Great Escape 2019- Hurricane Harbor & More

They are starting to update the website with the Hurricane Harbor name changes. I'll highlight them below.....

I'll post it in a "Previous - New" format

Capt'n Hook's River Adventure - Adventure River
Mega Wedgie - Big Kahuna
Lumberjack Splash Wave Pool - Hurricane Bay
Paul Bunyan's Bucket Brigade - Splashwater Island
Black Cobra - Typhoon Twister
Twisted Racer - Wahoo Racer
Cliffhanger - Paradise Plunge

There's likely more name changes coming (and a few that will be unchanged) that haven't been updated on the website yet so we'll have to wait and see on:

Buccaneer Beach, Tornado, Bonzai Pipelines, the 3 Kingdom Cascade's slides (Blue Typhoon, Twister Falls, Banshee Plunge) and anything else I may have missed.

Paradise Plunge is not the name I would have imagined for Cliffhanger LOL. But i added it to the list anyways.

But hey, overall I think the names are pretty good.

From what I’ve heard, this will be a full blown renovation of the waterpark- not just some cheap signs and Bucket Blasters like most of us (including myself) initially thought.

Unless things change between now and Memorial Day, there should be new theming throughout, new paint on the older slides and elsewhere, the new names, some older attractions being rethemed, Bucket Blasters, Shipwreck Cove, etc.

It does stink to lose the uniqueness of Splashwater Kingdom’s theme, but if they do this the right way the water park should look close to new.

Interesting that the park is promoting Bucket Blasters but not Shipwreck Cove. It’s on the website and is obviously getting built but i’d love to know whey they aren’t promoting it- even if it is a small splash area. The dunkin donut ads are also out in store and dont mention shipwreck cove.
