Park News - (11/10/09) A great aerial photo update from Great Adventure can be seen at GADV.com.
    (11/3/09) I’ve been sent a rumor claiming that over the off-season, the park may perform some kind of major refurbishment to the Fort Independence structure that is home to the Runaway Mine Train as well as the Skyway station.
    (11/2/09) I’m not sure if this means anything or not, but the Spider of Doom has finally made an appearance at SFGAdv on this last weekend of Fright Fest. I’ve seen a report that it was spotted up on a hillside that serves as one of the “walls” for the Northern Star Arena. Take that for what you will.
    (10/19/09) New videos of Fright Fest at Six Flags Great Adventure have been posted here.
    (10/5/09) A look at this year’s Fright Fest can be seen at GAdvOutpost and GAdv.com.
    (9/22/09) A couple of interesting rumors have been sent in lately. For starters the Great Gasp parachute drop tower is being repainted. On the more interesting side of things, we’ve also been sent a rumor claiming that Houdini’s Great Escape may be ready to reopen this weekend at long last. I’ve got some doubts about that, given the reasons I was told it was shut down in the first place, but they say that the sign has been placed back on the front gate and that a security guard told someone that it was being prepared to reopen. More as we find out.

2010 - Hurricane Harbor Expansion - (10/1/09) Six Flags has confirmed in a conference call that a Tornado slide will be added to Hurricane Harbor at SFGAdv in 2010.
    (8/27/09) Screamscape sources tell us that Six Flags Great Adventure will likely and FINALLY add a Proslide Tornado slide to Hurricane Harbor for the 2010 season. About time… as this project has only been nearly green lit on and off for the past 5 years or so.
    (10/21/08) While just on the verge of Hurricane Harbor finally adding a new attraction, we’ve now heard from a very reliable source that the waterpark might not get a new slide at all next year due to some budget cuts. The new attraction may be cut entirely or delayed until 2010.
    (10/20/08) The latest rumors about the new slide coming to Hurricane Harbor indicate that the park was looking over various plans for a Mat Racer slide since they really do need something with high capacity. Anyone know more?
    (9/5/08) According to a reader, during the Gold Carousel Awards, the President of the park (Mark Kane) confirmed that Hurricane Harbor would get a new attraction next season, however the plans to add anything to the main park had not been finalized yet.
    (7/6/08) From what I’ve been told some orange paint construction markings on trees have been discovered in Hurricane Harbor for whatever the 2009 project is.
    (7/1/08) Sources tell us that it seems fairly certain right now that Hurricane Harbor will finally add a new attraction in 2009. Since I believe this may be the only major Six Flags waterpark without a Tornado slide, they’ll probably start with by adding one since Tornado’s generally have scored high marks in the industry for guest satisfaction.
    (5/28/08 - Edited) While it may still be a bit early to say anything for sure, we’ve heard that Hurricane Harbor may finally add a new attraction in 2009 if the budget comes through for the year. The separate gate waterpark has actually never received any kind of expansion or new attraction since 2001.

2011-2012 - Dive Machine - Rumor - (10/15/07) The early buzz for 2009 or 2010 indicates that the park may be one of the first Six Flags parks to get a B&M Dive Machine. I’ve also heard a similar rumor last month for Six Flags Great America, so either both may get it or more likely it will come down to a choice of which parks needs it more or deserves it more. We’ve see what Busch did with the concept, so with the ball in Six Flags court, will they expand or simplify the design of the Dive Machine concept?
