Tuesday  - July 24th, 2012


Great Adventure introduced the fourth of its five new attractions for 2012 today - the impressive new King Cobra water slide at Hurricane Harbor.  Sure to be a crowd pleaser, the new attraction is situated in a portion of the former volleyball and special event beach sand lot. 

Meanwhile, construction is in full swing over at the Theme Park of Fender Benders bumper cars which have just arrived from their trans-Atlantic journey.  All the colorful parts seem to be on site including 25 new cars and an impressive amount of miniature lights that will surely add to the beauty of the Adventure Alley section of the park surrounding the Big Wheel.
