https://mobile.twitter.com/mikefehnel/s ... 2167855105 this status made me a little sad. I don't want the same music Cedar Point and Kings Island have. I liked the Star-Trek and A-Team themes in the park.

Hmm Wormy might be glad for this! Love Shack Baby!

I would actually enjoy some country music at the park to help it fit its southern theme.

anyone know why the entrance is sealed off? I don't think its because of temps, its pretty warm.

[tarheel1231]

Maybe they're putting up the screens? Though I don't know why they would be secretive about that.

Painting something?

yeah I'm thinking they are spraying the ceiling etc dont want to get it on the pavers.



Also, their starting to pave today, working on the road surrounding the parking lot

Funny about the music as I was thinking the other day that. IMO, it would be pretty cool on opening day to do a little special treat before letting in the guests.

As every one will be waiting before the rope drops have the Original Carowinds song start playing and about half way through kick it into a new updated Theme Song when the rope drops.

Since Carowinds is moving forward for the years to come I think the tunes should move forward also. Just my opinion.

Isn't it something that we live in a world where you can simply tweet at a park GM and have him act on your request?

^ I actually think that was planned already with the updates for this year.

Here's what I think will happen with the trees.
In the plaza, of course, new trees MUST be added in the planters. The planters are designed for the tree's roots to grow down and around so as to not mess with the pavers above ground. The magnolias and other old trees will be transferred to the area surrounding the new entrance plaza. So obviously, it will take several years for the trees within the plaza itself to fully develop to anywhere near the size of the current magnolias.
this is just my observation. But the area surrounding the entrance will be buzzing with trees, and perhaps even some bees might find their home there.

the entrance plaza will still be very nice, but the trees won't be as large as they were in the animation, at least not for another 15 years or so.

Hmmm I don't know how I feel about the two spikes on top of the gate. They look like the back upper tail wing of a jetliner or better yet the dorsal fin of a shark.

[lingerdog]

Where do you think the pavers with the North and South Carolina county names will be installed?

[chknwing]

cant really see what it is but could be concrete form or something going in the center piece of the plaza
