Resort News - (11/16/09) A reader sent in a link to show off pictures taken at the park this past weekend for Christmas Candylane. Enjoy!
    (10/7/09) The Hersheypark Carrousel was honored this past week by the National Carousel Association when they presented the park with a plaque for all the dedicated work they’ve done to preserve the Hersheypark Carrousel, which was first built by PTC back in 1919 before being moved to Hersheypark in 1945.
    (10/5/09) Numerous people have written in over the weekend to confirm that Hersheypark’s sudden switch to promoting only 10 coasters instead of 11 is not because they are removing anything at all. Instead they have simply shut down Roller Soaker for the winter, along with the rest of the Boardwalk area, and are only running 10 coasters for the rest of the season.
    (9/11/09) Screamscape sources tell us that Hersheypark is looking into plans that would relocate Park Blvd on the south side of the park to take a new path through the old Country Club site. The old road will be removed allowing for Hersheypark to expand into the remainder of the property there over the years as needed.
    (9/1/09) Hershey’s Chocolate World attraction celebrated it’s 75 million visitor this week.

2010 - General Improvements - Rumor - (11/10/09) While nothing new is expected to open at Hersheypark in 2010 right now, we have heard that the Trailblazer may get a big renovation that could see a new station built for the mine train, as well as other several other small improvements around the park. Another such concept said to be in the works may be improved queues for the Kissing Tower and Twin Turnpike.

2011/2012 - New Waterslides / New Ride(s) - Rumor - (7/31/09) According to the latest rumors the previous 2010 expansion plans are now said to have been dropped or delayed by at least a year in an effort to recover a bit from the sour economy.
    (6/30/09) One big 2010 Rumor has come back into play from last season, which is the rumored addition of two new waterslides to the Coastline Plunge tower. The tower currently features four major slides that run off into two different splashdown pools, but it has long been noticed that they seemed to have left room to add one or two more slides to these pools. Could 2010 be the year? One of our sources sure thinks so. In addition to this, there are also the reoccurring rumors that the park may be ready to finally add a real drop tower ride next year, or possibly a couple of new flat rides. These could all be options to choose from for next season... or pieces of a larger expansion plan. More as we find out.
