Through official or unofficial contacts? (Just curious)

Glad to hear! The ride deserves better than to be quietly removed!

If we ever get to go back I am probably going to ride the crap out of that ride.

Hmmm, so Mystic River Falls isn't ready in mid June... I have heard that the elevator wasn't even in place as of a few weeks ago. Seems like 99% of the ride and area is ready to go, except for the one important lynch pin that we were worried about. Sigh, at least it will be next year's new ride too.

Correct.  MRF will not be open anytime soon.  The elevator has not been built yet.  They have been doing some raft tests on the final drop but even that needs some adjustments still.

Fixed it for you.

Great news.
Small wonder our lives have so little of God in them, when we come in touch with so little that God has made.

I like the fact that the video featuring Brad Thomas announcing the COVID-19 guidelines was filmed in front of the nearly completed Mystic River Falls.  Looks great!

Brad Thomas released another Teaser Photo of MRF over on Twitter, looks like the lift might be done or very close to being. https://twitter.com/BradThomasMO/status/1271543126931406849?s=20
