If this area has a chance at a full-season amusement park, my money is on Vala's getting there. Everything I see has them trending that way, and they have the space to do it
For the record NEBUGEATER does not equal BUGEATER !!!!!!!

Wow, did not have that on my bingo card. So going into this year they added another coaster, the Sea Dragon and a brand new, nice outdoor miniature golf course.
Love to see this. Better than ever.

They mentioned the sea dragon ride was custom built for them and will hold 42 people.
They definitely are re-investing into themselves.
All of these are included with admission!

I haven't noticed where they are going to have the actual pumpkin patch here this year. Normally it is on the hill facing the egg barn but this year it is corn. Of course they are going to be growing pumpkins, just not sure where?

I was on this yesterday, I personally liked it better than the other roller coaster. Nothing scary about it, but I like how the cars spin around.WBR_Tom wrote: Fri Aug 14, 2026 8:27 am Here's the video announcing the coaster. It doesn't look much bigger/taller than the first one to me, but the cars spin 360 degrees independent of each other as they go along the track, which they claim will make every ride unique. Looks fun. Can't wait to try it out in a couple weeks.
