An Answer to the Magic Springs Question?


News coming out of Magic Springs and Crystal Falls theme park, located in Arkansas, this year has not been good. The park has had many rides down for a large part of the season, including their top thrill rides, like the X-Coaster seen above.

The Arkansas Times just ran a story that lets the park tell their side of things, and from this the situation doesn't look nearly as bleak for the future of Magic Springs as it has recently. Seems there was still litigation going on from the purchase of the park as recently as the start of this year, and the former owners left a lot of maintenance issues for PARC Management to fix, resulting in massive ride downtime.

You can read the details on your own, but hopefully now that many of the issues are resolved the park can put all this behind them. Also of note to potential visitors is that the X-Coaster seen above is currently the only ride that hasn't reopened for the 2009 season.
