WILD ADVENTURES
Valdosta, GA

 Park News - (3/14/12) According to the Wild Adventures website they have renamed the park’s Vekoma SLC from Hangman to Twisted Typhoon. No word on why they chose to rename it at this point in time, though it looks like the new name is trying to fit in more with the theme of the nearby waterpark and not so much with the western theme of the area around the coaster.
(1/3/12) New pictures sent in by a reader show off that Hangman is getting a new paint job and all new colors. The color scheme may look familiar to local Six Flags fans as green track and blue support do look quite a bit like the old Déjà Vu coaster.
(10/21/11) Wild Adventures has announced their 2012 concert lineup which you can find here.
(10/10/11) Music fans will want to take note that Dolly Parton will be appearing in concert at Wild Adventures on Friday, October 14th at 8pm. General seating is free with admission, but you can also pay extra for reserved seats online, by phone or at the park. Phobia is also slated to take place this night, but will happen after the concert. Click here for all the details you need to know.
(9/29/11) Wild Adventures will launch their two part Halloween events at the end of this week. During the daytime (Oct 1-30 Sat & Sun only) the park will host Kid-O-Ween family friendly events in the park and on Friday and Saturday nights (Sept. 30 – Oct. 29) the park will bring back Phobia: The Legend of the Blackwater Swamp.

2012 - Nothing is known at this point in time...
Future Concepts - The following are possible new attraction ideas that the park has asked their guests about in various surveys. While none of these may ever be built, they do represent a great idea about the kinds of attractions the park was thinking about building in the future at the time.
(3/25/10) Wild Adventures has sent out a future attraction survey to many of their passholders this week. The five ideas being asked about include: Dinosaur Expedition (a walk-through attraction with lifesized Dinosaurs), High Seas Diving Stunt Show (Pirates themed), Casper’s Ghost Blasters (Interactive Dark Ride) and Two Giant Family Tube Slides for the waterpark and a Jungle themed area with a Zamperla Disk’O.
(6/1/09) Wild Adventures has been taking a survey about some new ride ideas lately. According to our source they ask opinions about four new attraction ideas: Mammoth River (Family Raft Slide), Racing Slide (4 lane mat racer), a collection of new Family Thrill Rides (Junior Coaster, Orbiter, Screamin’ Eagles, Fireball as well as a new animal exhibit) and finally Night Fire, a new Nighttime Spectacular that would mix lasers, projections, lighting effects and fireworks. Looks like the new owners are looking at almost any and all possibilities right now, except for adding a large new coaster.
