Wonderland News (Beach Construction!)

[inTIMidated]

The other day i asked a ride operator when they were going to add a new ride at wonderland. She said that managment had been promising a new ride for years. She also mentioned that they were planning the new attraction to be....wait for it. AQUA GOLF! :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: This did not help the bad mood i was already in becuase wonderland had closed the demon AND the bushbeast. I couldnt hide the discust on my face and she knew exactly how i felt, smiling and saying " pretting boring i know....but they were also looking at a few other things" I put on the nicest voice i could and said "oh really, and would that involve any new rollercoasters by any chance" she gave me a shifty reply like she was trying to hide something " well i dont know...maybe" Im hoping that they really are looking into a rollercoaster...or ill be MAD !:twisted:

Ride operators and other operational staff are usually the last to find out. So, if Wonderland was planning a new attraction we'd probably all find out the same time they do. And on this point let me just mention that from what I've heard from Wonderlands staff - they are all just as desperate for a new attraction/s as the rest of us. If Wonderland wants to continue to promote itself as a world class theme park it truly is time. By the way... what on earth is Aqua Golf?

Question: Wouldn't it be stupid for Wonderland to add an Aqua Golf course? Firstly, Panthers, a 10 minute drive away, in Penrith, already has an Aqua Golf course. Secondly, Panthers and Wonderland are involved in a lot of package deal sales... So basically, why bite the hand that feeds you?

Aqua Golf? Would someone like to explain what / how about Aqua Golf. Sound incredibly boring. Cheers, Michael

Isn't aquagolf the one where you have to hit a hole in one, and if you don't you ball goes in the water? Hopenot, cause its an up-charge and its boring

for all those who dont know what Aqua Golf is, this is from an Aqua-Golf site: Aqua-Golf® is a fun way to learn the game of golf, practice, or just spend time around the pool. It's great for parties, pool side gatherings, or by yourself :? . You don't have to get in the water to enjoy Aqua-Golf®, and it is attractive even when not in use. Aqua-Golf® uses a 3 x 5 ft. floating laminate of artificial turf and foam that is contoured to have the look and feel of a golf course green. The colorful 4 x 5 in. nylon is attached to the green with Velcro®, which makes changing pin locations easy. Twelve (12) floating Wiffle® practice balls come in 4 different colors for easy player identification. Each ball has Velcro® strips bonded to it to allow the ball to stay on the green. The balls are chipped from an 18 x 24 in. artificial grass mat that can be placed on the pool side deck. • Chip Velcro®-covered Wiffle® balls to a Floating island green. Use your own club (Golf club not included.) • Play closest-to-the-pin with family and friends. Fun for golfers of all skill levels. • A great game for parties, pool side gatherings or by yourself. • You don't have to get in the water to enjoy Aqua-Golf®. Use your skim net to retrieve floating balls. • Made in the U.S.A., UV protected and chemically friendly. Made to last for many seasons. hmmm.... sounds like about as much fun as a poke in the eye with a stick

:? I guess that will go wear Top Cat's Putt Putt was.. They still havn't removed the greens there.. But the whole idea sounds plain.. BORING! After 8 years of no-go, they want to add Aqua Golf? :? So is it just a game of mini golf over a pool of water..? :?:

Don't think of it as Aqua Golf, think of it as 'An exciting golf-ball acceleration experience for the whole family' (thats what they'll probably call it anyway. I wonder if Aqua Golf would actually attract anyone into the park? I can imagine the conversation now: "Mummy, I don't want to go to Luna Park, I wanna go play Aqua Golf!"

[Andy_q69]

Oh, well I've asked a few people what it is and it sounds like it's fun. >.<

You guys cannot be serious!! How could anyone believe such a ridiculous rumor. One of the reasons that the putt-putt course was removed was because staff were being assulted with the clubs so i cant see them re-introducing another golf game where the clubs will be used as weapons. If they did get it, it would be at the lake next to the Beach. ~Former

Staff were being assualted by clubs? lol, what brought that on?
