Station work looks to be about 50% done?

Also check out these new events for Season Pass holders!
https://www.visitkingsisland.com/things-to-do/events-and-promotions

Some good perk's for being a pass holder! Most notable are the Mystic Timber Tuesday's ERT till 11 PM!! (05/16/17, 05/23/17, 05/30/17, 06/06/17, 06/13/17, 06/20/17, 06/27/17)

Was at the park for a returner party on Saturday and I couldn't help but snag some photos of this beauty closest to The Beast in Rivertown and let me just say this. YOU CAN SEE THE RIDE FROM INTERNATIONAL STREET BY AUNTIE ANN'S.......... and the new GM made his debut Saturday as well! (Photo credit to Kings Island)

Lift chain was installed yesterday AND the transfer now has a roof, you can probably guess what two things will be happening probably in a couple weeks!
