 Alrighty so normally we kind of create these types of videos a little closer to wonderland opening as information starts to kind of leak through the pipeline and soar through the sky with the little birdies but the salt trucks are a spin in so as I'm gonna say take everything I'm about to tell you with a huge grain of salt um but the birdies have been chirping and I'm here to give you guys a little like pre-season information drop so I'm hearing through the grapevine and as wonderland has kind of semi confirmed but I assumed it could have been a mistake at first um 16 plus year olds will now be able to be ride operators at Canada's wonderland so that is a change that they made um on top of that um there are going to be some changes to wonderland's height requirements so the color coding of the height requirements is going to change that is just a rumbling I'm hearing in the industry um so a lot of TSA changes and there's gonna be some IROC changes coming to the park as well. There are a few other changes that I'm not ready to discuss but yet stay tuned for that as it's all really exciting news especially for park employees um but on top of that I guess I can drop the news that Vikings Rage is going to receive a little enhancement so for those of you that saw last off season clockworks and swings of the century received a little you know refurbishment upgrade and now I'm hearing that Vikings Rage might be on that list you guys already know this next piece of information if you follow the channel closely or if you're a newer viewer Thunder Run is um speculated at the moment semi confirmed by Canada's wonderland to be receiving some upgrades to its theming as well so that'll be really cool to see what that transpires into um for those of you that care um there's going to be um some really big enhancements to Canada's wonderland's app in fact it should be launching this week or the week after so right up on the screen I'll show you what it should look like this is Cedar Point um the main park in the chain so as you can see here it's a really crisp um easy to use system super excited about it um and it has a lot to offer in fact one of my favorite features about this new park app upgrade is the wait times and the park map so that'll be really exciting to see as um I think it's really user friendly um and it has a lot of ability such as adding your credit card and debit card in there um and from what I fully expect what isn't on there yet is mobile ordering and um purchasing your tickets and being able to print them out of machine um and the new fast lane feature that we should be seeing as well so you should be able to upload your fast lane onto this app and uh yeah so that's really exciting um I'm just showing it on the screen for you guys so you guys can get a quick look at it it's very user friendly and I love it it's such a huge improvement in other news Wonderland has started its hiring process so if you are looking for the job for the 2024 season um definitely start applying now as the hiring process has started and um it'll be taking place over the next two to four weeks um and then onboarding is also taking place and then obviously training so if you're looking for a job definitely get on top of that right now as they've just started hiring and as I said you can now operate rides at the starting age of 16.
