Kennywood 2011 Additions

(2/22/11) Screamscape has heard an interesting rumor that Kennywood may be considering holding some kind of winter season event in late 2011 in an attempt to extend their operating season past Halloween. Anyone know more?

(10/2/10) While nothing firm has come from the park yet, we’ve heard once again that Garfield may need to find a new home this winter and The Old Mill may take on a new theme for 2011.

(6/14/11) This just may be a crazy rumor at the moment…but I’m going to throw it out there just in case. A reader tells me that during a visit to Kennywood the other day the park’s Pittfall (Intamin Giant Drop) was only running half of its cars. After chatting about it with the ride ops they were told that this season was expected to be the last year for the ride at the park. Can anyone else confirm this? I’m a bit surprised at this idea myself, as I remember Pittfall having one of the more intimidating views from the top of the tower of just about any tower ride anywhere.
