• An “Old  West Town” circa the late 1800’s
• Horse drawn wagons & corals
• Passenger train station and water tower
• Working round house
• A fort complete with Calvary troops
• Multiple bridges over deep gorges

If you are in the southern California area over the Memorial Day Weekend, be
sure to stop by and see our all new "old west" layout.  It’s a layout that you
won’t want to miss.  And while you’re there, there are lots of other things to
do while visiting the National Orange Show at the NOS Events Center in San
Bernardino (located off the 10 or 215 freeways at 689 South "E" Street, San
Bernardino, CA 92408, for driving directions, click here:
http://www.nationalorangeshow.com/directions.htm.).  For those unable to visit
the display in person, we’ll be making an announcement as to when pictures of it
have been posted on the internet.

Larry,

I've been told by the folks at Knotts that the pass should be honored as
long as it has the 2003 cert.

This is way cool.  Two things:

1. it would have been nice to give more advance notice of this, if it was
available... this is the sort of thing that some people would fly out for if
they had enough notice.

2. will Knott's be honoring 2002 season passes for this, or do you need 2003
passes, or neither or ?? (All Cedar Fair parks honor each other's passes. I
was at Knott's in 2002 on my 2002 Michigan's Adventure pass. I have a 2002
pass and a cert for a 2003 pass but haven't picked up my 2003 pass since
Michigan's Adventure isn't open yet to issue them)
