    (8/15/11) Zombies will invade Dorney Park on Thursday night it seems, as a Zombie Walk group will descend upon the park. According to this article, the park is also involved in this, as the zombie hordes will also be attempting to set a world record for having the most costumed characters riding a roller coaster. The current record is 250 but they’re hoping to more than double that as the zombie horde is ushered onto Steel Force during the course of the evening. There is always room for more Zombies, so check out the last paragraph for information on how you too can join the zombie masses and help set the world record on Steel Force.
    (7/26/11)  Dorney Park has come to a new agreement with the South Whitehall Township to modify some of the language that allows them to add new tall rides to the park in the future. It’s a bit complicated, so follow the link to read the real story.
    (6/10/11) According to BlooLoop, Dorney Park has stuck a deal with the city to purchase 6.75 acres of connecting property for $2.75 million. The plan for the site (not sure exactly where) will allow for the park to expand both it’s ride offerings as well as parking facilities.

2012 - Dinosaurs Alive - (3/13/12) The local news reports that Dorney Park’s new Dinosaurs Alive upcharge attraction will be ready to open on April 28th.
    (9/23/11) I’m shocked… and somehow I’m not. According to the local news we can add Dorney Park to the growing list of parks that are going to put up Cedar Fair’s most unpopular temporary upcharge attraction of all time for the 2012 season. Yes… even Dorney Park is going to add Dinosaurs Alive.
    Speaking of which… and putting a positive spin at least on this news, think of it this way. At least Dorney is adding another coaster to the park in 2012 in addition to this. That’s more than Kings Dominion and Cedar Point can say.
