Where is this at in Coney Mall? Edit, read the other few above posts, near Jukebox Diner, interesting!

Looking at the webcams and I just noticed that there seems to be umbrellas now where the tables is in front of Pigpens Mess Hall, glad to see the park was on it! Is anyone there today to take some pictures?

What it looks like in brenthodge's 2nd picture is a couple new tree's they did plant for Camp Snoopy, and I went through the KICentral last 2 videos of the area, and they are indeed new trees! So, I am happy to see this!

Wow interesting! I am all for the Giga Dive Coaster, that would be amazing! Do it KI!

I didn't notice that till now, that is funny! I haven't read anything yet about what kinda of meat.

I am going to have to try that quesadilla out at The Mecardo.

Yeah that’s why I didn’t share the new construction update, was really nothing we didn’t already know. Hope we get to see some pics or even a video sometime of them repainting (wink KI Team) Woodstock Gliders to Franklin’s Flyers.

Sad to see what is going on in the country. I don't see the KI or any of the Cedar Fair chaperone policy's going away anytime soon.

I don't think anyone's noticed but while looking at the webcams, Snoopy's Soap Box Racers is going to go over the Log Flume, that's neat!

I think they are right by going with the Camp Snoopy push as the main thing, they want to retake the Golden Ticket Award back, and you don’t do that just by talking about a new coaster, it needs to be them talking about expanding Planet Snoopy, and that’s what they’re doing. It would be nice to see a Peanuts Pirate ride added someday, it’s popular at Carowinds.

Well that was fast!

New Kings Island Camp Snoopy blog post from yesterday, some new pictures of the area. Camp Snoopy Construction Update (visitkingsisland.com)

Looks like a truck is backing up right now, with what looks like another piece of the coaster or supports. Here's a new pic.

New construction update from yesterday, looks like the coaster will start going vertical next week!

Camp Snoopy update from yesterday, looks like assembly of the coaster will begin soon, we’re getting closer! Hope they get pictures and video! https://www.visitkingsisland.com/blog/2024/january/camp-snoopy-construction-update

Looks like there's a crane out there right now, could we see the first part of the track go up today?

Maybe one of the reasons KI waited in starting was because of the last few months the park is open for WinterFest. Could we imagine how upset guests would be, if half of Planet Snoopy wasn’t open for it? Woodstock Gliders and Linus Launcher needing repainted, and possibly Snoopy Boutique being closed for the new restaurant. I would take opening Camp Snoopy around Memorial Day, before closing half of Planet Snoopy during WinterFest. But Good Gravy is looking sweet though!

Hard to say but we’ll know for sure if the Snoppy Boutique signs come down. It’s out of the area where they originally announced Camp Snoppy to be going. It might be the ‘food truck’ like @PKIDeliriumsays, but would they really use the word ‘Hall’ for something that can be moved like a food truck?

Here we are in 2024 already, so I made the thread for the new year. We have a lot to look forward to like Camp Snoopy opening up in late spring. Here is the link to the calendar and hours as of now for the 2024 season. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/calendar-and-hours

Liked the update and Woodstock Gliders will look great with the new look.

Had a great time, the lights were amazing, wish I bought a hot chocolate, the line was long so I didn’t feel like standing in line, kinda wish I did now. The balloon drop for the kids and families was energetic. The 2023 season was so much fun, and can’t wait for the 2024 season to start!

Anyone going to the park tonight to get some new pictures?

Looks like Seabreeze Amusement Park is removing their Bisch-Rocco Flying Scooters ride next year, they're adding a WindstarZ. This gives Kings Island a chance to head over to NY and take it off their hands, hopefully bringing back an old classic style scooters ride. It could replace that basketball game in Coney Mall!

I don't know about it going all the way to the front like that, have it end right before the preferred parking area begins, so we keep the green space on both sides while guests are walking up to the gate would be nice.

Yeah, this could work, Cedar Fair/SF should capitalize on this and look into making it happen imo. What would they do with Timberwolf then? I can see a coaster going there and a new theme/name for Action Zone also,
