A lot of progress was made yesterday on Windstorm.

Looks like the Haunted Dark Ride has arrived as well.

New Fountain (WOF)

Today, Worlds of Fun announced that they would be installing a brand new fountain in place of the former Sunken Fountain near the Front Street Shops.  Here is conceptual art of the new fountain.

They have already completed quite a bit of the fountain.  Here is a wide shot of the new fountain area.  You can see where the greenery will go around the pathways.

Here is a close up of the start of the star formation of the fountain.  This is a major upgrade from what used to be here.

Floral Clock (WOF)

The park officially announced the return of the Floral Clock today.  Here is the current state of this new version of the Floral Clock.

We've gone vertical on Windstorm!

Nordic Chaser (WOF)

Nordic Chaser is now testing at Worlds of Fun

Up to 2 riders will sit in each of these boats.

The ride then speeds the boats around in a circle while going up down.

The new Nordic Chaser is scheduled to open with the park later this month.

Nordic Chaser (WOF)

Nordic Chaser is in the process of being installed at the park.  The park hopes to have it ready for operation on Opening Weekend.

Here you can get a better idea of how the ride is progressing.  It looks like most of the boats are already installed.   The control booth can be seen on the right side of the photo.

In addition, the centerpiece of the ride has also arrived.  It will be interesting to see the finished product in operation this season.

Timber Wolf (WOF)

Construction on the new turnaround on Timber Wolf reached a milestone this week.

Construction of the physical structure is now complete.

Installation of the track is still ongoing though.

The banking of curve is sure to help the train maintain its speed in the second half of the ride.  Something that will be completely different from the previous version.

As of now, the park is predicting a Memorial Day weekend opening
