Cedar Point has set up several Web Cams over the year and one of them looms high above the rest of the park. When the fog rolled in one morning, it set a beautiful picture of Cedar Point. Covering the lower portion of the park, it makes the park seems like it is literally jumping out of the clouds. It almost looks like roller coaster heaven.
Mantis, Tower of Power, Wicked Twister, and a few other coasters can be seen jumping from the clouds. What a spectacular sight. The park’s Ohio location is one of the best for any theme park. Cedar Point is nestled on a strip of land extending out from the coastline into one of the Great Lakes. It provides for spectacular views on some of taller attractions and I can only imagine how it would feel to ride Millenium Force or Top Thrill Dragster in this fog.

Rock Band Live will hit Cedar Fair parks across the country this season. The concert style event will take place in various theaters in nearly ever park owned by the company. The show will feature elaborate costume designs, several live singers, and actors who will sing karaoke style to some of the best Rock Band tunes in this 30 minute show. The main band will feature several members each with their very own and distinct personalities. Some of these personalities include the “Mom” character, a groupie, a leader singer, guitarist, so on and so forth.
Audience members will be selected prior to the show and will go on stage for one final rock out before the ending of the concert extravaganza. Funland Blog has some really interesting concept renderings of the outfits that will be worn by the performers during the show. Be sure to check it out here.
To me, this certainly sounds like a nice little addition that may gain quite the audience. Rock Band is a familiar item and using it to market a new show sounds great. Certainly, I do not expect this entertainment offering to be a showstopper, but I do find it to be a step up from the Dance Dance Revolution and Karaoke “shows” (I use that term loosely) that most Cedar Fair and Six Flags theme parks currently offer.

California’s Great America continues to transform Nickelodeon Centeral into the new for 2010, Camp Snoopy area. The park’s Facebook page has a batch of new photos that show off the construction under way to turn a modern Nick themed area into a nostalgic Planet Snoopy. With painting, resurfacing, and much more construction happening during the off season, the park is in a rush to finish Planet Snoopy in time for opening day.
The Planet Snoopy transformation is quite a large job to accomplish. Nearly all the children’s attractions in the parks need to be renamed, rethemed, reimagined for the transformation to be successful. Some of these transformations include Spongebob’s Boat Mobiles to Peanut’s Pirates, Wild Thornberry’s Tree Top Lookout to The Great Pumpkin Patch, Rugrat’s Reptar Runaway to Woodstock Express and Nickelodeon Theater to Peanut’s Playhouse.
Be sure to come back in just a few weeks for opening day coverage of the park full of pictures of Planet Snoopy. Leave a comment with your Park Thoughts below.
