How much does my family love Knott's Berry Farm? ALOT! And this summer they have a brand new ride that we can't wait to try, Voyage to Iron Reef. We are so excite to be invited to visit on June 13th and ride it. If you want a peak follow me on Twitter (@EliseCD) or the hashtags #KnottsIronReef and #NewAtKnotts on that day. Or better yet go down to the park and get a look at it in person it's open now.

Voyage To The Iron Reef - Takes guest on a thrilling journey into the depths of the boardwalk to fight the Kraken queen.The spectacular new 4D ride feature 10 interactive scenes filled with menacing sea creatures and many hidden surprises that react to the freeze blasters controlled by the guests on board. Every rider earns a score which makes every trip to Iron Reef a competitive repeatable adventure.

There are also two new shows this Summer at Knott's.

Blockbuster Beagle!...on ice  - Charles M. Schulz Theatre - Snoopy and his Peanuts buddies "go Hollywood" bringing Walk of Fame glamour, dazzling movie lot escapades and California excitement to a brand new ice show adventure. Join Snoopy and our World-class ice skating stars at the Charles M. Schulz Theatre for this amazing new production!
June 13 - August 23 No shows on Wednesdays

Vertical Impact & Vertical Impact Geared Up Show - Vertical Impact presents the ultimate blend of extreme stunts with high flying acrobats performing a one of a kind performance perfect for the entire family! The fun continues after dark with Vertical Impact, Geared Up! This high energy show is set to the most popular songs of today, combining everything from trampoline stunts, bmx bikes, skaters, dancers, and aerialists. Every show ends with an informal meet & greet for the guests with the entire cast on stage.
June 13 - August 23 No shows on Mondays & Tuesdays

Of course we'll be hitting all our old favorites too, Montezooma's Revenge, Coast Rider, and Camp Snoopy's Sierra Sidewinder. Finally a trip to Knott's isn't the same without a meal at the restaurant and by meal I mean CHICKEN POT PIE and a slice of berry pie. I recommend eating after you are done riding the roller coasters.

Knott's Berry Farm Camp Snoopy 30th BDay #KnottsSummer



Knott's Berry Farm has invited me and my family to come celebrate Camp Snoopy's 30th birthday. Even though Camp Snoopy is only 30 he's had a little work done, a revitalization, if you will. They have also revamped The Calico Mine ride. I can't wait to see all the improvements, my old favorites and, of course, have some chicken pot pie!

CAMP SNOOPY will introduce three new rides built by Zamperla.

 Charlie Brown’s Kite Flyer invites campers to “fly a kite” with Charlie Brown and soar above the 
land’s winding paths and babbling streams – but watch out for the kite-eating tree! This 32-
passenger adventure allows guests to sit side-by-side on 16 swings for a spin that whisks riders 
up to 18 feet above the ground. As the tree rises, good ol’ Charlie Brown is revealed upside 
down and all tied up in kite string! Charlie Brown’s Kite Flyer will replace Snoopy Bounce. 

 Pig Pen’s Mud Buggies lets tykes climb aboard their very own all-terrain vehicle for an 
adventurous ride around the High Sierras. Six four-seater ATVs will spin, bounce, and bump up 
to 24 guests at a time, while Pig Pen looks on from his center perch. Pig Pen’s Mud Buggies will 
replace Log Peeler. 

 Linus Launcher recreates that classic Peanut’s moment when Snoopy grabs Linus’ blanket and 
launches him on a wild ride. On Linus Launcher, guests lay on one of twelve “blankets” as they 
fly round and round. Up to 24 guests lay side-by-side while Snoopy launches them up almost 10 
feet in the air. Guests will enjoy a Woodstock’s-eye view of Huff ‘n Puff, The Grizzly Creek 
Lodge, and all of Camp Snoopy below! Linus Launcher will replace Charlie Brown’s Speedway. 


Knott's has also done a major refurbishing of the CALICO MINE ride. It now includes dozens of new 
richly-detailed animatronic figures, state-of-the art lighting, audio, and all-new special effects. The attraction’s rustic wooden loading platform has been refreshed and now includes a “peek-in” similar to those 
found throughout Ghost Town, offering guests windows into the rich mining history of the 1850s on their way toward boarding the mine train car. Improvements have also been made for disabled guests looking for ADA accommodations.

I'll be live tweeting our day at the park on June 28th. You can follow the tweets with #KnottsSummer or come down and join the fun!

I have any official relationship with them.  I have a relationship with GigaSavvy, for whom I create original editorial content.

Knott's Camp Spooky


Last weekend my family was invited to visit Knott's Camp Spooky, usually known as Camp Snoopy. Camp Spooky is a daylight non-scary Halloween event for kids ages 3-11 every weekend in October.

Join in the fun by coming in costume. Your child can participate in the costume parade, see the Creepy Crawler Cave (where naturalists will share their critters), Find your way through a hay bale maze, collect treats in the scavenger hunt, and of course enjoy all the rides and shows!

It was a great day, and while my daughter and husband enjoy a little scare with their Halloween festivities I was pleased to be goose bump free.
