XShortestStrawX Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 I just find it amusing that under the "What's New" tab on the Michigan's Adventure website there is nothing. A blank page. Whoever the web designer was had it easy the day he made that page. Liar, they have new dining plans...
codeGR Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 In maverick_cp's defense, this is the page they were referring to: https://www.miadventure.com/what-s-new
DILinator Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 Honestly, I'm surprised that page hasn't sprouted literal cobwebs and dust over the years of disuse!
XShortestStrawX Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 Just saw this on Facebook and had a good laugh
TunaSled Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 Oh. My. Goodness. We ar going to Carowinds in August. Guess I should just stay home?
DILinator Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 That's pretty funny! Having just been to Carowinds for the first time, I must disagree! However, I was disapointed with Carowinds compared to my expectations, and I haven't been to MiA in a few years, so maybe after I go in a couple of weeks, I'll feel differently... Probably not, however!
codeGR Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 I also went to Carowinds for the first time back in June. I was impressed. It's quite clear that CF has invested a lot of money into the place. Harmony Hall is a great place.
grsupercity Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 I went back to Carowinds for the first time in years in June. It was a nice park but kind of a let down. I think the 100 degrees and 100% humidity might have played a role
codeGR Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 ^ Likely. I went first week of June. A tad chilly and drizzly. No crowds. Definitely would go back same time next year.
grsupercity Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 I went June 29th and it was HOT. They had a decent coaster collection, but I found the flats to be a let down
MiABeta Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 Heading to MiA today, would anyone like any pictures of anything, or updates on really anything in the park? I need my Shivering Timbers fixation after riding Mean Streak earlier in the season.
DILinator Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 I'm mainly curious what the Tuesday crowd is like, since I'll be going there two weeks from today!

I need my Shivering Timbers fixation after riding Mean Streak earlier in the season. Anything and everything!!!! If you see any flags or markers, or bull dozers or track
TunaSled Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 would anyone like any pictures of anything, or updates on really anything in the park? The Dippin' Dots stand
MiABeta Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 ^^Which ones? I'm mainly curious what the Tuesday crowd is like, since I'll be going there two weeks from today! Haven't been there on Tuesday in a while, I shall see soon! Anything and everything!!!! If you see any flags or markers, or bull dozers or track On it!
MIAfan88 Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 Could you take a picture of the new employee building behind the water park?
linearinduction Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 I would request a photo of the Builder's Plate on the C.P. Huntington Locomotive, as I'd love to have the Serial Number and Date of Manufacture.
MiABeta Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 I'm mainly curious what the Tuesday crowd is like, since I'll be going there two weeks from today! Yesterday's crowd wasn't horrible especially since it was very hot. By 2:00 there was no-to-very short lines every in the park, the water park was fairly crowded though. Still nothing like a Friday or Weekend. Filled up a little less than half of the main Parking Lot. I would request a photo of the Builder's Plate on the C.P. Huntington Locomotive, as I'd love to have the Serial Number and Date of Manufacture. I didn't quite get that one.Could you take a picture of the new employee building behind the water park? Sadly I forgot my DSLR and I didn't manage to get a picture of the whole building, I do however have a picture of people working on it, in a poor digitally zoomed in quality. Between the water tower and the wave pool building, I see workers! Anything and everything!!!! If you see any flags or markers, or bull dozers or track No flags (as far as I could see) the back area really is densely wooded and I could see some groomed land behind, that was all I could make out. Also somone in my group said the farm is a pumpkin farm. Halloween event? I did some construction equipment in the employee parking lot but I believe they are owned by the park.

Between the water tower and the wave pool building, I see workers! You can't hide the beast inside. Such a pretty lift hill! We are on a log flume! Arrow coaster. Oh no the head banging of it all! Nothing here, this says nothing about the back nine though. Pretty good day to go! Lots of sun. More wolverine! SLC in all of it's greatness, it really isn't that bad of a SLC. Water roulette "Two parks for the price of one" Arcade building? Or future dark ride/restaurant? Retracked helix! Up charge, as always. SLC next to a Dinn Woodie. Nice placement. Wolverine row 8 FTW. For all you flat ride fans, this one still has a hitch! Retracked helix plus pretty life hill (Row 3 rides on up stop wheels up it) Now hiring: conveyer belt! Splash! Mad Mouse was closed when we first got there, they were testing it when I took this. RIP Falling Star. Dinn vs CCI, who wins? I think these are owned by the park.
grsupercity Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Very Nice pictures. The new employee center looks complete. The land around it is a mess though. I couldnt get a pic as I drove by though because I was driving.
XShortestStrawX Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Great pics! I'll be heading back in a few weeks. Hopefully there will be news of something by then.
coasterkid124 Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Nice report. I never realized how beautiful of a park MiA is. Too bad it hasn't been as loved as other parks in the CF chain.

Still nothing like a Friday or Weekend. Filled up a little less than half of the main Parking Lot. Thanks for the feedback! I like the sound of that crowd-size! Hopefully it's similar (or even less) when I go. Maybe there will even be a slight threat of rain (that never materializes) to scare some people away!
codeGR Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 I'm still really interested in this pumpkin patch near Timbertown Railway.
MiABeta Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 I'm still really interested in this pumpkin patch near Timbertown Railway. Why would they have pumpkins and no Halloween event, or place for pumpkins... Maybe a Halloween event finally? Or for the other parks in the chain? Haha who knows at this point.
