89James89 Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Hawthorn Amusement Park Hello and welcome to the park blog for Hawthorn Amusement Park. This newly established park is being built by successful business man and Entrepreneur Joe Hendly. Now Joe already owns a large manufacturing company with factories located in England and the south of France but the company is beginning to drop in profits and so Joe is looking to diversify. This is where the amusement park comes in. Now Joe had always been interested in theme parks and fair grounds and so was already looking into this avenue when a farmer living near Joe’s factory here in England informed him that he wished to sell some of his land off cheap as it wasn’t very good for farming and he didn’t need it. Joe jumped at the chance and bought the land there and then and started major plans for his new aqqusition. First and foremost was the employment of a small body of staff and building contractors and that is where I Keiren Pelling come in. Hired as a PR Manager I am able to get hold of some photos of what state the construction is in now and this is the first set. Unfortunately I am not allowed to let you know what rides and buildings are planned for the park yet so you’ll have to guess from the pictures until I am allowed to disclose that information. So please enjoy these and I hope to keep you all updated as the park develops. This shows a aerial view of the plot of land that the farmer had shown Joe when he was looking into purchasing the land. This shows the security gates as I went to view the construction for the first time. This shows the main construction area where hopefully the park entrance will be. This was taken form the top of the crane and shows a aerial view of the previous shot. Lots of busy workers down there. This shows a mysterious development that I’m not allowed to say anything on so I’m going to shut up now. So that’s all for now. Hope they’ve wetted your appetite for more. Please feel free to leave comments. Till nest time Keiren Pelling (OOC: Well this is my new park and yes it’s no CS like most of my other projects. It will probably seem pretty similar to my last park to begin with but I plan on taking this one in a different direction hopefully. So there we go C&C is welcome. Cheers 89James89)
Steffen_Dk Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Not much to comment on yet, but I have to say: SUPER nice landscaping!
89James89 Posted January 13, 2009 Author Posted January 13, 2009 Replies: Steffen_DK: Thanks and I'm glad you liek the landscaping it took several days on and off lol. AlmereStars: Thanks! Well I’m back again from my second trip to the park. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to get out to the park as much as I would have liked thanks to my workload but that’ll hopefully change when the park is up and running. What I am glad to say however is that we are steaming ahead with the construction and as these photos show work is progressing very nicely. Also I seemed to have overlooked telling you exactly where the park is located. It’s between Exeter and Bristol here in the South West of England several miles off the M5 so traffic and attendance should be buoyed by that small fact. Anyway onto the photos. The view from what now is the parking area. A lot has changed since last time as you can see including several rides being installed. Taken from inside the park this shows the rides more clearly. Still there’s quite a bit of construction work to go. Remember that mystery ride last time which we caught a glimpse of well here’s another glimpse of it. I’m still not allowed to tell you what it is yet but it shouldn’t be too hard to guess now. Taken from the top of the catwalk of the aforementioned ride gives us a aerial view of the park’s progress. Now as you can see progress is coming along nicely. I apologise for the weather but as I said it was the only time I could get down there so it’ll have to do. Hope you like the progress. Till next time. Keiren Pelleng (OOC: There ay go hope you like the newest construction. I would have done more stages to it but I can see that getting a bit tiresome so settled for two construction tours instead. Cheers 89James89)
