GAcoaster 364 Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 i dont get the 11am openings The 11:00 opening help stretch the labor into the night so they can stay open later. On those fall days it makes sense to open a little later (let things warm up) and then stay open later to accommodate the crowds. Many parks do the same thing for fall/Halloween.

29yrswithaGApass 1,514 Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Great Adventure will be having 4th of July Fireworks on three nights this year - July 4th, 5th, and 6th! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RC98 33 Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Cool! Do you know if there will be any nightly or weekly fireworks displays for the summer season, like was attempted last year? I know I would like to see one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonlee 7 Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 I love the fireworks!!! Saturday night lights was my favorite. Saw it 3 times! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SFGadv123 40 Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Wish they had fireworks more often, cause I won't be able to make it for any of those nights. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jdc12192 182 Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Cool! Do you know if there will be any nightly or weekly fireworks displays for the summer season, like was attempted last year? I know I would like to see one. i doubt it. last year it was just every thursday in july, so only 3 or 4 times. They're doing the same amount just one after another.

29yrswithaGApass 1,514 Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 ^ And this year they are being sponsored by Coke. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yoshi 273 Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Weren't the neighbors part the reason they cut back the fireworks? Dorney was going to have fireworks every day this past summer until the neighbors went to the township board to complain and forced them to change it back to 3 times a year like normal.

The Master 145 Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Long range weather forecasts, if you can trust them, are saying it is going to be a cold March this year. About another 6 weeks of winter for the northeast at least. Even the southeast will have a slow start for spring. May be just as well the park is opening later.

gafreak 23 Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 major blizzard coming in 8-10 days, bring it..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SFGadv123 40 Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Just remember that whatever people are saying, the blizzard is still over a week away. Much can and will change, I think it isn't even going to be that big of a storm, although I am hoping that this does happen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
29yrswithaGApass 1,514 Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 After the Safari Discoveries display area is enclosed with a mesh roof it will become the home to the new baboon exhibit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
htowler 0 Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Thanks for posting the calendar. I'm glad to see only the first week in June has 6:00 closings and then moves to 8:00 closings the next week since schools are still in session and later in the day when school groups leave, from 5 - 8 on those days it should be some opportunity to get a lot of rides in with no waiting. Thats the week I visit NJ and GA just cause of that open till 8 and no crowds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RC98 33 Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 ^^ Cool, that will add another new unique animal feature to our park and I'm sure the mesh roof covering will be great on hot days! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
29yrswithaGApass 1,514 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 10 weeks until Great Adventure opens! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RC98 33 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 It's a nice thought in the middle of winter, just 10 weeks from now I will be able to ride coasters, and more importantly, the temps will be warmer! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gafreak 23 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 36 days till we spring Ahead, 10 weeks till coasters, i have 2 seasons, great adventure marks summer, and great adventure closing marks winter! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
29yrswithaGApass 1,514 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Given the option, which would you rather do today - watch the Super Bowl or be able to ride the Great American Scream Machine one more time? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chiller 5 Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 ^ From the picture, it looks like you can do both! I would rather ride Scream Machine a couple hundred more times, it was one of the best of its type. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Master 145 Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Scream Machine, I find football boring. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yoshi 273 Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 I'd pick Scream Machine over any sporting event except if the Phillies were in the World Series. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gasmspiritblue 8 Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) Id take scream machine over pretty much anything hahahaha Edited February 14, 2014 by gasmspiritblue Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RC98 33 Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I never got to ride Scream Machine so I would pick it any day! Especially since the Super Bowl turned out to be a terrible game this year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mrpq 36 Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 not sure this needed its own thread and honestly not sure if it goes here but what the hell. I havent seen this posted up yet.
