Construction/Rumors / Re: Project 2026 Tracker

Quote from: cowboy on March 29, 2025, 08:19:46 PMSwoosh, why so many trees cleared out from around Outlaw run? Is this project that massive or that part of a different maintenance project?

I just saw those photos and that makes me sad. I really hope between that and project 2026 that half of the park doesn't lose the feeling of being "tucked away in the Ozark Mountains".

Quote from: Jesus4me on March 30, 2025, 07:50:11 PMThe Plaza does not make me want buy a ticket to Sivler Dollar City. It is actually a joke.
Then don't I guess? I'm really not sure what you're expecting from an event space that doesn't have its decorations up yet...

Another shakeup in the theme park industry. Palace owns parks like Kennywood, Lake Compounce, and Dutch Wonderland. I bet the first thing they add to the parks are cinnamon bread stands.

Quote from: jericho on March 13, 2025, 09:27:36 PM@TPF just posted this video with some info. I'm perplexed about the Thunderation clue.

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/pfzH9qvHb74

Rumor around the park today was that this may be Thunderation's last year.

Part of me can see the validility to that rumor, but I also remember last year duirng FiTH's grand opening they talked about doing multi-year refurb to keep it around. I would imagine this is its "last year" being open before being closed for a season for the refurb.

Quote from: Swoosh on March 11, 2025, 08:48:05 PMSince it was released by someone else - can confirm now that the HH restrooms have been completely redone for this season

It's about time that happened! Hopefully they added stalls to both sides, the wait for that restroom is longer than the rides themselves sometimes.

I can see it being a B&M Dive coaster if it's themed after the Ozarkian Society of Daredevils.

Could it be the trees between WF/PK got cut and you can now see between them clearly? I'm drawing blanks on that area that could cause complaints haha

Quote from: Swoosh on February 05, 2025, 10:38:14 AMYou're entitled to your own opinion, but I want you to admit to yourself that you're also one of the big reasons why this board has died.  Why would anyone want to provide any info that's not been confirmed by the park when you continually treat other posters the way you do. 

And heaven forbid plans change and a person dared to mention out of date info then you're always one of the first to say something like "see you don't know anything"

If you could quote/link my posts where I've done this then sure, I'll admit it. But I think you've gotten me confused for someone else, considering I've only had 100 posts in the last 6 years and haven't told anybody that "you don't know anything". Yes, I checked my post history. So please, if you think I've treated anybody else poorly then go head and give me the links so I can apologize.

Quote from: legoerosion on February 03, 2025, 02:21:45 PMWeird how they deleted your other reply - it's a valid question to ask. Dangling a carrot in-front of those wanting to know just makes it seem like it's for an ego-boost.

Not sure what you're insinuating but I do not have the option to delete others posts and I don't check this board very often anymore.  I get you do not like me but I'm curious what you hope to accomplish with your posting style.  It reminds me of my middle schoolers in maturity level

I am aware that you do not have the option to delete other's posts, considering the fact that you do not have a [Moderator] badge underneath your username. "They" refers to the moderators of the forum. However I can see how the wy I worded it was confusing.

My carrot-dangling analogy still stands though, which is re-enforced by

We get it, you have insider info that nobody else here has and that you can't share specific details due to confidentiality. Speculation is fun. But if you're just going to sit and drip feed us information while saying

Hey, Swoosh - would you be willing to share what you've heard so we can discuss?  I'd love to hear what you think is happening and see what other members think.

Well, since the resort doesn't open until late 2026 I can't see them opening a multi-million dollar coaster to get rooms filled. I'd like to think a decent flatride, maybe something that gives a good view over the treeline. Possibly over by Powder Keg/Wildfire and connect the two paths since they want to start getting rid of dead end paths?

Branson Talk / Re: The Imagine Resort in Hollister
October 22, 2024, 09:22:36 AM
Quote from: shavethewhales on October 21, 2024, 11:31:25 AMI was just thinking about this project today. The website is still active, but nothing new since 2020. I sent them a message to see if the project is still alive. We'll see if I hear anything back. I check the county assessor maps and the land is still owned by an entity connected to Imagine Resorts.

They say its still happening, apparently. Whether they're lying through their teeth or not is the biggest thing.

Quote from: Duelist on October 19, 2024, 10:23:43 PMThey are still having issues getting enough employees and now they think they'll find enough to staff a resort?  I see them overestimating what they can accommodate for.  And with the sad state of Branson economy?  I can see them wanting a resort but I think they're being overly optimistic with this thing.


Getting employees for a resort is a lot easier than it is for a theme park. You get to work inside, get tips, and depending on the position you don't have to deal with angry Karen's that are overstimulated and overheated. I'm sure there will be even more work visas for international students as well now that they have their dorm open.

If this is going where pumpkin plaza currently is, why is Outlaw Run in the background? Lol.

New festival and festival add-ons looks great, I love the idea of making the plaza rotate with the different festivals.
