I know it is way past time for Carowinds Connection to go but it is still heartbreaking.

Here’s to seeing y’all’s smiling faces at Carowinds in 2021, I really wish everyone could get together for another gathering before the site closes.

I remember the first I met Doug, I was walking through Boomerang Bay with my daughter and I heard “Roller!” from behind me.

He will be missed for sure.

Memorial day is still a possibility, if society accepts the need to learn to live with this virus, rather than hide from it indefinitely. That is definitely what does not need to happen. #StayAtHome Per Governor Cooper at his press conference today, the Coca Cola 600 will run Memorial Day weekend. ...

Sure would be nice to have a link to accommodate that picture. Wouldn't mind checking out what else they have. . .

It was reported to me that a tornado formed at OR NEAR Carowinds, no damaged to Carowinds.

Hmm......
We got an old “soundstage” sitting in Thrill Zone that still fits the Wayne’s World theming....

Good point. I think about my daughter who leaves her high school at 4:00, swings by the house to change to get to get job by 5:00. That would pose a problem for students in SC who work in NC. In the case of my daughter, she wouldn't be able to work at the place she works because she couldn't leave ...

There were rumors about Thunder Road for months and they had made their to GP social media. The GP started asking questions in addition so I feel that Carowinds was left with little choice but to reveal it so early. Then they saw an opportunity to profit from Thunder Road.

Having been to Busch Gardens Williamsburg for the first time this year and Kings Dominion too, I am tempted to get a season pass for BGW or KD. Their selection of coasters and rides are more accommodating.... Something Carowinds/Cedar Fair doesn’t appear to think about when selecting new rides. No s...
