The children's area at Kings Island has been upgraded this year with the creation of a new area: Camp Snoopy.
In this photo update, we share construction progress on the Camp Snoopy expansion at Kings Island as the area prepares to open to the public on Memorial Day weekend. As part of the ACE Spring Conference event, we got a chance to sneak a peek and get a ride on Snoopy's Soap Box Racers, a family boomerang coaster from Vekoma. Other additions as part of Camp Snoopy are a new playground for small children and a new food location Pigpen's Mess Hall. In addition to these new additions, some existing Planet Snoopy attractions got new themes including the log flume, flying eagles and kite flyer rides.
The children's area has been segmented into two areas, and any attractions being added to the new area have been refurbished.
Let's start by pointing out there are, of course, new trash cans courtesy of Cedar Fair's XDS team. For some reason, none of these trash cans at Kings Island have their lid flaps on them anymore.
Race For Your Life Charlie Brown is now Charlie Brown's Rushing River Ride.
It's still the same flume ride you know and love.
There is some new station theming.
Some trees did get cut down in the back half of the ride unfortunately.
Linus Launcher retains it's name, but gains a new entrance gate.
