^ That's exactly right.

 

After we show the video at Eastcoaster, we'll share with everyone else.

 

Anyone here active on Google+? I was thinking of trying a Google Video Hangout for this ...

I'm planning my first trip out to Holiday World this year and was thinking HoliWood Nights would be a great time to come. Does that event get pretty crowded? Does it ever sell out?

Sure, why don't you guys one? SFNE has done 4 of them and are quite fun. I can't wait to see how you guys do it.

[mikejenkins1]

Well I see a full train just outside the maintenance building on the track......

Maybe doing some testing with the trains today somehow...

[Diamondbacker27]

What's the lowest temp. they can test in?

An audition for American Idol

 

Source

 

Four years ago, a young man from Richmond, Virginia, auditioned to be in our musical shows.

 

Rayvon Owen was invited to join us for the 2011 season, and we’re so glad he did.

 

My middle son, John, worked tech for the shows that season. He remembers Rayvon as a really nice guy, with a voice “as smooth as butter.”

 

Fast-forward four years and Rayvon has another audition.

 

Tomorrow night.

 

In San Francisco.

 

For American Idol.

 

You be the judge:

We wish Rayvon the very best tomorrow evening. We plan to cheer him on and remember fondly his summer with us, as a “smooth as butter” vocalist in our Rejoice! and Legacy shows.

 

And when are our auditions for this season? They’re coming up on March 1. Check out our Holiday World Audition Information here on our website.

Haha that's a nice touch! I it'll probably freak out those who see it.

I'm sure there are some pictures of Falken around here somewhere. I think Tremors up at Silverwood might have them as well.

Doesn't Alpengeist have something like it, but with feet?

[KingRCT3]

Fluch Von Novgrod has such marks as well.

 

But - is that me or a piece of wood is floating in mid-air? The one in-bewteen the two hands.

[viking86]

That is nice touch, very funny! Yes, it has been done before, but nothing wrong with more parks doing it.

You can see a vertical board behind the horizontal boards which is holding it together.

[Diamondbacker27]

I have no idea what you guys are talking about, I can't see the image.

[Midgetman82]

I love the play of hands cutting clean through the wood. Someone was obviously too confident in those hand-choppers!

Not frequently active, but I drop on it now and then. Just say the word, I definitely have mine ready!

Uh yeah, of course. I saw that in a wrong way. Thanks for the insight.

[DoinItForTheFame]

LOVE the hand cut outs! That is to awesome! Glad to see Holiday World putting so much into this coaster! It's little details like this that are really going to set it apart for years to come.

[kyleparks77]

The station is looking great

[Nwstone]

Man, this things coming along, I can't believe testing starts this coming month.

[Vonni]

I love the station!!!
