Alpine Bobsled had its last runs ever at Six Flags Great Escape this past Monday. Like always Bobsled was Bobsled but the parks staff was determined to get it up for those who wanted one more ride. They did get it running and once it was up they kept it running straight through park closing until the line cleared. The final run was well after park closing. Once the line cleared TGE's Park President shut Bobsled down for the last time and then the park invited a few of us to walk the lift hill for some sunset views one last time. As a send off it gave some great rides its final day. Here's a few pics of Sarajevo / Alpine Bobsled its final operating day at TGE!

I’m wondering if there could be a second round of announcements. Nothing really waterpark based announced besides what was supposed to be for this year. SFNE feels almost forgotten lately but a waterpark addition would be welcomed.

I plan to be at TGE Labor Day. Hope to get a final day ride if it opens.

Didn’t they tease for looping dragon though too? Until we see a large scale investment from the current leadership I’m skeptical but definitely hoping something good is in the works.

Sorry can’t change a websites url for every article lol. I have heard great things about the BIG E. Need to still get to that one. https://www.thebige.com

This one is at Great Adventure not SFNE.

This past weekend I had the opportunity to try out the Flavors Of The World Food Festival. Overall I thought the food was some of the best that I've had at a SF's park. Due to the weather it was dead overall but it made for a great day for my Pops and I as we got to enjoy the day and I got on a ton of rides too. 5 laps on Toro without leaving the station which was awesome. I put together a blog post about the festival which features the stands, menus and some close ups of what we tried if anyone would like to check it out. https://www.sfneonline.org/2023/06/28/enjoying-flavors-of-the-world-six-flags-great-adventure/ Has anyone else attended yet? If you have what are your thoughts about the festival overall?

Pretty sure it depends on the time of year for some of it.

Sesame Place Philadelphia already has something else in the works for 2024. Not that it couldn’t happen.

How much longer until we see a new CEO try to fix things is my question? Any chance some of the quality people who were the backbone of the park come back if new leadership does come in?

Thanks! Oscars was closed most of the day so I was super happy to see it open later. It really is a fun coaster. I find the park just to be fun to visit in general.

Over Memorial Day Weekend Sesame Place Philadelphia kicked off their Most Splashtacular Season ever! I had the chance to attend the media day events. It was a great day and I just really love this park. Here’s a full recap and even a little preview of Something BIG that’s coming to the park in the future. https://www.sfneonline.org/2023/06/11/counting-down-to-splashtacular-fun-sesame-place/

Guess we will now see if the park gets any better direction moving forward.

Guess something similar to what SFFT just opened is coming from the looks of that.

That really stinks if true. Some great photos get shared from the Skyride and Big Wheel.
