Kings Island, Kings island, Ohio

If you want a little bit of history take the Charlie Brown's Rushing River Log Ride for a spin.  This classic Arrow Dynamics designed Log Flume opened at Kings Island's predecessor, Coney Island in 1968 where it ran until 1970 when that park opened.  It did not open with Kings Island in 1971 but was the big addition for the 1972 season.  It has had numerous names and themes throughout the years but it is still a classic Arrow log flume.

Snoopy's Soap Box Racers is a family boomerang coaster that was designed by Vekoma who also made Woodstock's Air Rail.

Being a "family boomerang" there are no loops or head banging like on Vekoma's old school boomerang coasters.  Snoopy's Soap Box Racers is a fun little coaster for pretty much everyone.
