I don't have the patience to create custom buildings so my food stalls are just "out there" but I'll have to try it sometime. I take it you got inspiration for the entrance from SFGAm with the water in front of the double decker carousel?  That's one of my favorite theme park entrances. _________________ On September 21, 2007, a historic 119-year old amusement park had been secretly murdered.

The railroad was inspired by SFStL's railroad. _________________ 2008 - Mantis Crew 2007 - Rocket Sled Ride ATL 2006 - Dominator Crew

The Chance Columbia Carousel wasn't very popular so the company went to the auction for Geauga Lake's carousel. This Illions masterpiece is now showcased in Carousel Court of "Great Escape: Maryland". The park also picked up several attractions from the now defunct "Glendale Park" from the Defunct CC Corporation. Most notably: "Zephyr" from "Lake Dempsy & Splash River". We will be releasing these attractions soon. Next season will be the parks 70th anniversary. For the 70th season we will be adding a water park, Called "H2Oasis". It will feature various water attractions for the young and young at heart. More about this soon: Removed Attraction - (reasoning) - Whats taking it's place Columbia Carousel (lack of popularity and capital problems) - Grand Carousel Fun House - (lack of popularity) - H2Oasis Greyhound Coaster - (lack of popularity) (SOLD) - H2Oasis Hall of Mirrors - (lack of parts and popularity) - H2Oasis "How the West Was Won" - (Live Entertainment) - Train Station Merrily Oldies - (lack of popularity and on valuable land) - Movie Zone Mini Golf - (Guests weren't enjoying it) - Movie Zone Quick Escape - (lack of popularity - H2Oasis The Whip - (lack of parts and popularity) - H2Oasis Timberwolf Pavillions - (Not enough picnics to support a big pavillion/amphitheater) - Zephyr/Zephyr Grille/Zephyr Gifts edit: Yes! I know I took a screen shot while "Invisible Rides and People" were activated. _________________ 2008 - Mantis Crew 2007 - Rocket Sled Ride ATL 2006 - Dominator Crew

Disaster Mountain (Combo Slides) (Tornado, Hurricane, Typhoon, and Tidal Wave) Thunder Bay (Wave Pool) Bermuda Triangle (speed slides), Patriot Plunge (tube slide), & Tortuga Run (lazy river), Zoom Flume (Family Raft Adventure) Updates: The flats near the "Lakeside Cafe" have been relocated to the length of Zephyr's course. The Bounty was relocated to the area by Wild Mouse, and renamed "Galleon." The "Lakeside Cafe" has been renamed "Pitstop Cafe" to correspond with the Glendale Speedway. The Arrow coaster "Ragin Cajun" has been reprofiled and is still being worked on, as unsatisfactory reports have come from the General Manager and other Full Timers. I've heard rumors that there's a 5 year plan for the park as well. That being: -A Hotel On Property -A Flying Roller Coaster (possibly taking the spot in County Fair where "Ragin Cajun" once stood? -A Kids Club in H2Oasis -Expanded Entertainment Venues/Capital Improvements -The Addition of the acquired attractions. The new addition to the Great Escape: Maryland line up! El Torcido roller coaster. Manufactured by Vekoma. This Inverted boomerang is thrilling audiences all over the region. I'll leave you with this: That's gotta suck! Luckily our ride hosts were attentive and my mechanic was near and witnessed this, and fixed this problem quickly. _________________ 2008 - Mantis Crew 2007 - Rocket Sled Ride ATL 2006 - Dominator Crew
