Massive Addition Coming to Carowinds in 2016-2017

[chknwing]

Carowinds is going to be bringing back some of that old carnival feel to the park.  they have gathered a collection of flat rides and will be adding them to the park over the next 2 seasons.  Seeing how everything has been getting bigger/newer, its going to be nice to see some nostalgic rides come to Carowinds.

"After extensive rehabs, five of the rides are heading to Carowinds outside Charlotte, N.C."

Cool stuff. Wish they would add an old arcade at the waterpark. Of course they may have one now.lol

Haven't been there in 13 years. I do enjoy variety over 2 or 3 signature rides.

my 13 yo kid spent most of last summer at Carowinds, went on the new coaster something like 70 times. I don't think this stuff is as much his cup of tea but the more rides, the smaller the lines, the better things are.

I get a little sicky feeling on the snoopy coaster these days so personally um no thanks to all of them, but good on them for doing this. Would really much rather see that arcade have more old school games so I can waste some time out of the sun.

They need to do this and add more decorations to the park. Park feels flat right know. Before you didn't notice it.  Need to bring back the water luge ride back too.

I spent so much time in the Carowinds arcade in the late 80s early 90s.  So much fun...
