This coaster has had it's name changed more times than some coasters in SFI's ride rotation program ::). And it hasn't moved once.
Are you ready to send those commies running back to their mommies?

In March issue of South Jersey Magazine
Danielle L. Burrows wrote a great article on CLementon parks past and Future
I was quoted in the article a few times.

David Dorman, the general manager (ex Six Flags exc.) noted in the article that they will have a extra parking lot of route 30 for overflow with a shuttle.
also.
Concerning the Coasters name (Puma) he mentions it was a place holder (was accidentally posted on the website) and will be changed to to be more inline with the forest theme that will be incorporated in that area.
He also said the coaster will be repaired to make it smoother and Slower so it can be open everyday.
"When you combine a short coaster with 110 foot its a fascination lesson in physics."


so it looks like Tsunami will be trimmed  :'( but the question is where  ?

the magazine article is a great read can be found at local newsstands

Also here is a Link of the parks owners Adrenaline Family Entertainment
they plan on buying 8-10 more small family parks. Clementon is their first park

are they near by

just thinking if my season pass would be good if they ever did acquire another property

I also see that they are working on the Water Play structure area

Stopped by the park for a few minutes yesterday to talk to my manager. Hell Cat name is confirmed. Park is looking amazing compared to what it use to be.  :)

Hell Cat...perhaps the best name yet. I like it!

Can anyone confirm what has been or will be done to the ride? Trims, reprofiling? When I drove passed it last weekend, I noticed fresh wood going up the second hill and thought I saw the red train in the station. I keep hearing rumors that they want to tame it for the whole family. ::) As is, it is my second favorite woodie behind Voyage. I love how vicious it is!

Yes i seen that same new wood.
Men worked on the section for around a week  i think from driving by.
I hope they don't tame it much but i hear they will

I also love the ride

Medusa32 do you know the location of any trims to be added ?

I will know more in a few weeks when I start working at the park again. I don't know if or where the trims are.

I rode by many times this week and yes the park now:

- Has many buildings painted Victorian colors (even the ferris wheel cars have these same colors now)
- Water structure is rising fast at the old arcade location

now if they can get some of the old flats back like they had when i was a kid. just look at Knoebels and you will see what clementon used to be like and why i loved the park back then. Imagen riding the flyers everyday living blocks a way.
Flyers,Bumper cars,whip,a walk through Whacky Shack,a ride through Haunted  House,a Tribant,a Giant merry go round,a old time giant ferris wheel that held around 14+ people with 2 bench seats,lake swimming with divingboards,slides and docks,a mirror maze,a Houdini type ride,a dance hall above the food stand and they had a old rollercoaster called the Jack Rabbit  ;)

I will take some pics later today and post here tonight or tomorrow  since this is "Pictures of Clementon thread"

from the other day May 5th 2008
these are 800x600 so you may need to expand the screen in the upper right corner (the 2 sets of 3 dots)
Still only $49 for season passes Park opens in 17 days

Looks Like Fun \/




new skyline \/  still only $49  looks like some prices are dropping during this recession like parks
