Relocate and Revamp Iconic Rides at Kennywood Park


Relocate and Revamp Iconic Rides at Kennywood Park
The Issue
As a passionate visitor and avid fan of Kennywood Park, I am writing this petition on behalf of many others who share a deep love and nostalgia for the park's classic rides. Specifically, we are advocating for the relocation of The Wave Swinger to the current location of the Wacky Wheel and the replacement of the Volcano ride to pave way for the rebirth of an improved log jammer / log flume ride at its original location in Lost Kennywood.
Our attachment to these rides is more than just about the thrill; it is about the memories created and the sense of community strengthened every time we step onto them. We are also campaigning for the return of the wipeout ride in its previous site at Lost Kennywood, and the placement of the wipeout ride to its original position permanently. This is not just about opening new chapters but also about revisiting and celebrating the ones that defined Kennywood's unique charm.
Moreover, honoring popular demand, we are proposing to bring back and refurbish the Burn Kurve ride for one last time, allowing another generation to savor its unique thrills. It’s important to note that such changes would not only pay homage to Kennywood's glory days but could enhance the park’s attraction and increase its visitors.
We urge Kennywood Park management to undertake these changes, not just as a way to honour Kennywood's storied past, but with the objective of creating attractions that could potentially draw in many more fun-loving visitors. Therefore, we firmly believe in bringing these well-loved rides back to where they truly belong, permanently.
Join us in our endeavor to keep the spirit and character of Kennywood Park alive. Please sign our petition to support this cause.
