2006 Construction Update

March 26, 2006

One of the questions that popped to mind during last weekends construction tour of The Voyage was what about the above ground part of the tunnel after The Voyage passes its mid-course brake?  Well early last week the roof for part of it appeared.  It is a little hard to see since they covered it with tar paper but it can be seen on the left side of the photo just above the enormous pile of dirt from this year's projects.

Last week Gobbler Getaway was nothing but the concrete foundation and now has all of its structure and they are studding out the walls.

Gobbler Getaway is a huge building and I can't wait to see it all together and up and running.  

There also has been a lot of work on the bridge over into the new Thanksgiving section this week.  From the looks of it the bed of the bridge is complete and they've been working on the stretch heading up the hill into Holiday World.  While the hill hadn't really been touched last week with all of the dump trucks heading in and out of the area it is easy to assume that they are working on transforming that area.

Here's a wide view of the construction site.  There's just forty days to go until Holiday World's 2006 season kicks off.
