My first coaster this year was Lightning Run, at Kentucky Kingdom. My last coaster for the season was The Raven, at Holiday World Oct.11th. My first Coaster for 2015 will be Thunderbird, for season pass holders day, Friday April 24th.

They are inviting Season Pass holders that Friday before the Park opens, I'll be there.

^ I could see them adding another " Log Ride" type of ride. They most likely have something in the plans for that area since they didn't destroy it. I don't see using it as a Fountain. Maybe Intamin and Holiday World are working on something else to replace " Giraffica". I think some type of water ride will replace it.

I think they have plans for the old " Pilgrams Plunge/Giraffica" spot. I noticed they had new piping around the site Saturday, plus they haven't tore it up. Could we see a new Log Ride in 2016 to replace " Frightful Falls". Something to think about for 2016.

Thunderbird, April 24th for Season Pass holders.

How I would love to touch B&M track! I'm probably sounding ridiculous right now...... No more than me being excited to touch it, LOL

I don't get it, there is only a certain set of tubes for each slide. They only use 2 different tubes, singles and doubles. Unless they carried a tube from another slide, they shouldn't have received the wrong tube. Sounds like someone is just wanting some money, I'm sure this will be dismissed.

Went to the park Saturday, had a blast. Happy Halloween Weekends is a Family Event, but there is still plenty of Thrills. Thunderbird towers over the Thanksgiving Area. Holiday World does a great job with their Halloween event. The Laser show at the end was great, the Dancers from " Graveyard Smash" was out walking around the audience during the show then did the " Thriller" dance at the end. Took a few pictures, not enough for a full Photo report, so I'll post them on here. The new attraction this year was, Carnival Chaos, it was pretty fun, had a Mirror Maze at the end. The " Revolution" became " Resurrection". Several of the rides had different names, for Happy Halloween Weekends. The New view in Thanksgiving. Sign describing Thunderbird The new walkway to Thunderbird, to the left. Thunderbird looks so huge up on the hill. Can't wait til next year, got my Season Pass when I was there Saturday. Supports and Track are everywhere. Thunderbird pieces Reach over and touched this piece. Had all these painted Hay Bales along the Hayride to the Corn Mazes. This ends my report, hope everyone has a Happy Halloween, mine was. When you get your 2015 Season Pass processed this year you get this cool Thunderbird Cup. Also bought me a shot glass, I collect shot glasses.

Just got home from Holiday World, Thunderbird looks great up on the hill. Will post some Pics tomorrow, when I get them uploaded.

BIG RED

Thought I would post my Tats on here also. All of my Tats are over 10 years old except my Barbwire around my Ankle, I got it about 3 years ago. The Pink Tribal Triangle was my first. The Barbwire around my Ankle was my 8th and last, so far. My Lion Face was my 3rd This was my 7th Tat. These are the Tiger Eyes, from Kingda Ka, I love Tigers This is my Bull blowing smoke, he was my 4th. I wanted him down lower, so it had a " Ring" through it's nose. But they said the nipple wouldn't hold the ink, so I had it moved up. Bam Bam was my 5th Tat Tigger, although he has faded, was my 6th. The Tribal Triangle was my 2nd, got it the same time as my first.

Was planning on going Saturday, but the weather isn't looking good, may wait til the following Saturday.

^ They already sand blasted it and are about done painting it.

Glad they're going back to it's original color, always stood out.

^ Yes, it it one that will do a full 360 degree loop. Skycatcher is most likely where it is because that is one of the few areas in the park they can build over 100 feet.

^ That is the new queue for the slide complex.

I don't see a map

I'm sure the Zepplins old spot will not be used til 2016 when Twisted Twins reopens. They will most likely use Dragsters old spot for Cyclos and put the SkyCatcher in the spot by Bounty, where the old Picnic/Haunted House used to be.

Going on Oct.11th with the Family. Buying my season pass on the easy pay plan, asked if we could get it processed that day, they wrote back and said yes. They also said we will get a ticket for free admission that day and a Thunderbird Cup, can't wait. I'll post a Photo Trip report of my day and the construction when I get home, come on Oct. 11th.

Great Photos, Thanks for sharing, can't wait for more.

It's 200 feet on the side by Lighting Run and 150 feet by Thunder Run/ Twisted Twins side.

^ They have Bins at both coasters to place your things in.

^ Looks like one of those Rocket Ship Kiddie Rides, like Holiday World has.

I assume the fourth one will be the enterprise. The fifth and sixth attractions are still up in the air - it could be anything from two new flat rides to a new movie in the 5D Theater and something else. Forgot about the Enterprise, guess that will be the fourth.

They are selling their 2015 Season Passes for $ 59.00 until the end of September and it states they will have 6 new attractions next year. We already know of 3 things for next year T3, Raging Rapids and the Amphitheater, wonder what the other 3 will be? They said the Sea Lions will be back for next year.
