Yesterday was a huge day for coaster announcements throughout the Cedar Fair Chain. While much of the attention went to Cedar Point as always, it was the west coast of the chain that had a couple of announcements later in the day that proved to be worth the wait. 

We were invited to the announcement event at Knott's Berry Farm, Here is our story. =)

After spending a few hours in the park enjoying National Rollercoaster Day it was time to head over to the Boardwalk BBQ for some yummy food, drinks and music. 

​Oh, and some kind of announcement thing.

Of course Dan from Westcoaster had to curse the new ride before it was even announced. 

We were all pretty happy the new ride had nothing to do with Wind.

After the announcement we were given a little tour of the site. 
They are going to start pouring the foundations on August 28. So that means when we go back to the park for the Knott's Scary Farm event on the 31st we should have some nice construction shots too.
