GrabowskiEnterprises Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 The new park is an safari/amusmement park. It is around 1985, and it is being built on the outskirts of Fort Wayne, IN.

djbrcace1234 Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Good start so far! My only criticism has to be lack of buildings in the front. But that's just me, but I do like what you have going here. It's a great start! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mightbeawannabe Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 A European Village LEADING to Africa? Do you mean an encampment/colony IN Africa settled by Europeans? If so, I don't think there would be a fountain wasting precious water out there. It would probably look more rugged, with touches of the nation's culture there as well (French, British, Portuguese, etc.). Anyway, it looks good, even though little has been done. Maybe you could give an update once a week to showcase a multitude of additions all at once instead of only a few in a hour or so. My 2 cents.

GrabowskiEnterprises Posted June 17, 2010 Author Share Posted June 17, 2010 Ok it's about 1990, the coaster Mystic Flight is a B&M prototype for an inverted coaster, I don't get the connrction though. Shot0074.bmp They have broke ground for something Shot0075.bmp It looks like a building Shot0077.bmp I come back about a month later and a hotle is there, i wonder what makes this plave so speacial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightbeawannabe Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Are these pictures .bmp? They take forever to load (am I alone?). .jpg files take much less time to load for me. Anyways, it looks good! The hotel seems a bit 'off' to me. Not sure why though. Some things don't add up. B&M was founded in 1989 I believe, and that doesn't leave them much time at all to complete the designs for a working prototype, much less fabricate the pieces for it. They started with Intamin trains Intamin designed track, so it wouldn't take them long to launch Iron Wolf and the Vortexes. Desining their own trains, track and means of supports would take a few years (say by 1991) and then a year to fabricate and open it (1992). I guess it'd be safe to say it was an Intamin prototype though. It's your park though, so I don't really need to care about the small things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrabowskiEnterprises Posted June 17, 2010 Author Share Posted June 17, 2010 Not to get technical, but B&M started in 1988. And while working for Intiman they came up with a inverted prototype that was considered impossible then 7 years later they made it work. So it is kinda possible to have a flying prototype coaster. Also since it is a prototype don't expect it to stay at the park very long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightbeawannabe Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 It was 1988? I thought that was the year they left Intamin, and then officially founded it in 1989. I am aware of their early attempts at the inverted but I wasn't thinking when I wrote. You learn something new every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrabowskiEnterprises Posted June 17, 2010 Author Share Posted June 17, 2010 1991 Update: The park opens next year. Progress is bing made every day. The main parts of the parka are finished, but some landscaaping is still needed. The last thing that will be added before opening is the waterpark, Splashin Safari. Ironiclly another Indiana park uses this name for their waterpark in 1998. Some new things have been added including 2 coasters, Savannah Flyer and Rhino.

GrabowskiEnterprises Posted June 17, 2010 Author Share Posted June 17, 2010 1992 Update: It's March and we had a small opening of the park for the mayor and his family. Also we allowed about 40 more people in from a contest we had. The feedback was that our park was very fun. So we came to a decision, Adventure Safari is now considered a part of Fort Wayne. The mayor and I had a talk about the future of the park. He and I are planning to use this park as a starting point to a citywide revitalization.

GrabowskiEnterprises Posted June 19, 2010 Author Share Posted June 19, 2010 Ok i know there is deffinately no triple posting but some very important things have happened. 1993 Update Breaking News: This is Channel 21 news with the latest news of the day. Earlier today the Owner of Adventure Safari, Brian Grabowski, signed a deal with Time Warner Parks to co-own the park. Grabowski stated the following in a press conference, "The future of this park remains solely with the amount of revenue we can bring in and we did not meet the amount we needed, so in order to keep the park running we must have an outside income". The representative of Time Warner stated, "The family owned identidy of this park will be retained, however new additions and themes will be brought into the park and coexisit in a appropiate way." The final deal will be signed in March, a month before the park opens. Grabowski told us, "to not expect any changes this year, but next year expect at least the iconic Looney Tunes characters incorporated into the park".
