Holiday World & Splashin' Safari Santa Claus, Indiana
2006 Construction Update
March 11, 2006
Spring showers are here in
Santa Claus, IN. Today has been nothing but rain, rain, rain with
a little thunder and lightening but despite all of that work on Holiday
World's 2006 additions goes on. The Voyage's photo/gift shop now
has siding and I noticed several people working on getting The Voyage's
station ready to go.
This week structure for the
bridge for the walkway down into the Thanksgiving section started to
go up.
There's still work going on
with Gobbler Getaway with a lot of time spent this week finishing off
the first floor. My thought is that it is going to be a metal
building that they can put together in a matter of days like an oversized
Erector set.
To me one of the signs that spring
is finally here and the coaster season is quickly approaching is when
The Raven and Legend trains make their appearance after a long off season
rehab. I can't wait to take The Raven and Legend for a ride but
I really can't wait to see and feel The Voyage in action. Well
we've got just 55 days to go.
Check back next week for a monster
Holiday World 2006 construction update as I'll have up close photos
of The Voyage from the American Coaster Enthusiasts 2006 Off Season
Construction Tour.
