Theme park in Indiana adding rides
Posted March 29, 2008 11:00 pm
SANTA CLAUS, Ind. -- Holiday World will open two new rides aimed at children for the southern Indiana amusement park's 2008 season.
One ride is a carousel with a patriotic theme. The Star Spangled Carousel will be part of the park's Fourth of July section. It will have 30 horses and other animals, plus two chariots.
The other rise is called Reindeer Games. Park officials say the three-story ride will give children a chance to "leap in the air like reindeer."
The park at the town of Santa Claus previously announced it would open a new water park called Kima Bay next spring.
Holiday World President Will Koch says the park anticipates hiring an additional 50 seasonal employees for the new attractions.
