 Yeah, we're going to tear down the Mountainside bakery building and put it there. So it'll be in the order of 13,000 square feet We'll have a bar Lines for the cafeteria style pick up and then an indoor dining hall A timber lodge As well, we're in the final phases of the concept design So the question was is the park capacity still 60,000 so I think the 60,000 number is a number that's sort of floating around The park doesn't release its official capacity numbers But the capacity of the park has changed a little bit as we've grown In the park, I don't know if any of you remember when we used to have racing rivers and before that Pharaoh's eye and Spring Siam that Plaza going down in Heimeth was added over the years We also added the zoom zone Plaza And other pockets in the park so it has changed over the years You know what I usually want to ride is removed it's usually low ridership I was always curious about buying curve because It seemed like it was still a popular ride. I'm not too sure if it was was there another reason why it was removed But the question was about Baron Curve. Anybody remember the ride Baron Curve? Yeah, it was it was placed in the park where clockworks is now and clockwork used to be where shockwave was The question was why was it removed? Was it solely because of ridership? the decision to remove a ride is not one we take lightly and We look at many factors one of them is ridership obviously one of them is reliability and cost how much does it take to maintain? And another one is do we need to make room for something else when the decision was made to install shockwave? We needed to find a room for that and we felt that clockworks was a more popular ride than Baron Curve so we relocated Baron or clockworks to the very curve site and We salvaged the parts to share with one of our sister parks that had the same ride with time And then the rest of it went to scrap Will we be expecting any more Bigger ride just in the future bigger than the Bible. Are you like looking into adding more bigger rides than arriving So the question was are we looking to add more rides for this getting bigger rides for the future Bigger than the vipen so I get asked this question that a lot of Q&A's and my pot answer is stay tuned I can't comment on the future unfortunately or what the future holds for the part Part of our marketing strategies that will those secrets tight and revealed them when the time is right Last but not least how is how we hunt and what your best can affect with all the masks and everything? So question was about COVID protocols during How we hunt and what your best so under the current guidance from the public health authority Which is your region public health department? We are still required to maintain social distancing and masks where you can't maintain social distancing So right Q lines were on rights masks are still going to be required unless something changes If all the sudden we get to 90% vaccination rate Doug Ford sticks to his word and says that well measures will be relaxed Then obviously we will have some measures, but that hasn't been Hasn't happened unfortunately, so for both of those events the current protocols will remain unless something changes in society Can you share with us any details about what's going to be happening with the action theater? This question was about the action theater building It's the old I works triple tour of theater building where we had days of thunder and SpongeBob and all that and What are the plans for the future? So? I'll go back to my earlier answer about the future and that's wait and see I can't comment on the future Future projects or what what the future may hold things are constantly changing and Well, we have some some plans for that building. I can't show that those are Currently one side it's a haunt, right? That's right That brings me I should comment on the Halloween hunt So any of our indoor attractions for haunt will not be operating obviously because we can't accommodate those mass crowds indoors So we're modifying our program this year to expand the scare zones in the park And you've probably seen some of that coming out now We were fairly short window to get that stuff out in the park and we can go on going hard and fast to try and get it ready All right next question right here All right So my question is Canada's Wonderland. We have a lot of roller coasters obviously 17 in them a lot more than many other parts We have a lot of lot rides a lot of really unique rides, too but Canada's Wonderland has obviously, you know with a very high attendance every year And a lot of the rides that we have not just the older rides But it seems like some of the newer rides Black rides tend to have fairly low capacity and that's affected point times and you know It's appealing like you need to get a fast lane in order to be able to have an enjoyable day when it's busy So does Canada's Wonderland when they're planning to put new attractions or new experiences in consider the impact that capacity of that attraction have ensuring that there's enough capacity for people in the park So the last question was regarding new attractions and capacities and how we Accommodate large crowds when we add new attractions When we choose a new attraction there's several elements that go into that. What's our target audience? Is it families? Is it teens? Is it young kids? We can try and satisfy a diverse group of customers obviously So that's one thing the next thing is the cost how much money do we have to spend? Obviously, we didn't have a full operating season this year. We're not planning out any rides next year We're gonna do the restaurant and try and reduce Our wait times in the food areas We all feel like we're underserved on the food side of the park compared to some other parts So unfortunately, we can't build everything to satisfy everyone The we have a little saying that comes around that we don't build the church parking lot for Easter Sunday We have a lot of Easter Sundays in the park here through the summer The last three weeks of August is our peak season and many of you avoid that season. I'm sure just for that reason So while we do try and satisfy the need for high capacity rides, it's not always possible So I can say we try our best, but we also have other things other elements to satisfy Whether they be cost or target audience So the question was is Canada's why are they implementing a vaccine passport? Requirements or vaccine certification requirement at this time. No, I can't say what the future will hold Public health may change their requirements for that I know that when the indoor dining rules change this week next weekend You will need to show proof of vaccination to enter an indoor dining space in the park So that'll be back by cafe or marketplace. Currently posters restaurant. Is it take out only at this point? So Is there So the question was regarding the planned hotel so back in 2016-17 something like that. We had started plans to build that hotel down at the corner of Rutherford road and 400 That project has been put on hold As far as I know, it's definitely at this time. So there are no plans to revive it at this point While all the architectural engineering is complete the zoning changes are complete That project could be picked up pretty quickly and easily and put into construction But at this time Is it true that because of government restrictions Canada's wonderland is unable to get an RMC coaster? Question was because of government regulations or restrictions the Canada's wonderland is Not permitted or allowed to have an RMC coaster The Ontario government the TSA, which is the regulatory agency that oversees the medical devices in the province They don't have any Restrictions regarding what type of attraction is installed. The only restriction that they have is regarding budget jumps in the province All other attraction types are permitted as far as I know the province and RMC coasters would be one of those So there's no restriction against it. It could be could be pursued Right over here. Um, first of all, where are you sitting near the ice cream? I can see you back there Gardening garden it Yes, I The question we have over here that Five of us are wondering is will the new dining hall have a stage? And eventually like yeah, like some of the bigger ones and other you know the parts do have Like So the question was the new restaurant for next year will it have an entertainment Element or venue or stage inside the building at this time. We're not considering a permanent Stage feature in the building The intent is to make it multifunction so that we can change it for a group Function or we can change it for a Halloween event or a Christmas setup Um, so we will have infrastructure in the building to accommodate entertaining But we're not going to have a full blown stage in green room and and lighting and Just something for some sort of entertainment. Exactly. And we'll be able to accommodate that indoors or outdoors Okay, next question over here What do we think we're going to do different for this winter fast this year season later last season like a different rides open this year or Anything would be different The question was about winter fast and any changes for winter fast for this year So we are considering some changes. They haven't been confirmed yet. So unfortunately, I can't talk about them We're looking to try and grow the footprint, but that hasn't been confirmed yet When we grow the footprint that means we may be able to add a ride or two or another building or two. So I don't I don't want to say that that's what we're doing until it's confirmed the first one Okay, next question right here To what extent does Canada's Wonderland like have its own personnel Maintaining its ride versus having let's say the manufacturer The question was about maintaining the ride equipment in the park and what percentage of the equipment is maintained by in-park personnel versus manufacturers We maintain the rides. I would say 100 percent We don't rely on manufacturers for any of that maintenance While they do support us on the engineering side if we need to make a modification or an improvement Obviously, we go through them to assist us in that But all of the maintenance is done on site. There are some things that we do send off site to be Perhaps sandblasted or or or dipped For repainting, but we do that with lots of different things Okay, next question This was another question about the future So The question was about uh potential for bringing back Classic names or original vintage names of some of the rides while that may be possible I can't say whether that'll happen or not. I can imagine it will at some point, but um Let's wait and see All right next question right here Yes, so my question was uh So in recent years, uh Vekoma has introduced these uh new trains for instead of over the shoulders trains It's As part ever considered replacing the trains on flight deck with the vessel's train trains Please say yes The question was regarding uh flight deck and the Vekoma new style trains Will Wonderland ever consider that so it's kind of a question about the future and I You know my answer All kidding aside, we have explored those options with the Poma and other vendors. Um, so that is something that we do have um On a burner on a back burner And one day that may happen it but After we can see it Does anybody have a delorean? Yeah, does anybody have a But yeah, I can't comment on the future because we don't have any plans for it this time But it is something I'd like to see the practice on me too Like that does suck. I'm sorry It's not for everybody. I understand that The harder you are the harder it is on your head. Yes, it's a headache So next question is up here and before I go back here people who've already asked if there any people who've not asked a question yet Who wants to jump in the queue at this time? Cool Ken go ahead um This is not about the future It's about the past You brought up three very awesome ride parts out of the depths of the basement To go into the meat little museum story there Are those that all that survive of the original ones that were in the basement that we saw 10 years ago? Or are those just the ones that did when we when we got the full tour of the mountain 10 years ago We saw the character carousel down there and at the time it was either Well, you know the the main body of the carousel is gone, but we kept all the ride parts We don't know why we didn't crush them, but they're still here three of them survive Up he that were brought up, which is I love I think it's fantastic to see that Are the rest of them still in existence? So the question was about the the original character or the the hanover berry go around if you remember that name The characters on that ride do they do they all still exist and they do they're all the rest of them are still in the mountain We don't have a plan for them right now I'm glad that we held on to them for the museum Or they it's not a museum, but a 40th anniversary store. I guess it's easy. Yeah, it's a great. It's a great Lovis way to check it out and climb in the trolley and you don't gotta scooby much It's fantastic. I think you guys did a great great job with the wall Those western has kids But I know I didn't know those were all that were captor of you know, they were still they the others still survive So that's that's good to hear. No, they're all still there right in hindsight I wish we'd held on to more things like that to be able to put on display at times And with that in mind, maybe we'll do that for the future if anything else comes out of it I do have one more first timer right over here. Um, is there anything that kind of happened in Wonderland's past that like you was I don't know to worry about like you would personally go back on Almost something we wish we'd done there. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you Question was is there anything in Wonderland's past that that we wish we'd done differently and Over 40 years. There's lots of experiments. There's lots of things that have been tried and I like to think that all the things that you do either as a person or as a company help make you what you are now so whether good or bad the Taking along the path to where you are now So I don't I don't have any regrets. I consider them learning experiences and You only get stronger through your through your learning experiences either as a company or as an individual, so I hope that I don't have one as an exam for it. Unfortunately. That's okay Okay, we're going to take Aldo and then Brandon and then we might have time for one more Sure Peter um the last event that ace had here you mentioned that um Um You were supposed to get another ride that fell through and you went with soaring timbers Are you able to share with us the ride that didn't come or is that confidential? Oh Um The question was uh when story timbers came in it was a it was a late uh late decision and we needed to to get it in um And I've drawn a blank. I'll look sorry. I can't remember what it was but We had we had to react and we put in what we did so Um That's okay. No problem. Uh next question Before speed city raceway was built Um, it looked like there was a a helicopter launch pad in that area. Is that what it was? question was about the location of speed city raceway and The park's early days before speed city raceway. There was a helipad there When the park was built the park was built in a remote should say remote It was in a in an area the In the powers field it was from from the city center. The nearest hospital was over in richmond hill The uh, the nearest restaurant outside the park was on the highway. Um, but uh, There was a helipad. It was a function helipad yet And dignitaries would come on occasion and land their helipads Is that like you still have that somewhere in the park or is that gone? No, no, there's no There's no helicopter landing site. I mean the The guest parking lot could be modified if there was an emergency. We needed to land a an orange air aircraft that could happen in that space, but Yeah, there's no permanent helipad All right, I have two questions that you probably may not be able to answer The first one is fireworks in 2022 Okay, there was two questions the first one was about fireworks for 2022 the plan is to have fireworks again in 2022 on the long the long weekends Either the holiday or the sunday night victoria day or labor day Because the victoria day, labor day, sunday holiday, and uh, candidate of course So that that will remain the show may change The square footage on the on that hillside is going to get smaller It's not going to be gone, but it will be smaller. So some of those elements will change the show hasn't been rewritten With that in mind yet, but that is the plan to bring the show back now if cove is still here hopefully it's not Um, I can't say whether the fireworks will continue if we're still in a COVID precautionary condition The other question was about themed music in the themed areas of the park I don't have an answer for that. Unfortunately. I don't know There when the park was new there was themed music in the themed areas and through the paramount years that sort of went away We tried to cater to The masses with popular music good or bad and I imagine we're going to stay with that course for now Kudos for the all-canid playlist on the video guys. We open. Yes. Yes. We noticed it Okay, uh time but possibly last possibly last Okay, we'll take one more after this Uh, so right up here, luke. Um, not a question. I just wanted to Extend my gratitude and thanks to you and your team for doing a crazy job On keeping our rides in tip-top shape Some rides are running like they've never run since they were first installed like vortex is flying this year Like everything is just top notch and I just wanted to extend my thanks and everyone else who's been enjoying the rides Okay, um, so talking about food Great food. Excellent food. Um, way kind of food It's been I think a lot of people will agree that for various reasons food lines have been pretty long uh with the new army hall or restaurant or whatever it's going to be called coming in next year and Is it having the app available? And also, I believe theater fair is going to be going cash free next year if that affects Canada's wonderland Yes, or no But is has there been consideration against the question of futures about moving towards mobile ordering for food using Uh, the cell phone using the app because that's one thing that I think is a big hole in the food service experience here So the question was about uh speed of service at our food locations. Um, first part of the question was increasing capacity and while we we get a lot of Comments on increasing number of pos stations or mobile app What our biggest? Colonel right now is our capacity We don't have enough production capacity in the food units to produce the food fast enough to get it out onto the Under the counter to get it into your hands So by adding more point of sale locations or mobile pickup All we're doing is creating a bigger line So we need to increase our kitchen capacity to get the food out Especially during the lunch rush and the dinner rush So that is our goal over the next several years is to increase that capacity and in trying to get the food produced faster So that the wait times are not as long Some parts have gone down the road of adding mobile mobile ordering under the guise of You can get your food faster, but the kitchen doesn't grow to keep up All you're doing is putting more people in queue So We've decided not to go the mobile order week yet Until we can get our capacity up and once we get our capacity up then we can offer more points of sale Whether it's mobile or countered service. Does that make sense? All right, that's all uh, we're gonna do if you have any other questions i'll stick around here for a few more minutes Okay, thanks
