So how was Timber Wolf running?
Just take a look at Worlds of Fun super-fan Danielle in the second row.
As you can see she was VERY pleased. The only bad thing was Timber
Wolf was only running one train but that was due to the aforementioned
stripping of the budget from Six Flags before the sale to EPR/Enchanted
Parks. Just to be honest things were a bit rough operationally at
Worlds of Fun just like Six Flags St. Louis but that was all due to
being banned from pretty much purchasing parts until three weeks before
opening to the public. Maintenance takes time and thankfully
Worlds of Fun is no longer a forgotten park in a giant chain like it was
under Cedar Fair and Six Flags. Rough starts like this are going
to be a thing of the past under Enchanted Parks.
Giving everyone at ACE Around the World a little "inside baseball" was
Worlds of Fun's Park President Damien Nelson. He took questions
from attendees for quite a while. Lots was discussed including the
fact that they are working on a five year plan for the park his desire
to add a dark ride to World's of Fun. If it were up to me I'd go
with an "Around the World in Eighty Days" themed ride as that story is
what Worlds of Fun is themed around.
A popular part of ACE Around the World is our annual auction for various
goodies from the park.
