RenegadeFan Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Ok, this is at it's end of Year Two at the Atari Forums, but instead of leaving you guys in the dust, I'll just start over... A new amusement park is opening just off Exit 73 on Interstate 24. The park is named "Evergreen Lake Amusement Park," and has three roller coasters and six other rides. Park developer Mark Geof says they expect a good sized crowd to be going to the park. It costs $30 to enter the park and includes unlimited rides on everything except the go karts. I went out to park today and had an awesome time. It's a really nice small park. Enough with the talking, here's the photos: I got to the park around 10:00 AM. We were going to get there at 9:00, but there was construction on the road to the park. Here's the huge main courtyard past the gates. You can see the park's GCI woodie straight ahead. This place didn't have a name, but it did have some good hot dogs! What amusement park wouldn't be complete without a scrambler? Lil' Lightwave is the park's only kiddie coaster. It's a hit with people who like the milder rides. Then it was time to ride the park's Arrow Looper, Lightwave. Lightwave is a pretty small with only one loop and two corkscrews. The corkscrews are the best part of the ride in my opinion. Here are the last two rides on this side of the park, the ferris wheel and Chance Trabant. We’ll first start off on the other side of the park at the Chance Chaos ride. Down the pathway from Chaos is the park’s only gift shop. Next to the gift shop is Xtreme Karts, the park’s Go Kart track. Across from Xtreme Karts is Raging Ranger, a GCI wooden coaster similar to Renegade and Thunderhead. I have a bad feeling about this station. I don't know why, but I do. You can’t see much of the ride’s layout from the ground, so I took this from the top of the lift. And the oddest thing to find today: a construction site! Very odd since the park just opened. Coming around on Raging Ranger I snapped this shot. B&M track! This park has got some cash. The park also gave me these two pics. The first one a side view of the park, and the other a view from above. Thanks for reading! More updates coming soon!
DBru Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Looking great so far! BUT...I really don't want you to add that B&M yet...too many coasters for such a small park... Keep up the great work!

upside down Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 ya, maybe a vekoma boomerrang would suit this park a bit better at this time.
RenegadeFan Posted June 16, 2008 Author Posted June 16, 2008 ^ & ^^ Too late. If you notice in the first post that is says it's just ended it's second season. That is over at the Atari Forums. Maybe later in Year Four beyond (I've already started year three). Update Went back to the park today and here's a little update: Something is different about this view... I was right! Apparently, termites loved Raging Ranger's station, so they had to tear it down and start over with a new one. As you can see, the new one will have a metal roof. Over at the construction site, not that much has been done. Looks like they just started on the station. They've completed putting down the borders around the paths all around the park now. A planter with some rocks and trees has appeared suddenly near Raging Ranger. Forgot to take pictures of Seastar and Evergreen Wheel last time. Well, that concludes this update. I heard that the new coaster should go vertical soon. Hope that's the case!
