Miracle Strip at Pier Park opening March 6, 2010

:clap: So glad it is coming back!! Thanks Hop and I love your new avatar!

I wonder which rides they rescued?

A field trip is required to check that out SWGB. Will have to take the grandkiddies over there. Some rides have been going for awhile. Not sure if they were part of the old Miracle Strip or not. But, oh happy day that a remnant of our gilded past is being resurrected.

If you find out, let me know.

Even though my days of riding it have long been over, you know the Starliner went to Cypress Gardens, and then (unless something has changed) THEY closed too...

I miss the Snowman. :blush:

I miss all of the air conditioned rides. Nothing like going into one of those on a sultry August night. :cool:

Definitely, my understanding is that the carousel that is currently there is from Miracle Strip.

"in March 2010, Miracle Strip will be reborn... all be it in a much smaller version. Our vision is to keep a retro feel...simple rides, simple games, simple fun. We are starting small and will expand in a measured and profitable way to ensure our success."

Fond memories!

I have wonderful memories, of annual family trips to PCB and the Miracle Strip!:wub: I'll be happy to share that experience, with my grandson!:clap:

Pulled from Facebook page:

The original Miracle Strip Amusement Park closed for good in 2004. Now, it is being revived all be it in a much smaller venue. We have purchased the last remaining rides from the former MSAP and will be reopening in March 2010 at Pier Park.:clap:

What a beautiful weekend for the reopening!!!:clap::wub:

Another great weekend, indeed. As usual, lots of choices. Will have to make a game plan to get through it all!! Wonder if I can still use the wristband I saved from the last day the old Miracle Strip Amusement Park was open.

Hopefully they can find a scrambler and build a dome around it and turn up the A/C and strobe lights and cool tunes (I vote for 70s - 80s songs so it would be just like back in the day)...I miss the Snowman!

I just wish they had re-located to a place that wasn't in full view of the Grand movie theater- every time we exit the theater, any children in tow all start begging in unison "Can we PLEASE ride the rides??"" The cost of an afternoon at the movies just doubled.:bang: I have managed to stay strong so far.

I think an annual pass is going to be necessary - they have a $69 annual special which includes a buddy pass.

They need the Super Himalaya instead of the Scrambler. They set that up at our local fair every year and play rock music and have strobe lights for it. it is covered over, that is my favorite ride at the fair. I love it.
