Wonderland Pier, Ocean City to celebrate 40th (DEC 24; 12:00 PM) Wonderland Pier, Ocean City, N.J., will celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2005 in a big way, a couple of millions dollars big.
According to Jay Gillian, the park should take delivery on a L & T Systems family coaster mid-summer next year. He expects delivery on a Wisdom Moby Dick in the spring and he already has taken delivery on a Sky Glider from Rides-4-U Inc.
"It was just time to upgrade," Gillian said. "We have sold our Schwarzkopf City Jet coaster to Intal (International). We just kind of traded it in for this L & T coaster. The City Jet coaster is almost down now." Gillian said even though he expects delivery mid-summer of the L & T coaster, it will probably be fall, 2005, before it is erected -- "we don't want cranes out here during the season." He plans to move in a Sizzler and a Kite Flyer to fill the space the coaster will leave on the grounds. "And we will have something here coaster-wise for the season even if we have to book something in," he said. The L & T coaster will be placed beside the Canyon Falls Log Flume ride and will take on that sort of theming.
