VF15 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Just curious, on my first day at Cedar Point (most likely Tuesday, June 9th, but not set in stone), I probably won't be arriving at the park until midday (anytime between noon and 3 pm). In what order should I ride the coasters to keep wait times at a minimum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GwaziBSRider1 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 ^ Lines shouldn't be that bad on that day, although there may be a few groups running around. You should be able to ride at your leisure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In what order should I ride the coasters to keep wait times at a minimum? I'll be there the same day, but I won't be able to get there until 7ish. I plan on trying to hit the big 3 Intamins in a row.

TopThrill182 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I'm not familiar with typical construction schedules, but shouldn't the Breakers project have been finished before now? It looks like there are a lot of finishing touches to be done before guests check-in this weekend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPFan1234 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 This point cast was probably recorded sometime last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagnumFreak25 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Even then it didn't look like to much. Most of it was just finishing up paint and very small finishes. Outside might be a little ugly though, seems like landscaping wasn't done yet, but grass takes time so not all their fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaMarkSta Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Cedar Fair always works like magic to finish up their finishing touches days before the park is open to the public. I wouldn't be surprised if they are working late into the night thursday before the hotel opens for Friday night stays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinU Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I'm crazy excited. I will be at the first rider auction and preview night event! It looks like its going to be a great night! It is unfortunate they will not have Maverick open that evening, but should be some great pictures of Rougarou and it's lighting effects. Anyone else attending Friday night?

Philrad71 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 ^Hopefully they will keep them clean and monitor the chlorine content and acid levels better than the one in Soak City. Not to be a Debbie Downer, but I got hot tub folliculitis in the one at Soak City two years ago. That was the only hot tub I was in before I developed itchy bumps on my arms, chest and stomach and got the doctors prognosis three days later. Love the swim-up bar & waterslides at SC, but I will be skipping the public hot tubs from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPFan1234 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 So what's the swim up bar like in Soak City? Are the drinks expensive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Wolf 90-11 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Who's all going to opening weekend? If anybody is going to be staying at Breakers, tell us how it is. I think we all want to know how the renovation went, it looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaMarkSta Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I'll be staying at the Breakers this weekend. I'll make sure to post some pictures here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cj1990 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 So according to The Weather Channel, there is an 80% Chance of Thunderstorms for Saturday the 9th. I'm trying to look on the Park's page as well for weather info to see what their radar system is giving them. What are the thoughts? Worth the trip? Or stay home? There's a group of 6 of us that have plans to go, but of the weather is going to be bad and rides closed, we don't want to waste our time. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I'd say it's worth the gamble, my guess it that it's going to be sunny most of the day with occasional storms. Thunderstorms don't usually stick around for very long. Then again nobody has any idea what the weather is going to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firewalk13 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Who's all going to opening weekend? I'll be there at 9am Saturday. Cannot wait... There may be some rain but I'm still gonna have a blast no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPFan1234 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Hotel Breakers is looking great! Love the beach and umbrellas. Maybe they are finally getting rid of that silly rope they have in the lake that doesn't let you go farther than 10 feet! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks When I visited in September from Texas I was concerned about weather also. It ended up hitting Sandusky, but not the Peninsula which a worker in HR told me is a frequent occurrence. The most that happened was some light rain and the rides kept on going...MF in the rain hurt a tad...but I didn't care! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philrad71 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 So what's the swim up bar like in Soak City? Are the drinks expensive? The swim-up bar is awesome, but not cheap. Expect to pay about $7-8 for a beer and $8-12 for mixed drinks. My recommendation would be to try their special (can't remember the name, but just ask)...it's a blend of about five different kinds of booze with a splash of fruit juice for about $10-12. Believe me, you'll only need one or two to catch a nice buzz! Oh...and bring your ID because you won't get in without one, no matter what your age. 21 and over only - no kids allowed.
