GAcoaster Posted December 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 Our final wish for the 2016 Great ADVENTure calendar is that the park adds a plaque or other tribute to Great Adventure's founder, Warner LeRoy. While the park has gone far off course from his initial vision in some ways, the heart of the park still bears many of his signature ideas and his vision. It doesn't have to be elaborate, but there should at least be a plaque or something to commemorate him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericthewanderer Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 Maybe they could build a bronze statue of Warner LeRoy and put it somewhere between the sky ride and Giant Wheel since they are 2 of the remaining main attractions built during Warner's control of the park.

GAcoaster Posted December 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 Just a simple plaque would do, and I'd either like to see it next to Yum Yum, in front of the Fort, or next to the Big Wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pineracer Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 What about it inside the fountain, like Six Flags America's main st.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Six Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 Maybe in the fort in the middle where you can either choose Sky Ride or Minetrain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted December 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 Something like this: I thin the best spot would be on the wall around the lake in front of the Fort. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 What about the flower garden at the entrance. Someplace people can see as the enter the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericthewanderer Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Whatever is done-plaque or statue-it should go near the fountain and be dedicated on July 4 2019(Great Adv.'s 45 anniversary). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29yrswithaGApass Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 I think it should go near the Four Tents, at the site of the original park entrance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 That would be nice, but SF has never liked nostalgia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted December 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 They're starting to embrace it as they realize their fans are. Look at the retro shirts and other merchandise they're selling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlumeOp1974 Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 I think it should go near the Four Tents, at the site of the original park entrance.
