One of the greatest things that has happened to the amusement park
industry in the last few years is the addition of Christmas themed
events to parks across the continent.
There are so many reasons why events like WinterFest are so great.
First off there is something magical with seeing a park all decked and
lit up for the season.
It is a great way to get together with those that you love and get in
the holiday mood. It makes getting a season pass more valuable as
the park is open two months longer. Finally to me the biggest
reason holiday events at parks is the best idea in ages (since they
added Halloween events) is that it makes it so a Midwesterner like
myself doesn't have to travel to Florida to ride coasters in December!
This is the second year that Worlds of Fun has had Winterfest and it was
my first visit so I was excited to see how Worlds of Fun did a Christmas
event. It was nice having a full manger of animals for everyone to
pet. The goats were more excited than the little kids as they
jockeyed for treats from everyone.
