new toll booths like Carowinds is getting for Fury and a new sing for there 40th anniversary. Someone needs to talk with Mr. Frazier for getting a new B&M inverted coaster for the 2016 season and it is there 40th anniversary if he is aware of it? Even if we don't get a new coaster for 2016 season I would like to see a new giant thrill ride like max air 150 feet put it were the old chaos use to sit in front of the park and add a lake erie flying eagles like at Cedar Point were the old scrambler use to sit nothing there but just a bunch of benches and flags plenty of space for one. They can add two new rides then in 2017 add a new coaster. Cedar Fair seems to be happy with Valleyfair about being a growth park? There's some ideas.

What Valleyfair should do is move the enterprise over by were the old tilt a whirl use to sit by Wild Thing fill some of the open grass areas maybe re paint it and were enterprise is put a giant max air ride like at Cedar Point 150 feet. I've been on the one at Cedar Point and Kings Island. Also were the old scrambler use to sit since its just benches and a big circle why not add a new Lake Erie Flying Eagles like at Cedar Point doesn't take up to much space. On a hot day I consider keeping Rip Tide because Valleyfair doesn't have a lot of water rides to get wet on. I've also enjoyed Rip Tide with out the water being on. If I'm Valleyfair right now don't move or take out any rides. By the way doesn't GM Dave read these forums for ideas for Valleyfair?

Valleyfair should do is add new B&M hyper trains for Wild Thing.

My only guess for 2015 scream scape said something about a new snake pit water park slide package same thing that Dorney Park has. Water Park expansion for 2015 season. My other guess would be a new thrill ride. Love to see a new max air in front of the park like at Cedar Point 150 feet could put it were chaos use to sit.

April Showers bring May flowers? Gary, is Valleyfair really getting a major attraction for 2016 season? I spoke with GM Dave last week said announcement is coming for the 2015 season and wont say what and not going to say anything for next year either. GM Dave also said Valleyfair is not going to remove any rides or rollercoasters. I could also seem them possibly relocating some rides different areas of the park. I think they should relocate the enterprise and put it over by were the old tilt a whirl by Wild Thing use to sit re paint the enterprise and in the enterprise sport put a 150 foot max air ride at the front of the park and were the old scrambler use to sit put a new Lake Erie Flying Eagles like at Cedar Point perfect spot for it new thrill ride ideas. And get rid of the old toll lane booths and make new toll lane entrances like the ones at Carowinds.

Valleyfairs height restriction is 275 feet. Diamondback has a 230-foot lift hill. Couldn't Valleyfair build another B&M hyper at the max height restriction of 275 feet and have a steeper first degree drop ? Make it higher then Diamondback at Kings Island? I could see them doing that. Have the station start down by the old pinc cove and move the lift hill along the fence line were the Dinosaurs Alive attraction is and the first drop go under the front plaza of Valleyfair like Fury 325 Feel The Sting is doing at Carowinds and make the rest of the track go by Steel Venom and have the turn around over by Steel Venom by the highway gates.

I saw GM Dave Frazier this morning chatted with him. He said there is an announcement coming sometime after Labor Day for the 2015 season I asked but he smiled at me didn't say what just have to wait till then.
