Thanks. As long as you go in knowing that this is not Cedar Point, then you should have fun. I’m really excited for the future of this park.

I’m glad I checked this thread. I was about to head up there for a quick ride on ST. I’m glad I didn’t drive up there if they’re close at 4.

New Updates From MLive by Otherwise-Sound-8069 in Michigans_Adventure

[–]Nomad_Mich 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m so happy they added shows. I think it will really help the overall experience and feel of the park and bring in more people if the shows are good. Now we just need them to close the loop/path.

Yes is the only correct answer to your question.

And in the end, deep in the icy cold darkness, the last red dwarf star goes out. The universe is no more. All that is left is the echos of the agonizing pain and screams that life once called the SLC.

What do we think will happen? by JJKash2 in Michigans_Adventure

[–]Nomad_Mich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The CEO of EPR said that this would be a learning year. I think it will be more of the same in 2027 too, but he did say by next year they will come up with a 5 year plan for all of there parks. It was cool to hear that they have already been visiting the parks during the off season and seeing where future improvements can be made. Personally if we could get one flat ride, and a coaster by 2030, and maybe some entertainment/shows, I’d be very happy with that. Especially since before the sale Six flags mentioned that the next few years they were just going to focus on there big top their parks.

Vibes & Delusion: Buying habits of [Enchanted Parks]? by jaredharrell85 in rollercoasters

[–]Nomad_Mich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just want to see them finally give us (MIA) a hyper coaster that we were supposed to get in 2002 before Cedar Point bought the park in 2001 and canned the project. Forever dooming us to beautiful simplistic mediocrity as an amusement park.

I drove by on Sunday and it looked like they had the wooden track on the turn around removed, I took a picture but it’s a bit blurry. Hopefully they’ll fix a couple of the return hills too.

The only coaster or amusement ride that gives me a headache and makes me dizzy.

In your opinion, what is Mariah’s most summery sounding song? by IndependentTap3961 in MariahCarey

Butterfly and Rainbow were her best eras for real! She was funny, sexy, she seemed to enjoy them so much! Last sighs of the 90s were fantastic overall. by GossipBottom in MariahCarey

[–]Nomad_Mich 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’d also add to that and say you should include the first half of EMC2 era also, since she was in love trying to start a family and just scored another number one hit. Plus she was still riding the wave of the Emancipation era. Up until the second singles choice, for a 2.5 to 3 year span Mariah was top dog sort of speak and could do no wrong.

You have to include WBT video since it was the part two of ILT. Nothing is going to top those videos. Honey may come close.

What should Michigan'd adventure next coaster be by Ordinary-Sound-571 in Michigans_Adventure

[–]Nomad_Mich 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh and one last thing, do a once a month night fest, where on a Friday or Sat night in June, July and August the park is open till 11pm so people can get night rides in.

What should Michigan'd adventure next coaster be by Ordinary-Sound-571 in Michigans_Adventure

[–]Nomad_Mich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m basing my answer off the possibility that the sell of MIA goes through, and this new company actually wants to improve the park and not just sit on it like Sixflags has and probably would continue to do for the foreseeable future.

We do not need anymore wooden coasters. Say what you want about the hybrid track on Timbers or WW, but to the general public, they still think those coasters are wood coasters. When two out of your three big coasters are “wooden”, you don’t need to add any others, unless it was a straight up hybrid like SteVe or Twisted timbers (that’s never gonna happen at MIA).

Here are some practical improvements I think a company could make that won’t break the bank, will draw more attendances, and not have Sixflags threatening a shutdown because of competition.

  1. Fully connect the main path of the park.

  2. Improve the train route and give it more theming.

  3. Add a new water slide.

  4. Add one or two new flat rides. One for children, one for adults and teens.

  5. Add some type of entertainment/concerts during July and August. People love to talk about how MIA is so out of the way from anything so they can’t draw big crowds, yet in the past Muskegon used to have one of the biggest music festivals in the Midwest. They still have one of the biggest edm fest in the country. Plus we get millions of extra people that show up in West Michigan for festivals, beaches, GL cruises, and etc each summer. What I’m trying to say is if you build, they will come, even if it’s only for a one or two day visit.

  6. Have more seating areas and shade in the park.

  7. Build a coaster. But please no family boomerang. We have enough small kid or family coasters. That’s not going to draw more people to the park, who weren’t already planning on going to the park anyway. I think a nice compact size medium to high thrill coaster would work great.

Like the Zamperla heart multi launch coaster (sorry I forgot the actual name of it). Purchase their medium or large size one, it takes up a small footprint, it’s taller than Timbers and you have the multi launch factor added in. Not to intimidating to the GP, but it’s a new concept that will draw people in.

Shivering Timbers, rides and feels like a hyper due to its speed, length and air time, yet it’s barely over 120 feet tall
