News: Changes on hand for Canobie Lake Park in 2006

Posted at 3:44 PM EDT (1944 GMT)

Apr. 18th, 2006 -- As Canobie Lake Park readies to open for the 2006 season, some changes will be apparent to visitors. A new show based on Cher will replace a tribute show to Elvis. Also, the park's Tilt-A-Whirl has been refurbished and renamed.

Also, the park has decided to keep the Skater (Zamperla Disk'O) as a permanent ride in the park's lineup. It replaced the Galaxi roller coaster in the middle of last season.

The biggest change visitors will not see is the lack of presence of Kasmir Ulaky. Ulaky is one of three men who helped turn Canobie Lake Park into the family amusement park it is today. He passed away over the winter and was still involved with major decisions despite not being a physical presence.
