I didn't read the article but I can tell you that this is a very fun park. It is extremely family oriented but Pheonix and Twister are great. The fact that it is a pay per ride is good for them as well.

You can only get a wristband on Weekdays. On Weekends you have to buy individual tickets.

It is not that expensive though. Their website(if they have one) should tell you the prices.
EDIT: Go to the bottom of this page for the rates http://www.knoebels.com/rates.htm. They mat seem expensive but iif you have a group of around five people and you buy a ticket book, it works ou really well.

They have a super neato dark ride there as well. I had never paid much attention to dark rides before I rode theirs. Now I make sure I find a new one or two every year. Knoebels is a VERY unique park. It's got its own personality, but it also has that Pennsylvania amusement park feel too. I only get there once or twice a year, but I love it.
Even if you are far away, put this place on your list this year. It's easy to string Knoebels, Hershey, Dorney, Bushkill (flood?), and even SF: Great Adventure together. I also promise you that Phoenix is WAY better than Kingda Ka.*
