General Silver Dollar City Talk / Re: Wood Carving Yodeler

Last post by Momster - October 15, 2026, 09:42:55 AM

Hello everyone.  I am new to this forum so please forgive me if this topic has been covered dozens of times. 

Does anyone know the name of the man that worked at SDC approximately 20 years ago and was a wood carver?  He could yodel like no other!  I just recently visited and the sadly he is no longer there.  He really left an imprint on my memory.

Bruce Grimes. He was my grandfather. Just passed away July 19th of this year. 2026

I have lots of stories, though I wasn't alive when he worked at SDC.

I was just at the park on Sunday and you can see some support structure above the fences and a bit of the track, but I think most of the pictures that have been posted are better than what can be seen within the park. Most of the track that has been completed is in the lower sections behind the waterfall, etc. It should be more exciting to see when they start going up the lifts and some of the bigger elements.

With it being right in the middle of that area and behind the waterfall - I was impressed with how "hidden" it will be. Once the foliage grows back in place I'm not sure you'll be able to see it rise up behind the waterfall, but then again, the upper levels of track have not been installed.

There are recent updates out there with plenty of photos, even from members in this thread. I would not say that people aren't excited about this coaster.

Not a picture or video in this thread for three weeks.

Google is free.

Thanks for the tip. Given the fact that this site is dedicated to SDC and this thread is dedicated to this ride specifically, it seemed logical that more regular updates would be posted as with past new projects.

Another poster recently reported that MME would in fact have multiple tunnels, which is not showcased in the official POV animated ride through. Can anyone confirm or deny?

I believe that was speculation from concept art. The art I've seen posted with that discussion shows a valley not an actual tunnel.

Many on this board don't make it to the city as often as we used to.

I'm fairly confident they are not raising prices because of the economy. They have surveyed guests with a specific focus on the economy and if it will impact leisure travel. I think the results of that survey probably showed people are spending less money on fun.

I'd imagine they looked at the data and saw that raising prices this upcoming season would likely reduce the number of visitors they get. It may still drop but hopefully not as much.

I loved the Boxing show!  Here is a very old thread about it: https://www.sdcfans.com/forums/index.php?topic=751.0

I wish they would still do shows like that

Yeah I meant elsewhere outside this forum when you search for them, there are recent construction updates in various places by people who are active in here.
