HOLIDAY WORLD - 2001

by miner - last update: Aug 27, 2004

It's really a family thing
This is a plaque commemorating 50 years of the family owned theme park.
Nativity Scene as you enter the park between entrance and main plaza area.
The outdoor theater has country shows and just recently added Gospel shows.There is usually audience participation.
What a view !!
The Banshee or Lunch Loser. This ride will put your stomach up to your throat! But MAN what a view of the area!
The Bird ride. You can have a little control over this ride. Moving the head makes the bird dive and climb.I let my young daughter ride this by herself and after she( being light weight and a daredevil) was soaring higher than the other riders and clipping leaves off the tree branches of nearby trees and attracting a crowd.Her mom was not happy with either of us!!
The park is seperated into different holiday themes. All the rides in these areas are named to reflect the respective season.
Holidogs Funtown is for the little folks who are too young for the bigger rides. The food sold in this area is even geared for the younger guests.
Home of Holidog
The Legend
The newest roller coaster at the park located in Halloween section of the park.
Under all the water is a log full of wet people. This is the climax of traveling through a dark tunnel,down some rapids,past a cemetary,and finally climbing to the summit before the plunge.
Wet and Wild
Mother Goose Train
Mother Goose Train Station. The oldest ride in the park. I still enjoy riding this ride after all these years.
Splashin' Safari Water Park. this is just a small part of this section of the park. The most awesome water park I have ever seen. There is something new added to this park almost every year. It is a large attraction in our area.
SPASHIN' SAFARI
Another view of the water park. There are thrill rides or you can just tube down the river and laze in the sun.

 Hello Joe! You've been cheated! The one and only Santa Claus lives in Korvatunturi, Finland and has his workshop in Rovaniemi. Happy birthday from Finland!

 Santa has left the North Pole and moved to Indiana! Fun page! I bet you were so proud to see your daughter performing on stage. I would LOVE to ride the Banshee. :-) ~Elaine~
