The $4 million in ride repairs seems very low. The $15 million in new rides seems impossibly low, especially if that is supposed to cover both the new rides and the new waterpark.

None of the financial numbers being tossed around, according to the proposal, are for the waterpark. That would be a later phase, with funding to be determined later. All of this money is just for the theme park and the backlot.

Further, the proposal calls for only saving/repairing three rides. The new rides they are planning to buy do not appear to be anything terribly fancy or expensive.

I think this is meant to be a park that gives people something to do, has shows and music, and has rides. As opposed to a thrill-type park.

I also question whether enough money is budgeted. I am sure those numbers will go up.

I went to Cedar Point in Ohio this summer, what would I do for a park like that around here. Granted, CP is known as one of the top coaster parks in the world with 2 of the top 10 fastest (or highest? I dont remember) coasters in the world!

Same, but I think if it gets approved/when the proposal gets more publicity, there will be other investors interested.

If it's successful, the rides will come later.
