You're reaching ethan,...

lance rambling wrote:Park News - (7/14/15) In an interesting find, it seems Cedar Fair has filed for a new trademark that appears to be for Carowinds, to use the name "Carolina Harbor" for a future attraction. Could this be a new name for the expanded waterpark instead of Boomerang Bay? Me... I kind of hope not someone who grew up very close to the beach, it was the beach where you went to swim... and not in something dirty like a "harbor", which always had more of an industrial air about the name... like where big ships come to dock, unload mysterious cargo, and a place where the "underworld" forces are at play.
A "Harbor" or any kind just doesn't sound like a place you can swim without fear of running across a stray needle or sewage. Maybe it's just me over-reacting, but I seriously hope this is a name for a section of the park, or a restaurant row, and not someplace they want us to swim. What also struck me as very odd about the filing is that rather than file it as being from the main company, they chose to file it from "Millennium Operations LLC", a wholly owned subsidiary company of Cedar Fair. So were they just trying to hide this from watching eyes, or is there perhaps another reason?

Did he have a carowinds quota and had to fill it with this update?

I find it very interesting how if I type "carolina harbor trademark" into Google, the first result is the Carowinds official website... I would like to see if this would be the case if someone else tried to search this as well. I wonder if there is some hidden page on the Carowinds website that is prompting the search engine to it based on this query. :think:

I tried and it din't bring up the Carowinds website. It did bring up Justia Trademarks and the short description says "Jul 9, 2015 - CAROLINA HARBOR is a trademark of Millennium Operations LLC. Filed in July 6 (2015), the CAROLINA HARBOR covers Metal key chains." The second result is Carowinds Connections.

^ Hmmm... I wonder if they are going to have a Facebook giveaway like last time? They sure are advertising the "big splash"... it must be something *kinda* big. Does anyone know how they acted for KD's waterpark expansion? Did they tease this much? Did they even have a media day???
