KALEIDOSCOPE<br />
SUPER TOWER<br />
SERVICE<br />

The “Orient-Zauber” figure-of-eight<br />
kiddie track<br />
ride from Karin & Josef<br />
Diebold from Augsburg<br />
offers a new service.<br />
In the course of the redesign<br />
of the large paybox<br />
wagon, the so-called “Pipi-<br />
Box”, or “wee-wee box”<br />
was created. It is a spacious<br />
kiddie toilet and a<br />
nappy changing room.<br />
According to the Diebold<br />
family, the new service is<br />
very well received. ■<br />

partner Tina Madalschek, and<br />
daughter Emilia<br />
The “Silberturm” Drop Zone<br />
Tower, built by SBF-Visa,<br />
changed ownership last<br />
year. After the Herbstplärrer<br />
in Bamberg, Matthias Mölter<br />
from Coburg took over the<br />
major family ride from Manfred<br />
Zehle Jnr. from Munich.<br />
The construction has now<br />
gone into operation under<br />
management of the new<br />
owner and sports a new<br />
name.<br />
According to Mölter, he had<br />
taken over the ride “in a very<br />
well looked after condition”,<br />
and redesigned it into the “Super<br />
Tower” during the winter<br />
break by repainting the centre<br />
trailer, the paybox and the railings<br />
in steel blue. The new tarpaulin<br />
below the platform is<br />
also blue, and features the<br />
new name “Super Tower” in<br />
striking yellow and red rimmed letters on its front side.<br />
Moreover, new decoration elements, a new paybox<br />
sign and mirror strips for the lighting pillars were<br />
added. Due to many additionally mounted LED lightcapped<br />
bulbs, the “Super Tower” is now superbly<br />
illuminated after sundown. Redesigning was completed<br />
by the precautionary replacing of parts typically<br />
subject to wear, and by overhauling the electrical<br />
equipment. After test runs in Kassel and Neustadt near<br />
Coburg, Matthias Mölter’s newly purchased ride was<br />
officially inaugurated at the Spring festival in Coburg.<br />
On the request of the previous owner, the ride had<br />
once been equipped by the Italian manufacturer with<br />
a larger paybox/operator stand and an additional platform.<br />
Due to additional padding for the restraints having<br />
been installed on the seats, children from six years<br />
of age can safely partake of the ride without any risk.<br />
A number of ride programmes, with a freefall from a<br />
height of 17 metres as well as a “jumping effect” – not<br />
offered by the high free fall towers – provide a lot of fun<br />
for both young and old passengers. The ride can also<br />
be manually controlled and is 'gentle on the stomach'.<br />
In Coburg, it was noted that many children enthusiastically<br />
took repeat rides, shouting cheerfully, especially<br />
during the “jumping effect”. Building up and dismantling<br />
the compact construction, with its small<br />
ground measurements of 14 x 7 metres, is accomplished<br />
easily and without the need of a crane in just a couple<br />
of hours. Elevating the tower requires 8 metres of<br />
free space on the left side however. The gondola accommodates<br />
16 people and the ride’s electrical power<br />
is approximately 35 kW. Due to both its being easily<br />
built up and dismantled without a crane and its compact<br />
dimensions, the complete construction can be<br />
loaded onto the centre trailer, and is highly suitable for<br />
smaller events and city festivals. After its successful<br />
première in Coburg, the “Super Tower” will be presented<br />
at, among other venues, in Lüdenscheid, Dingolfing,<br />
Halver, Mettmann, and Gießen, as well as a number<br />
of Kirchweih events in Franconia.<br />

There is some news of a classic family ride leaving<br />
Germany; the “Fliegender Teppich” from the<br />
Landwermann-Hohmann firm was now sold to<br />
Ukraine.<br />
The Zierer construction, built in 1982, has been under<br />
the ownership of Landwermann-Hohmann and toured<br />
throughout Germany – mainly in the notrth – since<br />
2006. In particular, the construction’s regular appearances<br />
at the Hamburg Dom events, as well as its flying<br />
visits to other parts of Germany – such as the Regensburg<br />
Dult in Southern Germany or the Havelberg<br />
Horse Market in Eastern Germany – will live on in<br />
memory. After the sale, the “Fliegender Teppich” will<br />
be at home in the distant Ukraine; or to be more precise,<br />
a tourist region on the Crimean peninsula, where<br />
small Lunaparks have been attracting locals and<br />
tourists during the summer for some years now. ■<br />
JAGUAR<br />
Text & Photos:<br />
Kai Morawetz<br />
After Konrad Ahrend from Peine/Schmedenstedt<br />
had taken over the “Schlager Express”,<br />
built by Cosmont, from Peter Arens from Dortmund<br />
in the spring of 2010 and had converted<br />
it into the “Jaguar Express”, he parted with his<br />
cult Mack ride “Jaguar Bahn” last November.<br />
The new owner is Benny Welte from Rostock, who<br />
founded his own showman operation with this ride.<br />
Even though the “Jaguar” is a 52-year old Mack poled<br />
switchback, consisting of more than 900 – partly very<br />
heavy individual parts – and is held together by some<br />
400 bolts and screws, Benny Welte's long-standing<br />
dream of owning his own ride came true with this<br />
“workhouse”, featuring a wooden beam drive system.<br />
Benny Welte learned the showman trade in his parent's<br />
business, who toured the “Hot Wheel” dodgem<br />
track and various confectionery booths. Although<br />
Benny Welte did not have any experience with round<br />
rides, he managed the first “real” build up for the première<br />
at the Spring Festival in the Mecklenburg town<br />
of Ribnitz (between Rostock and Stralsund) without<br />
outside help after only one trial build up. Due to it having<br />
been perfectly operated, the ride was immediately<br />
well received by the visitors in Ribnitz. Currently<br />
there are plans for a number of improvements such as<br />
the restoration of the gondola lighting and the purchase<br />
of a new baggage van.<br />
During the current season, Benny Welte will present<br />
the “Jaguar Bahn” not only at Volksfest events in<br />
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, but also, among<br />
other venues at the Pfingstmasche in Haldensleben,<br />
and the Schützenfest in Bad Sachsa.<br />

Due to construction works, there will probably be<br />
changes in the visual appearance of the station<br />
forecourt during the Freimarkt events of 2012.<br />
This does not apply to the small area in front of the<br />
Bremen main station, where traditionally a number<br />
of showman sales and gastronomic booths are<br />
placed, but to the adjoining section, as the WFB<br />
Wirtschaftsförderung Bremen GmbH has sold this<br />
property to the Achim Griese Treuhandgesellschaft<br />
on behalf of the city of Bremen. The Hamburg property<br />
developer, specialising in retail outlets and<br />
shopping centres, will apply for a building permit as<br />
early as this year, with construction being planned<br />
to begin in the second half of 2012. “As gateway to<br />
the city centre, the station forecourt will receive a<br />
new appearance and a new perspective,” Joachim<br />
Lohse, Bremen Senator for the Environment, Construction<br />
and Transport, commenting on the conclusion<br />
of the contract. The plan provides for a twopart<br />
building complex being built on the 5,580<br />
square metre area, crossed by a public footpath<br />
running towards the city centre. In addition to three<br />
basement levels (two of them functioning as an underground<br />
car park accommodating 320 vehicles)<br />
it will have 7 floors boasting about 40,000 m 2 of gross<br />
floor space each. While the 1 st basement, ground<br />
floor and the 1 st floor are reserved for retail outlets,<br />
gastronomic operations and service providers, the<br />
eastern part of the building has already been let to<br />
an international hotel operator, who will offer 315<br />
double rooms of both five-star and three-star standard.<br />
The latter will certainly be particularly interesting<br />
for non-resident Freimarkt visitors, as they<br />
can thus sleep comfortably within walking distance<br />
to the Freimarkt.<br />

SOUND FACTORY<br />

Norman Vogt<br />
To this day, Austria’s<br />
old hand in the trade<br />
highly enjoys working<br />
at the shooting<br />
gallery. Many visitors<br />
often come to the<br />
shooting gallery only<br />
because of her, as<br />
several generations<br />
of visitor families<br />
have now shot at<br />
“Tante Elsa’s”, and<br />
want her alone to<br />
load the gun and attend<br />
to them. Despite<br />
strokes of fate, such<br />
as the untimely death<br />
of her son at the age<br />
of 64 – tragically on<br />
the very day of Else<br />
Schlader’s birthday –<br />
she has never lost<br />
her love for her profession.<br />
■<br />
At the Mannheim Maimess, Uwe<br />
Müller from Neckarshausen presented<br />
his new ball throwing<br />
booth “Sound Factory”, a 10-metre<br />
long games booth he had<br />
bought from Werner Thelen from<br />
Karlsruhe.<br />
For Uwe Müller the beginning of this<br />
season marked his 21 st year as an independent<br />
showman. He not only<br />
owns several game booths such as<br />
another ball throwing booth and a dart throwing<br />
booth, as well as a Kugelstechen side stall, but also<br />
a stall where garlic-laced baguettes are prepared,<br />
which he tours throughout Baden-Württemberg and<br />
Rhineland Palatinate. Due to his openness and honesty,<br />
Uwe Müller is a very popular guest on the fairgrounds.<br />
It seems that the word “no” is not in his vocabulary.<br />
His quick-wit is also well proven; when<br />
asked why he had now purchased a larger attraction,<br />
he answered, “we had a new addition to the family a<br />
couple of months ago. So, as the family has expanded,<br />
naturally I had to also expand my business!” ■<br />

ROUND UP<br />
Text & Photo:<br />
Wolfgang Payer<br />
On 1 st May, traditionally one of<br />
the days with the highest attendance<br />
in the Vienna Prater,<br />
the trial run of a new arrival to<br />
the Prater took place; namely a<br />
restored “Round Up”, which<br />
has found a new home on site<br />
38.<br />
The ride was brought to the<br />
Prater by showman Karl Güldner.<br />
Therefore, a “Round Up” ride is<br />
once again built up at the Prater,<br />
after a break of many years. After<br />
several changes of ownership,<br />
the ride, originally built by the<br />
Fähtz firm in 1974, had last been<br />
toured throughout Germany under<br />
the management of the Bügler<br />
firm. Karl Güldner has installed<br />
a new control system and a new lighting system<br />
from the LSM firm, the latter providing the attraction<br />
with an impressive appearance, particularly<br />
at night. The construction operates at a speed of<br />
17.5 r.p.m., which turned out to provide the desired<br />
so-called “feel good factor” during various tests. ■<br />

In addition to new “Smashing Jump” constructions,<br />
there were further new arrivals to be encountered at<br />
the spring events in Belgium and Holland.<br />
In Rotterdam, for example, the “Ice Jet” Alpine Bob from<br />
the Ropers brothers celebrated a successful début. The<br />
construction, built in Italy, is magnificently<br />
designed and themed in<br />
the tradition of the “Petersburger<br />
Schlittenfahrt”, with a stern looking<br />
lady observing visitors from above,<br />
as the dominant front element. This<br />
year, the “Ice Jet” will also appear<br />
at events at, among other venues,<br />
Geleen, Tilburg, Hoorn, Weert,<br />
Bredaand the “Winterland” in Hasselt<br />
(Belgium). In Belgium, the “Extreme” Ranger – built<br />
by ARM in England and imported from Ireland as a used<br />
ride – was presented as a season novelty by Albert Vermeylen.<br />
Moreover, the “Nightmare” construction was a<br />
new Ghost Ride for Belgium. The Gary Lamer-Ropers<br />
family purchased the ride in Holland, and parted with<br />
their “Jurassic <strong>Park</strong>” Ghost House.<br />

They are a living legend:<br />
the Rolling<br />
Stones – probably the<br />
best-known and foremost<br />
rock band in the<br />
world, sporting their<br />
unique and memorable<br />
logo; the extended<br />
tongue. Now, there<br />
is also a ride completely<br />
dedicated to<br />
the “Stones” theme, a brand new looping “Street<br />
Fighter” from Technical <strong>Park</strong> called “Rolling<br />
Stones 360°”.<br />
The images of the four band members were<br />
immortalized on the front area of this thrill attraction,<br />
along with the four first names mounted to the lighting<br />
pillars. The owner of the ride is the northern Italian<br />
showman, Ronnie Lagrein, who also came up<br />
with the unusual theme. “The ‘Street Fighter Revolution’<br />
is a perfect addition to the large number of<br />
swings already touring the Italian fairgrounds,” said<br />
Ronnie Lagrein. White and red (the colours of the<br />
<strong>English</strong> flag) are the predominant colours of the ride,<br />
which is also equipped with LED lighting technology.<br />
As rides are mostly operated without a backflash<br />
in Italy, at least the flags of the island were put up at<br />
fence level in the rear section. The “Rolling Stones<br />
360°” was introduced to the public at the spring<br />
event in Trevano, where it was very well received.<br />
Another “Street Fighter Revolution” is currently being<br />
built and will be delivered to the French showman<br />
Baptiste Cedric in a couple of weeks' time. ■<br />

BAYREUTH VOLKSFEST<br />
Text: Helmut Bresler<br />

Karl-Heinz Lammel<br />
The town of Bayreuth, boasting 7,500 citizens<br />
and located in the Upper Franconia region of<br />
Bavaria, is world-famous for its Richard Wagner<br />
Festival, held at the festival theatre on the<br />
Grüner Hügel every year. Among the town’s<br />
largest companies are the Gebrüder Maisel<br />
(brewery), British American Tobacco, Steingraeber<br />
& Söhne (piano manufacturer), and<br />
the Zapf firm (manufacturer of prefabricated<br />
houses and garages). Since 1 st May, there has<br />
been a new mayor in Bayreuth, Brigitte Merk-<br />
Erbe (Bayreuther Gemeinschaft), whose duty<br />
it will be to open the 103 rd Volksfest with the<br />
traditional tapping of the keg, in Bastian<br />
Schuhmann’s new beer tent on the 25 th May.<br />
The Volksfest is organised by the “Bayreuth<br />
Marketing und Tourismus GmbH”, energetically<br />
supported by the some 20-member “Bayreuth<br />
section” of the South German Showman Association.<br />
The first Volksfest event was held outside the<br />
town walls in 1910 to mark the 100 th anniversary<br />
of the town’s affiliation to the Kingdom of<br />
Bavaria. The Bayreuth Section was founded in<br />
1923. In this founding phase, the “Schlachthofwiesen”<br />
fairground at the Unteren Au caused<br />
the showmen many problems. Every year, three<br />
major festivals were held in this area; sales fairs<br />
with adjoining amusement sections at Mariä<br />
Lichtmess, or Candlemas at Pentecost, and on<br />
the Feast of St. Martin. In 1955, ten years after<br />
the Second World War, fourteen Bayreuth showmen<br />
– among others, Anton Reil, Klaus Heitmann,<br />
Elias Braun, Alfred Emmrich, Adolf Braun,<br />
Anna Kürzdörfer and Karl Mayer – revived the<br />
section. The reason why they founded this section<br />
instead of their own association or society<br />
was due not least to their renewed connections<br />
to the Nürnberg umbrella association. Klaus<br />
Heitmann was elected First Section Chairman.<br />
The young interest group saw its main task as<br />
improving the image of the long-neglected<br />
spring festival, which had been held at irregular<br />
intervals only up until 1955. In 1964, the fairground<br />
was relocated for the last time so far, due<br />
to a through route highway being built at the old<br />
location. The modern, of some 22,000 m 2 fairground<br />
has been the venue for both the spring<br />
festival and the large Volksfest to this day. Since<br />
1968, the event has been held at the same time<br />
as the Erlangen Bergkirchweih. Rescheduling<br />
the Volksfest to the earlier date during the Pentecost<br />
school holidays resulted in repeated complaints<br />
by the girls’ boarding schools adjoining<br />
the fairground – and that is no joke! A dark chapter<br />
in the Bayreuth Volksfest history was an accident<br />
on the “Tokaido-Express” in 1972, which hit<br />
the headlines in the national media. At the time<br />
of the incident, there were even discussions<br />
about stopping the Volksfest immediately which<br />
were, however, dismissed. The 1980s marked<br />
the beginning of the era of the event’s national<br />
appeal. Every year, the applications filled sever-<br />
WELCOME LETTER<br />
SPECIAL SECTION<br />
Dear showmen at the Bayreuth Volksfest,<br />
I would like to heartily welcome<br />
you to the town of Bayreuth and I<br />
am looking forward to the special<br />
and thrilling atmosphere you and<br />
your attractions will provide us<br />
with during the 11-day event,<br />
which I have always found highly<br />
fascinating. This year, there will<br />
be a unique mixture of “wellknown<br />
and proven” classics, as<br />
well as spectacular novelty attractions.<br />
I am proud to be able to<br />
welcome showmen from all over<br />
Germany to Bayreuth, coming<br />
from, among others locations,<br />
Munich, Augsburg, Dortmund,<br />
Düren, Stuttgart, Nürnberg and<br />
Kaiserslauten, providing, together<br />
with our Bayreuth showmen, a<br />
lot of hustle, bustle and partying on the fairground. A hearty welcome also<br />
goes out to our new beer tent operator, Bastian Schuhmann, who committed<br />
considerable investment into building up a brand new beer tent in<br />
Bayreuth.<br />
I have been a city councillor for the “Bayreuth Gemeinschaft” for 10 years; I<br />
am deeply rooted in my home town, and was elected as Mayor in late March.<br />
A family-oriented policy is of high importance to me. In my opinion, the kiddie<br />
programme is an indispensable feature at the fairground, and we should<br />
make a concerted effort to further develop it in the coming years. I am looking<br />
forward to meeting you all and to celebrating my Bayreuth Volksfest together<br />
with you.<br />
I earnestly hope for a good time and pleasant fairground weather, and I wish<br />
you all good financial results.<br />
Warm regards<br />
Brigitte Merk-Erbe<br />

caused a furore: In 1961,<br />

Fürth/Bavaria presented by<br />
for the first time his establishment<br />
with a complete<br />

greeted with enthusiasm<br />
by the public. A year later,<br />
the Widmann era commenced,<br />
which continued on<br />

for several decades,<br />

An aerial view of the<br />
Bayreuth Volksfest, 1980<br />
and was also the roots for the “Miss-Volksfest-<br />
Wahl” contest that has proven popular to this<br />
day. In 2001, a long-standing dream came true<br />
for the Bayreuth Section, when the old entrance<br />
to the fairground was replaced by a new, modern<br />
and functional entrance gate. Another<br />
Bayreuth novelty in 2001 was the appearance of<br />
Uwe Hölzgen from Bonn with his “Bayernzelt”<br />
beer tent. He had to quit in the 2004 season however,<br />
as he was not able to produce the required<br />
documents and was replaced by Gerhard Widmann<br />
from Freising. To mark the centenary in<br />
2009, the Oxenzelt tent from the Murr firm<br />
opened its gates. In 2011, the organisers succeeded<br />
in holding the Upper Franconia exhibition<br />
– a consumer fair – simultaneously and in direct<br />
vicinity of the Volksfest for the first time,<br />
which proved a benefit for both sides.<br />
At the 49 th Spring Festival at Easter 2012, twenty-five<br />
showman attractions, including<br />
a large Ferris Wheel as<br />
well as the “Super Hupferl” cult<br />
ride, enticed visitors to the fairground.<br />
Having successfully<br />
participated in the Spring Festival<br />
in the last few years, Bastian<br />
Schuhmann made his<br />
début as beer tent patron at the<br />
large Volksfest this year. Moreover,<br />
a legend celebrated a<br />
birthday – Sepp Kainz has<br />
been participating in the<br />
Bayreuth Volksfest for 30 years<br />
and feels almost at home there.<br />
Another 'must' is the procession<br />
at the beginning of the<br />
event, which was revived some<br />
years ago and has steadily<br />
increased and enticed an<br />
increasing number of participants<br />
ever since.<br />
With his new tent, Bastian<br />
Schuhmann will present the largest Volksfest operation<br />
and a landmark. In a strong effort to make<br />
a successful début, he has put together an attractive<br />
music programme with regional crowd<br />
pullers. He will also continue with proven special<br />
events, such as Senior's Day, Family Day and the<br />
Miss Volksfest Contest. The organiser has not<br />
only shown, but also proven interest in long-term<br />
engagement: there will no longer be any self-service<br />
fridges at the snack booths and beer in bottles.<br />
Moreover, no hut or village gastronomy will<br />
be contracted. The selection of rides will leave<br />
nothing to be desired. The “<strong>Park</strong>our” (Aigner) will<br />
provide a speedy over-the-top ride. At its third<br />
venue, “The King” (Zinnecker) with looping effects<br />
and an impressive lighting system hopes for<br />
a strong visitor attendance, just as was the case<br />
in Frankfurt and Passau earlier. The Diebold family<br />
from Augsburg, who have participated at<br />

Bayreuth for decades, will offer<br />
three classic rides, a dodgem track,<br />
the trendy “Breakdance”, and the<br />
kiddie ride “Orient-Zauber”. Visitors<br />
loving Darkrides will have an impressive<br />
choice; namely the “Black<br />
Hole” (Schierenbeck) – a richly<br />
curved track ride with a large dome<br />
– along with the “Spuk” Ghost Ride<br />
(Sipkema-Lüthens) with coaster effects,<br />
shining with renewed beauty<br />
and sporting new decoration. Despite<br />
being a classic family ride, the<br />
“Schlittenfahrt” (Burgdorf) will invite<br />
its visitors to a speedy ride experience.<br />
The show booth sector will be<br />
represented by the “Mäusestadt”<br />
(Brambach-Luch), which joined the<br />
tour under new management only<br />
at Easter this year.<br />
With the “Anpfiff” (Göhring), a popular<br />
ball-throwing game will be presented<br />
again, and the “Veteranenclub”<br />
(Grauberger) has lost nothing of its fascination<br />
with the youngest visitors. The “drink and<br />
food” sector will be very well represented by firstclass<br />
local participants, such as the “Kaffeehaus”<br />
(Korn) and the classic menu at the “Imbiss<br />
Widmann”, as well as at “Täubers Imbiss” –<br />
to name but a few – and will leave nothing to be<br />
desired. All in all, visitors will be able to enjoy<br />
some 60 showman operations. Moreover, two<br />
brilliant fireworks displays will mark the opening<br />
and the closing of the 103 rd Bayreuth Volksfest.<br />

PROMINENT CELEBRITIES<br />
Alfred Emmrich (85) is one of the illustrious names in the history of the<br />
Bayreuth Volksfest. He has formed the section almost all his life, having<br />
being the Section Chairman for almost 25 years. On the occasion<br />
of the 50 th anniversary of the Bayreuth Section in 2005, he presented<br />
a 456-page chronicle, meticulously exploring events that occurred<br />
both before the public gaze and behind the scenes. He was succeeded<br />
as Chairman by Dieter Reil in 1995, and since 2001 Michael Korn<br />
has been the incumbent Chairman of the Bayreuth Section. Unforgettable<br />
partners from the town authorities are, among others, Jo Schumacher,<br />
head of the Tourist Office and Fairground Director Werner<br />
Geißler. Today, the head of the Marketing and Tourism Office, Jan<br />
Kempgens, as well as Fairground Director Marc Ermer, are in charge<br />
of the Bayreuth Volksfest – and very successfully so too! ■<br />

FRONLEICHNAMS<strong>KIRMES</strong> OBERHAUSEN-STERKRADE<br />
The event that combines traditional with modern attractions<br />
is a popular meeting point for the residents,<br />
who begin partying even on the opening<br />
Wednesday evening. In former times, this day was<br />
called “Fair Christmas Eve”, as the showman attractions<br />
remained closed except for the gastronomic operations.<br />
Nevertheless, there were always thousands<br />
of visitors already on the march. This was indeed a very<br />
special evening for the Oberhausen residents. However,<br />
they were quickly joined by an ever increasing<br />
number of “non-resident visitors”, and it was not long<br />
before many guests wondered why the rest of the fairground<br />
was still closed. The is the reason that the Fronleichnamskirmes<br />
opens as early as the Wednesday afternoon<br />
these days, and this additional opening day<br />
has developed very well. True, the Oberhausen residents<br />
no longer celebrate by themselves, but now assuredly<br />
celebrate along with guests from near and far.<br />
There are always fervent discussions about the quality<br />
and effectiveness of fairground posters, yet it must be<br />
said that the Oberhausen fairground poster is well<br />
worth talking about every year. It may indeed well be<br />
the most beautiful fairground poster in North-Rhine<br />
Westphalia – perhaps even all over Germany – and is<br />
modified somewhat every year to show the current ride<br />
and Funhouse attractions. Even by design alone, the<br />
poster succeeds in whetting the appetite for a visit to<br />
the city centre fair. After the aforementioned happyhour<br />
in Albert Ritter's beer garden, the “Fronleichnamskirmes<br />
2012” will be officially opened in the presence<br />
of the Oberhausen authorities and the fairground<br />
organisers. As is tradition, many Volksfest organisers<br />
from the neighbouring cities will also be present at the<br />
opening. However, during the traditional stroll across<br />
the fairground they will not merely 'talk shop' – sociability<br />
stands decidedly in the foreground.<br />
Saturday will once again be entirely dedicated to the<br />
youngest fairground visitors. Under the motto “Hits for<br />
Kids”, younger visitors will be able to enjoy numerous<br />
special actions and entertainment, such as a kiddie<br />
make-up event and stilt-walkers forming animals from<br />
balloons. This is not only popular with children. A brilliant<br />
fireworks display on Monday evening will – unfortunately<br />
– herald the end of the Fronleichnamskirmes.<br />
For the second time, Sina Illman from the Oberhausen<br />
city authorities is in charge of the organisation and the<br />
fairground layout. This year, she was once again able<br />
to put together an attractive fairground with five novelties<br />
for Sterkrade, and a ride première for North-Rhine<br />
Westphalia. Let’s take a theoretical stroll across the<br />

fairground before the real fun begins, setting out at the<br />
“Bellevue” Ferris Wheel (Bruch), which will once again<br />
be built up on the car park next to the Technisches<br />
Rathaus. On the site located further along in the direction<br />
of the Eugen-zur-Nieden-Ring, the “Amazonas”<br />
Walkthrough construction from Agtsch will make its<br />
début, and in front of the Hirschhügel, Deinert's “X-<br />
Factor” will provide visitors with swinging fun. Further<br />
along and in front of the bunker, the “Große Geisterbahn”<br />
from Schütze will be built up. Turning right towards<br />
the Hirschhügel standing in front of the Ghost<br />
Ride, visitors will encounter the dodgem track from<br />
Petter, flanked on both sides by two novelties for Oberhausen;<br />
Goetzke’s “Rocket” and Oberschelp’s “High<br />
Impress”. An indispensable must in this location is the<br />
large “Raupenbahn” from Steiger/Buchholz. The<br />
“Breakdance” (Bruch) and the large water ride “Auf<br />
Manitus Spuren” (Heitmann / Schneider) will once<br />
again be located in proximity to the Hirschhügel. With<br />
Kaiser’s “High Energy” built up on the small market, a<br />
spectacular major ride will return to Sterkrade, and<br />
Kreft’s “Love Express” will await the visitors on its regular<br />
site. The redesigned Neumarkt will be prominently<br />
occupied this year by the “Voodoo Jumper” from<br />
Schäfer celebrating its première, and Bruch’s “Spinning<br />
Racer” will be built up in the middle of the market.<br />
The lengthways sides of the small market will accommodate<br />
Markmann’s large swing, “Nessy”, Wendler’s<br />
“Wellenflug” and Schütze’s “Schloss Dracula” Ghost<br />
Ride. In the direction of the main railway station, visitors<br />
will cross the Zilianplatz, where visitors will encounter<br />
the family ride “<strong>Circus</strong> <strong>Circus</strong>” (Bruch), the “Diamond”<br />
dodgem track (Hartkopf/Osselmann), and the<br />
“Revolution” (Kinzler/Nickel). The débutante still missing,<br />
Schmidt’s “Transformer”, will cause furore in front<br />
of the station.<br />

HALVER<br />
Text:<br />

On 8 th June, the Halver Fair, attracting<br />
a large number of locals<br />
and guests from the surrounding<br />
region to the small town in the<br />
Märkisch district in North-Rhine<br />
Westphalia every year, will once<br />
again open its gates for four<br />
days. Punctually at 6 p.m. the fair<br />
will be officially opened with the<br />
traditional tapping of the keg by<br />
the Mayor accompanied, naturally,<br />
by music.<br />
The rides will make their rounds in<br />
the city centre and the tempting<br />
aroma of roasted almonds and<br />
popcorn will be wafting through the<br />
streets even on the opening Friday<br />
afternoon. For decades, the Halver<br />
Fair has been celebrated where a<br />
fair event belongs; not on the outskirts<br />
of the city away from the hustle<br />
and bustle of daily life, but right<br />
in the city centre, where it can give<br />
full reign to its essential fascination,<br />
and evoke strong emotions.<br />
This fairground tradition is consciously<br />
preserved in Halver. During<br />
building operations and construction<br />
work to change city<br />
squares, the fair event has always<br />
been taken into consideration.<br />
Flower tubs and street signs are<br />
simply relocated for the fair event.<br />
Some 120 showman attractions<br />
have been selected and engaged<br />
out of the more than 400 applications<br />
received, clearly proving that<br />
the Halver Fair is held in high esteem<br />
among the showmen. As a result,<br />
it is not always easy to make a<br />
perfect choice and to avoid an excessive<br />
“over-deployment”. An increase<br />
in the number of rides does<br />
not necessarily result in higher visitor<br />
attendance and a related increase<br />
in turnover. Halver will once<br />
again present a classic family fair<br />
with a carefully chosen number of<br />
ride and funhouse attractions, offering<br />
something for everybody.<br />
The highlight of this year’s fair will<br />
be the “Crazy Coaster” (de Voer).<br />

An indispensable attraction is the “Breakdance” from<br />

generation. Other attractions presented will be the<br />
“Drive In” from Schmidt, the Musik Express from Scheffer,<br />
Krameyer’s “Big Monster”, Mölter‘s “Street Style” Miami,<br />
the “Sky Trip” from Hartmann, Scheele’s “Top-<br />
Spin”, the Simulator from Hortmeier and Mölter‘s “Super<br />
Tower” family Freefall Tower. Moreover, Göbel’s Ferris<br />
wheel will once again provide the visitors with a beautiful<br />
view across the city centre.<br />
On Sunday, there will be the popular 1-Euro-Day at the<br />
drink booths, and Monday will be the designated Family Day with considerably<br />
reduced prices. The Halver Fair will be closed with a fireworks<br />
display on Monday evening.<br />

WUPPERTAL MEGA-<strong>KIRMES</strong><br />
A LOOK FORWARD<br />
Text: Michael Petersen<br />
From 15 th to 18 th June, a “mega” fair will be<br />
held all around the stadium at the zoo. Yet despite<br />
the epithet “mega”, it may not actually<br />
be so “mega” after all, compared to the Düsseldorf<br />
or the Crange events. Yet by Bergisches<br />
Land standards, it probably deserves<br />
this title.<br />
The name of the event has caused a great furore<br />
in Wuppertal. The local press seized upon the<br />
name, and for the first time representatives from<br />
all Wuppertal daily newspapers, the local radio<br />
station, and even the national Bild tabloid,<br />
contacted the Wuppertal Showman Association.<br />
The preliminary short reports in the newspapers<br />
have already aroused the Wuppertal residents’<br />
curiosity. A survey of the new site and the size of<br />
the fair, carried out by the Westdeutsche Zeitung<br />
prior to the event, showed that the new concept<br />
has been well received, and that Wuppertal residents<br />
still love to go to “their” fair, even though<br />
they have so far preferred to visit the large events<br />
in Haan, Gevelsberg, Schwelm and, naturally,<br />
the Rheinwiesen in Düsseldorf. An event of similar<br />
quality is now to be held also in Wuppertal.<br />
Volksfest events are certainly the best – and effectively<br />
free – advertisement for the city itself,<br />
and Wuppertal is in need of a high-quality fair<br />
like this, as there are already more than enough<br />
boring and low-quality city festivals lacking any<br />
flair. The fair is organised by the Wuppertal<br />
Showman Association, presided over by Chairman<br />
Peter Fuhrmann. For a long time there had<br />
been a search for a new location for the event<br />
within the city borders. Due to Wuppertal’s topographical<br />
location, this was quite a challenge,<br />
and all the more so, as the overall demands were<br />
not exactly of a low order. The site was to be centrally<br />
located and to be familiar to every Wuppertal<br />
resident. Moreover, it had to have a good<br />
infrastructure, optimum public transport connections,<br />
and a sufficient number of car parks in<br />
the direct vicinity. Being centrally located on the<br />
B7 federal highway (the city’s arterial road) and<br />
providing several free spacious car parks all<br />
around the stadium, the site at the zoo meets<br />
these requirements perfectly. The fairground is<br />
also perfectly visible from the city's cable car; after<br />
all, some 80,000 people use this means of<br />
transport that is surely unique throughout the<br />
world. In addition, the stadium directly adjoins<br />
the Wuppertal zoo, where the little polar bear<br />
Anori, is currently a new crowd favourite, having<br />
attracted some 17,000 visitors to the zoo during<br />
the Easter period. The fairground is also easily<br />
accessible by public transport. According to a<br />
new advertising concept, large motif posters will<br />
be put up at all cable car stations, which will be<br />
supplemented by 500 posters throughout the<br />
suburbs. Advertisements will not only be placed<br />
in all daily newspapers, but will also be extended<br />
to regional media. For the first time thousands<br />
of flyers will be distributed, and currently negotiations<br />
are being undertaken with the local Wuppertal<br />
radio stations for promotion. Two additional<br />
actions are to entice an even larger number<br />
of visitors. On Friday evening, visitors will be<br />
welcomed by a magnificent fireworks display,<br />
with specialists from the Nico firm producing the<br />
latest effects in the evening sky. Monday will be<br />
the Family Day with considerably reduced<br />
prices. Stilt-walkers and other perambulatory<br />
acts will offer additional surprises to the visitors.<br />
By the way, the date of the event has been fixed<br />
to fit perfectly into the league schedule of the<br />
Wuppertal sports club. Moreover, hardly any<br />
competing fair event will be held in the direct<br />
vicinity on this weekend. This latter fact was duly<br />
reflected in the number of applications received,<br />
from which Peter Fuhrman put together an attractive<br />
fair event, including spectacular ride attractions<br />
as well as a large multi-storey Ghost<br />
Ride. In addition to the stadium grounds, the organiser<br />
also hired the cable car station forecourt,<br />
where the chain ride from Fuhrmann and the<br />
large kiddie ride (Kretz) will make their rounds.<br />
With the “Geisterstadt” from Fellerhoff built up on<br />
the stadium grounds, a multi-storey attraction<br />
will appear in Wuppertal for the first time after a<br />
long break. Moreover, Wingender’s “Air Crash”<br />
will be the first-time appearance of this type of a<br />
ride in the cable car city. Oberschelp’s “High Impress”<br />
will also make its début in Wuppertal. Other<br />
rides presented will be the “Hip Hop Fly” from<br />
Noack and Kreft‘s “Love Express”, and younger<br />
visitors will be able to enjoy the “Miniskooter”<br />
(Fellerhoff), the “Saturn-Helikopter-Flieger”<br />
(Bauer), and the “Walking-Waterballs” from<br />
Kretz. The ride contingent will be complemented<br />
by a harmonious and varied mixture of concession<br />
stalls, and well-kept restaurants will invite<br />
visitors to linger and enjoy. Additionally, there<br />
will be many seating possibilities on the bank of<br />
the Wupper, and the fairground is to be decorated<br />
with rows of colourful pennants. The “mega<br />
fair” is definitely to become the meeting point for<br />
the locals and many non-resident visitors. One<br />
can only hope for pleasant weather, and for a<br />
faultless reception of the new fair event. ■<br />

Clear the ring<br />
for “Freddys <strong>Circus</strong>”<br />
On Thursday 26 th April, Freddy<br />
Zinnecker’s new multi-storey<br />
Walkthrough construction<br />
“Freddys <strong>Circus</strong>” was officially<br />
inaugurated at the Maidult in his<br />
home town of Passau, and just a<br />
day later it was a matter of “Clear<br />
the ring, ladies and gentlemen!”<br />

Freddy’s <strong>Circus</strong><br />
tion is now the next step in the<br />
showman career of Freddy Zinnecker.<br />
When the former owner,<br />
H.P. Maier, put the largest Funhouse<br />
in Switzerland up for sale<br />
Having already acquired experience with the (built by Barbisan, Italy) last year, there were many<br />
“Hopser” and the “Frisbee” ride, as well as the interested parties. Eventually, Freddy Zinnecker<br />
family’s Funhouse attractions (“Geistervilla” and succeeded in purchasing the construction. He immediately<br />
commissioned a concept for a new<br />
“Halloween”), the 4-storey Walkthrough construc-<br />
theme – and the family council quickly agreed on<br />
the theme “<strong>Circus</strong>”! This decision was not simply<br />
a matter of whim, as the Zinnecker family’s roots<br />
26
with the new theme, also including the name sign,<br />
was drawn up by the Afaw firm. The acute observer<br />
will not miss the portrait of the original big top of<br />
the circus of Freddy Zinnecker's grand-parents on<br />
the construction.<br />
Before visitors reach the Funhouse, they have to<br />
negotiate the experience course in front of the attraction.<br />
Inside, visitors are confronted with all types<br />
of effects and obstacles from the 1st to the 4 th<br />
Singing, playing the accordion<br />
and inviting visitors into<br />
“Freddys <strong>Circus</strong>”: the moving<br />
clown in the front area<br />
can be found in a circus family. Freddy’s grandparents<br />
for example, still toured their own circus,<br />
“Medrano”. The overall concept for the redesign<br />
“Freddy <strong>Circus</strong>” was<br />
inaugurated by Pastor Martin<br />
Fuchs in Passau. Left: Alwin<br />

Causing laughter among<br />
the public: the dancing waste<br />
bin in front of the construction<br />

trick fountains, rolling and<br />
whipping floors, air jets, rotating<br />
discs, vibrating floors, rolling<br />
platforms, rotating tunnels with a<br />

a rotating wheel, moving belts,<br />
sliding floors, cracked floors,<br />
“scrubbing brushes”, a suspension<br />
bridge, and a rolling<br />
course, they come at last to a<br />
large spiral slide through which<br />
the entire experience runs back<br />
down again (alternatively, they<br />
can use the staircases). At<br />

The swinging clown<br />
ground level, visitors are awaited by another rolling<br />
barrel and a wet finale, due to air humidifiers and<br />
fountains that spurt unexpectedly. “We guarantee<br />
100 percent fun!” said Funhouse owner Freddy<br />
Zinnecker. Fun is also provided to Volksfest visitors<br />
who do not enter the construction. For example, in<br />
throwing refuse into a seemingly unspectacular<br />
waste bin in front of the construction, they are in for<br />
quite a surprise! Moreover, the portable clown’s toilet<br />
outside the construction causes a lot of laughter.<br />

KIDDIE RIDES<br />
MÄRCHENLANDEXPRESS<br />
In addition to the coasters<br />
“High Explosive” and “Die<br />
wilden 50er”, as well as a couple<br />
of snack and drink booths,<br />
the showman enterprise Vorlop<br />
VSB from Hannover has also<br />
been operating the “Märchenlandexpress”<br />
since 1995.<br />

the Rostock Easter Market<br />
The kiddie railway with a 600 mm gauge was built<br />
by the Geräte- und Fahrzeugbau Erwin Melzer<br />
from Schnedinghausen/Lower Saxony in 1968. The<br />
drive system of the locomotive (type 901) was<br />
delivered by the Paul Schwingel firm from Leverkusen,<br />
which had specialised in the construction of<br />
park tracks at that time. Previous owners were,<br />
among others, the showman company Jost from<br />
Worms, which presented the Märchenlandexpress<br />
mainly on the fairgrounds in Mannheim and the<br />
surrounding region. The largest version of the kiddie<br />
railway has ground measurements of 10.55 x<br />
19.55 metres. Putting the locomotive and the four<br />
wagons on the track requires a crane. Despite the<br />
robust construction and various extensions,<br />
relocating the kiddie railway requires only one<br />
transport vehicle. At the Rostock Ostermarkt, the<br />
kiddie railway has become a popular landmark on<br />
the Universitätsplatz. During operation, the typical<br />
rattling of the train and the clanging of the wagons'<br />
bells can be heard from quite a distance. The train,<br />
when setting into motion, makes the kiddies' eyes<br />
shine. Due to the size of the train, adults can also<br />
take a ride in the Märchenlandexpress. During the<br />
ride, passengers always enjoy the animated fairytale<br />
figures to be seen around the construction. The<br />
railway can also be built up with a backflash with<br />
running lighting. Moreover, a tunnel is available, however,<br />
this could not be built up at the Rostock Ostermarkt,<br />
due to limited space. Power is transferred to<br />
the locomotive engine via a “3 rd rail”, which is isolated<br />
by a cover and mounted to the outside of the inner<br />
rail, and carbon brushes. Due to this innovative<br />
power supply solution, the kiddie railway no longer<br />
requires the otherwise usual mast in the middle of the<br />
construction, from which power used to be transferred<br />
to the locomotive via a collector and a trailing<br />
cable. Additionally, it was possible to enlarge the former<br />
track circle by laying out running parallel straight<br />
track sections.<br />

original condition<br />
storage on a property for some years. Accompanied<br />
by Christian Bader, in charge of stage technology<br />
in Graz, Christian Loos finally headed to Kaiserslautern<br />
to inspect the nostalgic ride. They first met<br />
up with the owners of the ride, the Weiss family, and<br />
then with the object of desire, the very Caterpillar<br />
Ride. Christian Loos recalls, “We found vehicles and<br />
baggage vans that had, apparently, not been<br />
moved for a long time. On opening the wagon doors,<br />
we were immediately enchanted by the play of<br />
colours of the decoration elements. That was exactly<br />
what we had been looking for!” Both sides agreed<br />
upon a purchase price,<br />
and just a couple of<br />
days later the ride was<br />
loaded onto an<br />
articulated lorry and<br />
transported to an old<br />
industrial building in<br />
Graz, Austria, where it was restored piece by piece,<br />
adapting the Caterpillar and guaranteeing the performance<br />
on stage required, among others, the renewal<br />
of the pillars and expert welding at various<br />
sections. The Caterpillar Ride's appearance on the<br />
Graz opera stage went smoothly.<br />
In the meantime, Christian Loos researched the history<br />
of the attraction. Thanks to the support from<br />
Hans-Joachim Berweiler from Germany, he was<br />
able to find out a number of details. Even though<br />
there are no written records for the years 1926 to<br />
1953, the ride was apparently built by Fritz Bothmann<br />
in Gotha in 1926. Between 1934 and 1954, the<br />
ride may well not have appeared at any Volksfest<br />
events, due to restrictions imposed on the showman<br />
industry during the Third Reich. In 1953, the<br />
Cologne showman Wilhelm Schiffer purchased the<br />
ride and toured it in Cologne and the surrounding<br />
region. It is said that Schiffer was a patriarch of the<br />

briefly sat in the paybox, played the Radetzky<br />
March (usually chasing away the visitors), smoked<br />
two cigars, and then disappeared again. Only after<br />
that were the staff allowed to play Rock’n Roll<br />
records. Another Caterpillar owner discovered was<br />
Günther Bremer from Lüneburg, who owned the ride<br />
from 1970 on. Under his management, the ride was<br />
completely overhauled in 1971 or 1972, including<br />
the redesign of the rounding board, chaises and the<br />
lighting system. It is not known whether or not the<br />
ride was directly purchased by the Weiss family later<br />
on. At the end of its unusual stage appearance in<br />
Austria, the ride was once again put up for sale.<br />
According to Christian Loos, a private buyer from<br />
abroad has now been found.<br />

years ago, technically highly talented showman signed and built several roofs in different forms thus<br />

and virtually sensational at that time was the<br />
completely non-retractable roof frame equipped<br />
with a hydraulic lifting device loaded on the centre<br />
trailer. Moreover, a new paybox, also equipped with<br />
a hydraulic lifting device, was installed above the<br />
centre trailer’s front axle. A crane was installed for<br />
the assembly of the arms, which was later removed<br />
by the subsequent owner, Frank Exner.<br />
After further modifications carried out by Günter<br />
Topf, such as the large “Holiday Star” name sign<br />
and an awning above the entrance, the Waltzer ride<br />
was hardly recognisable by the late 1980s. Topf<br />
surprised the public with another Musik Expressstyle<br />
change and a completely new visual redesign<br />
of the “Holiday Star”, presenting the ride with a new<br />
rounding board and a wide, straight entrance with<br />
two corner pillars. After German reunification, an<br />

property. From August 1990, he toured the “Hollywood<br />
Swing” and shortly after that a “Polyp”. Later<br />
on, he converted his enterprise, touring a ballcannon<br />
for a couple of years.<br />
Shortly after having been put into storage, the “Holiday<br />
Star” was resurrected and operated by Günter<br />
Topf’s brother Norbert for two years. In 1992, Günter<br />
Topf eventually sold the construction to Frank<br />
Exner, who has remained true to the ride to this day.<br />
“The public continues to loyally return to the Waltzer<br />
ride, and it has even regained popularity among<br />
young people these days”, said Frank Exner, and<br />
further expounds “if the favourable visitor attendance<br />
of the last few years continues, our son Marcel<br />
will take over the ride in the future. As it has been<br />
very well designed and expertly built by Günter<br />
Topf I do not have any misgivings about it. We have<br />
now been touring the ride for twenty years without<br />
any major technical problems. Despite a<br />
special test procedure, the ride was<br />
successfully approved by the TÜV a couple<br />
of weeks ago”. Relocating the ride requires<br />
two transport vehicles (1 centre<br />
trailer and 1 baggage van), and it can be<br />
easily built up by Frank and Marcel within<br />
two days. Due to the wide, straight entrance, the<br />
ride has ground measurements of 16 x 21 metres,<br />
a height of 5.20 metres including the name sign,<br />
and electrical requirements of 54 kW.<br />
Originally the rotational speed of the motor was<br />
controlled by a water starter, which was replaced<br />
by a drive position regulator later on. A counter shaft<br />
gear transfers the rotation to the pin rim pinion. The<br />
ride’s sixteen gondolas with high headrests accommodate<br />
three children or two adults each. Due<br />
to the slanted track, the gondolas rotate on their<br />
own axis during the ride.<br />
By a clever shifting of the upper body, the rotation<br />
of the gondolas can be further increased, thus leading<br />
to a very racy ride. The light strips are equipped<br />
with a series of lights (from GDR times) and standard<br />
capped bulbs.<br />
Even though they considerably increase power<br />
consumption, Frank Exner deliberately waives a<br />
change to modern, power-saving LED lights.<br />
“Thanks to the “warm” light from ordinary light<br />
bulbs, nostalgic rides still provide a very special<br />
flair to this day. That’s why I will use the existing lighting<br />
and do without LED lighting for as long as possible.”<br />

After a perfect opening weekend, a cold spell<br />
ultimately resulted in the number of visitors at the<br />
Hamburger Frühlingsdom (23 rd March to 22 nd April)<br />
decreasing by 400,000 vis-à-vis the previous year.<br />
Nevertheless, visitor attendance amounted to a<br />
fantastic 3.6 million visitors.<br />
The Dom visitors were able to encounter many novelties,<br />
not only among the major attractions but also<br />
among the kiddie, sales and gastronomic operations.<br />
There were as many as four Dom debutants from the<br />
Funhouse and Ghost Ride sector, such as Rasch’s<br />
“Alpenhotel”, which impressed many a visitor with its<br />
height and design as it celebrated its German première.<br />
Other novelties were the “Krumm & Schief Bau”<br />
(Hartmann), “Burg des Grauens” (Burghardt) and the<br />

A LOOK BACK<br />
German première: the<br />
“Alpen-Hotel” from Rasch<br />
compact “Halloween” Ghost Ride (R. Rasch). Together<br />
with the other Ghost Ride and Funhouse<br />
constructions, this sector was probably somewhat<br />
excessively represented. The event was<br />
largely enhanced by various new arrivals from the<br />
gastronomic and kiddie ride sector, with the large<br />
number of first-time approvals being not only<br />
surprising for the visitors, but also for the regular<br />
participants. The Dom skyline was characterised<br />
by towering attractions, such as the “Fünfer-Looping”<br />
(Barth), Steiger Ferris Wheel, “Konga”<br />
(Küchenmeister), “Sky Dance” (Nülken), and the<br />
“High Energy” (Kaiser). In the special area, the<br />
“Drachenmarkt” made its first-time appearance,<br />
and the first “Dom-parade” held, as always, on the<br />
first opening Wednesday was very well attended.<br />
With more than 14,000 downloads, the new “Dom-<br />
App” for mobile phones, providing an interactive<br />
Dom site map in addition to information on every<br />
single showman attraction, was also very well received<br />
according to the organiser.<br />

Freezing temperatures took numerous Easter<br />
Volksfest events in North-Rhine Westphalia by surprise.<br />
At temperatures that were sometimes lower<br />
than at Christmas time, the fair events suffered<br />
from a noticeable reduction in visitor<br />
attendance. While it was “merely” cold<br />
on Saturday and Easter Sunday, there<br />
was continuous rain on the otherwise<br />
strong-turnover Easter Monday. As a result,<br />
only a handful of tough fairground<br />
visitors dared to attend one of the many<br />
Easter events in the region. Due to<br />
unsettled weather also after the Easter<br />
days, many showmen suffered heavy<br />
losses.<br />
out in a 'blinded' zigzag course that offers visitors new<br />
impressions every year. Due to regular attractions being<br />
relocated at regular intervals and new attractions<br />
being engaged, every Easter Fair provides a new overall<br />
image, as well as exciting hours. All the top-end and<br />
corner sites on the fairground were prominently<br />
occupied. Despite the new, additional escape routes<br />

eing appropriately but discreetly signposted, they<br />
were still clearly visible for every visitor, yet the overall<br />
visual appearance was not affected by these safety<br />

Wuppertal<br />
The Wuppertal Easter Fair on the fairground on the<br />
Carnaper Straße was also held form 31 st March to 15 th<br />
April. The event was organised by the IG Schausteller,<br />
along with the marketers and their Chairman, Michael<br />
Müller. Unfortunately, they did not succeed in engaging<br />
sufficient ride and funhouse attractions to fill the<br />
whole Carnaper Platz. The only attractions built up<br />
were the two local dodgem tracks from Fuhrmann and<br />
Hartmann, the “Jaguar Trip” from Hudalla and Jansen’s<br />
“Breakdance”. With the “Rainbow” (Klinkerfuß) at least<br />
one major ride could be contracted for Wuppertal. The<br />
younger visitors enjoyed the kiddie rides from Kretz, a<br />
trampoline, and “Walking Waterballs”. Unfortunately,<br />
the organisers had forgotten to announce the two<br />
Family Days on the posters put up in the city area.<br />
Bergheim<br />
To mark the occasion of the new large Bergheim Fair,<br />
the rides made their rounds for the first time in spring<br />
from 7 th to 15 th April. The event was held at the Aachener<br />
Tor, on the site where the Hubertusmarkt takes<br />
place in autumn. On the last opening day, there was<br />
also an open shopping Sunday and a spring festival in<br />
the city centre. Large parts of the area were occupied<br />
by attractive fairground attractions from all sectors,<br />
which were built up along a classic circuit course. The<br />
large Bergheim Fair was officially opened by Mayor<br />
Maria Pfordt at 6 p.m. on Saturday, and a brilliant fireworks<br />
display painted the Bergheim evening sky in the<br />
most dazzling colours at 9 p.m. The Family Day on<br />
Thursday enticed visitors with price reductions of up<br />
to 50 percent, and a second fireworks display marked<br />
the end of the fair on the Sunday evening. The following<br />
ride and funhouse attractions were built up at the<br />
first large Bergheim Fair: Lupp's dodgem track, the<br />
“Adventure Shuttle” simulator, Bügler’s family coaster<br />
“Silbermine”, the “Experience” (v. d. Marel), Musik Express<br />
(Rasch), “Breakdance” (Piontek), Gormann‘s<br />
“Liberty Wheel” Ferris wheel, and a mini-dodgem<br />
(Thoma).<br />
Hagen<br />
The Hagen Showman Association laid out the Easter<br />
Fair on the Otto-Ackermann-Platz (from 7 th to 15 th April)<br />
with a good mixture of well-known and popular attractions,<br />
as well as a sprinkling of novelties. This year, the<br />
event was very intensively advertised. In addition to<br />
striking posters of various sizes,<br />
daily radio commercials were a<br />
particularly effective means of advertising.<br />
More than 60 commercials<br />
were aired by the Hagen and<br />
the Ennepetal radio stations. The<br />
two local radio stations broadcast<br />
live and interesting reports from<br />
the fairground even during the<br />
build up and throughout the event.<br />
Three special events attracted additional<br />
numbers of visitors to the<br />
fairground. On the Family Day with<br />
reduced prices, younger visitors<br />
enjoyed free kiddie make-up events as well as balloons.<br />
A fireworks display was held on Friday, and during<br />
the “Ladies Time” on Saturday, women were offered<br />
rides at fares reduced to just 1 Euro. The organiser<br />
had relocated the regular participants to give the<br />
fairground a completely new appearance. Presented<br />
on the course circuit were: the dodgem track from<br />
Alexius, Eul’s Musik Express, the “Schwanenflieger”<br />
from Hartmann, Deinert‘s “X-Factor”, the “Shaker” from<br />
Tröger/Foulon, the “Breakdance” (Klinge), “Tal der<br />
Könige” (Bügler), simulator (Zinnecker), and the Ferris<br />
wheel from Vallentgoed. Unfortunately, the latter was<br />
built up on the lowest site of the fairground, where it<br />
was not able to present its striking height to full advantage.<br />
The kiddie ride “Sahara Rally”, which was<br />
also presented at the event, has changed ownership:<br />
Gerd Meeß handed the ride over (originally built by<br />
Reinhold Pistorius from Saarbrücken), to his daughter<br />
Franziska and her husband Daniel Gusik, who had already<br />
overhauled the ride during the winter break,.<br />

The Showman Association retained the successful layout<br />
of the Seilersee-fairground also at this year’s Easter<br />
Fair (from 7 th to 15 th April). The winding circuit offers<br />
a number of top-end and corner sites, which were all<br />
appealingly occupied. Due to empty coffers, the laying<br />
out of paving on the fairground that has been<br />
planned for many years now, is apparently no longer<br />
a matter for discussion. Visitors, it seems, could not<br />
care less – after all they do not know the fairground any<br />

Coming from Holland<br />
to Bochum: “No Limit” and<br />
“Beach Party”<br />
Layout mistake in Aachen:<br />
a sales booth was put up “in<br />
the face of” the multi-level ride<br />
more appealingly than in previous years. A classic<br />
fairground organ playing opposite the entrance gate<br />
got the public tuned into the fair event. The Family Day<br />
with reduced prices, kiddie make-up events and<br />
Punch and Judy shows was very well received.<br />
BOCHUM<br />
In the last few years, a visit to the Bochum Easter Fair<br />
at the Castroper Straße offered very little fun. The once<br />
largest Easter Fair in the Ruhr region quickly hit rock<br />
bottom. In the good old days, there had been a large<br />
course circuit with a cross row that had always been<br />
occupied by the latest attractions, but that is a thing of<br />
the past. This year (7 th to 15 th April), in addition to the<br />
“Beach Party” – an exotic ride one can say, from the<br />
Netherlands –visitors were able to enjoy even a modest<br />
attraction, the “No Limits” that also hailed from this<br />
same neighbouring country. The major ride was<br />
presented without any decoration though, and was<br />
joined by the “Musik Express” from Krabbe, and Petter’s<br />
dodgem track. The layout of the fairground and<br />
the arrangement of the few ride attractions were not<br />
very compelling. Rather to the contrary in fact, it was<br />
rather an unappealing series of attractions placed next<br />
to each other. Particularly annoying was a heavily<br />
soiled quad track from Austria.<br />
Aachen<br />
The Öcher Bend has been a highquality<br />
event offering a large number<br />
of attractions for many years<br />
now. Many showmen already report<br />
it to be the Easter Fair with the<br />
highest turnover in North-Rhine<br />
Westphalia. Visitors entering this<br />
year’s fairground (from 7 th to 23 rd<br />
April) through the colourful entrance<br />
gate magnificently<br />
illuminated after sundown, were<br />
immediately fascinated by a terrific<br />
skyline with four attractions<br />
looming higher than 45 metres.<br />
The mega Swing “Artistico” from<br />
Köhrmann, celebrating its première<br />
at the event, was joined by<br />
the “Booster Maxxx” (Hoefnagels/Denies),<br />
“Wonder Wheel”<br />
Ferris Wheel (Bruch/Schneider)<br />
and the giant chain ride “Around<br />
the World” (v.d. Beek/Dauphin),<br />
and also the two dodgem tracks<br />
(Grass and Loosen) and the<br />
“Beach Party” Musik Express<br />
(Milz/v. d. Bosch), which rank<br />
among the event's fixtures. Moreover,<br />
the “Top Spin” from Scheele<br />
spun its passengers upside down, while the classics<br />
such as the “Octopussy” (Markmann), “Breakdance”<br />
(Bruch), “Südsee-Wellen” from Barth, “Bayern<br />
Rutsch’n” (Schierenbeck), the family coaster “Willy der<br />
Wurm” (Roos), and the “Venezianische Pferdekarussell”<br />
(Langenberg) offered family-friendly ride fun. With<br />
a sales stall bereft of decoration and light being placed<br />
directly in front of it, the horse carousel failed to make<br />
its usual visual impression.<br />
This arrangement was really very annoying! One could<br />
easily ask the question as to whether there were really<br />
no other possibilities. A ride in Bruch’s “Spinning<br />
Racer” guaranteed pure coaster fun. The show and fun<br />
sector, which enjoys a high rating in popularity in<br />
Aachen, was prominently occupied by Hinzen’s<br />
“Haunted Mansion” representing the Ghost Ride sector,<br />
along with the “Lach+Freu-Haus” (Distel), “Crazy<br />
Outback” (Hofmann/Jehn), Sturm’s “Kristall Palast”<br />
and Lemoine’s “Mäuse-<strong>Circus</strong>”. Moreover, younger<br />
visitors were able to enjoy as many as 9 kiddie rides.<br />
A total of 24 games booths, 5 shooting galleries, 1 fortune<br />
teller, 23 gastronomic operations, 14 sweets stalls<br />
and 17 sales stalls rounded off the cornucopia of attractions.<br />
The Öcher Bend was accompanied by an<br />
ample selection of special actions. A novelty feature<br />
was the “Kiddie Birthday at the Bend”, a special kind<br />
of birthday party including a programme, entertainment,<br />
and catering. The voucher booklet was Euros 14<br />
per person with vouchers for four rides in kiddie rides<br />
and free choice of two games booths. In addition there<br />
was a bag of popcorn and a toffee apple or candy<br />
floss.<br />
At the end of the party, guests were served fried chips<br />
in the red and white variations (“mayo” or ketchup) and<br />
a drink. An excellent event it was too! Wednesdays<br />
were Family Days with heavily reduced prices, and on<br />
the Ladies Day on 13 th April a free gingerbread heart<br />
was available for those of the fairer sex. On 14 th and<br />
21 st April, a music programme was presented, and the<br />
second opening Tuesday was the designated “Students<br />
Day”. On the closing day of the event the showmen<br />
thanked the public with a brilliant fireworks display.<br />

A LOOK BACK<br />
Text & Photo:<br />
Norman Vogt<br />
The Frankenthal Spring Market opened on 31 st<br />
March and closed on 9 th April, Easter Monday<br />
this year.<br />
The attractions built up on the fairground were the<br />
“Magic” (Spangenberger), “Revolution” (Kinzler-<br />
Nickel), “Shake” (Blum), “Taiga Jet” (Spangenberger)<br />
and the “Crazy Halloween” (Tedesco). The<br />
centre of the fairground was graced by a rusticstyle<br />
beer garden serving an ample choice of drinks<br />
and food. One could however have easily wondered<br />
as to why a gastronomic operation this size sold<br />
neither coffee nor a standard soft drink, like “Cola<br />
Light”! In addition to a dodgem track, there were<br />
also many, often very appealing kiddie rides. The<br />
Family Day, with fare prices usually reduced by half,<br />
was once again held in the middle of the week.<br />
Therefore, visitors were completely baffled and<br />
annoyed by a showman taking a proud Euro 2,- per<br />
ride on the Family Day, despite the fact of his presenting<br />
three kiddie rides at the same time. This<br />
was simply a cheek and an absolute “no-no”! This<br />
non-family friendly price policy has a quick effect<br />
on the event as a whole, as surely due to word of<br />
mouth alone, the event quickly gets labelled as<br />
“much too expensive, even on the Family Day”. In<br />
the end, most of the showmen (by Frankenthal standards)<br />
were quite satisfied with their turnover, which<br />
may well have also been due to the sunny weather<br />
that prevailed throughout the event.<br />

Palmkirmes in Recklinghausen<br />

In warm and sunny spring weather, the<br />
Palmkirmes 2012 was officially opened at the<br />
gastronomic operation “Zum Dorfwirt”<br />
(Bruno Dreßen), in the presence of prominent<br />
local politicians, the organisers of the<br />
Palmkirmes, as well as a large number of<br />
showmen and organisers of other Volksfest<br />
events.<br />
Due to the beautiful weather and the favourable<br />
weather forecasts for the pending opening days,<br />
there was an almost euphoric atmosphere. Despite<br />
many problems both great and small during<br />
build up, the Palmkirmes opened its gates<br />
on time without any hitches. Even though the layout<br />
of the fairground, which had been clearly<br />
changed to differ from the previous years, made<br />
a more lively impression, it also displayed a number<br />
of drawbacks. The classic Wave-Swinger<br />
site on the south side of the Saatbruch-fairground<br />
was occupied by the “Around the World”<br />
chain ride this time. Together with the “Airport-<br />
Bar”, also built up in this location for the first time,<br />
they made a very good visual impression. The<br />
high ride was a crowd puller and considerably<br />
livened up this area. As two large coasters had<br />
been contracted for the event, the “Wilde Maus”<br />
and the “Rock’n Roller Coaster” had to compete<br />
for the visitors’ favour. This may well have been<br />
too much of a good thing; all the more so given<br />
that the family coastconstituted yet another (if<br />
smaller) coaster. Due to the placement of large<br />
51
“Tal der Könige”<br />
and Wave-Swinger<br />
in Recklinghausen<br />
Fairground days<br />
in Osnabrück<br />
roller coasters, the “Diamond Scooter” had to<br />
leave its usual site and was moved slightly to the<br />
north. With the “Raupenbahn” from Buchholz,<br />
the organiser once again succeeded in engaging<br />
a classic ride. This beautiful ride truly deserved<br />
a more favourable site though. Built up as a<br />
concession however, it could not present its best<br />
visual appearance. The beautiful overall image<br />
of the Palmkirmes was marred by the new steel<br />
scaffolding with flags, showing the way to the escape<br />
routes, which could hardly be ignored as<br />
they were quite simply ugly and grossly oversized.<br />
These flags might well have been just as<br />
efficient but much more discreet if they had been<br />
hung up with the help of the showmen. Added to<br />
that, it would have been significantly cheaper.<br />
Unfortunately, this irritation could not be avoided<br />
by the organiser, as it was stipulated by statutory<br />
regulations. Deinert’s “X-Factor” swing,<br />
engaged as a short-term replacement and built<br />
up opposite the “Big Spin” novelty, was very well<br />
received. Due to the beautiful weather, financial<br />
results were highly satisfying. Naturally, they<br />
were more satisfying for some showmen and<br />
less for others. To reschedule the second fireworks<br />
display and to hold it on Friday was<br />
certainly the right decision.<br />
This year, visitors had to do without the coveted<br />
fair pin, and the large button on offer instead was<br />
not very popular. According to the organiser, the<br />
Palmkirmes continues to be a top event in spring<br />
and attracted the desired number of visitors. A<br />
number of changes have already been carried<br />
out, others are still to follow.<br />

OSNABRÜCK<br />

Ever since Osnabrück obtained<br />
the right to have a market in 889,<br />
markets were held in the city<br />
centre, the Stadtmarkt in spring<br />
and the Herrenmesse in autumn.<br />
Over the times, they developed<br />
into the present day fair events.<br />
This year’s spring event (23 rd<br />
March to 1 st April) marked the anniversary<br />
“50 Years of the Annual Fair” or the “100 th Fair<br />
Event at the Gartlage hall”. Fairground director Helmut<br />
Siemunowski from the Osnabrück city authorities<br />
chose 150 showman attractions to lay out a beautiful<br />
course circuit around the Gartlage hall. For the anniversary,<br />
visitors were welcomed by Mario Blume’s<br />
concert organ at the Bremer Brücke entrance, where<br />
they could also admire a Lanz bulldog. As a tribute<br />
to the good old fairground days, young and old visitors<br />
were able to enjoy the horse carousel from the<br />
Lesnik family, built in 1886. Other attractions presented<br />
on the fairground were the “Family Star”<br />
coaster (Albers), “Salto Mortale” (Langenberg/Gusowski),<br />
“Disco-Bahn” Musik Express (Welte),<br />
“Around the World” Ferris Wheel (Cornelius), “Auto-<br />
Discothek” dodgem track (Strohtenke), “Booster”<br />
propeller (Havermann/Spelbrink), “New World 3000”<br />
(Welte), “Gaudi Hütt`n” Walkthrough construction<br />
52
(Barth), “Breakdance” (Welte), “Phoenix” simulator<br />
(Gusowski), “Racing Cars” dodgem track (Tovar),<br />
“Haunted Mansion” Ghost Ride (Hinzen), “Power Express”<br />
Musik Express (Welte) and the “Super Cars”<br />
dodgem track (Barber). Moreover, the younger visitors<br />
enjoyed the “Spider Jump” trampoline (Welte),<br />
“Ufo Jet” (Waldmann), “Welt der Phantasie”<br />
(Wieland), kiddie chain ride (Benna), kiddie chain<br />
ride (Cornelius), the “Western Bonanza Reitbahn”<br />
(Kaiser), “Fantasy World” kiddie ride (Welte), “Jumbo-Flug”<br />
Jet Ride (Wegener), Kindertraum (Tovar),<br />
kiddie ride (Wöstmann), and the “Jungle Water-Ball<br />
Trip” (Becker). Numerous confectionery stalls, snack<br />
booths, games booths, beverage outlets and sales<br />
booths rounded off the selection of attractions. The<br />
opening tour across the fairground began at the Bremer<br />
Brücke, where the guests of honour learnt how<br />
to start the Lanz tractor. Next there was the procession<br />
of the show corps “Black Panthers”, the flag bearers<br />
from the Show Woman Association “Hasestrand”,<br />
the Weser-Ems Showman Association, as well as the<br />
Mayor Burkhard Jasper, Beer King Gambrinus, and<br />
many guests of honour. The opening ceremony took<br />
place at the “Altdeutsche Bierstube” from Heitmann.<br />
Wednesday was the designated Family Savings Day,<br />
with ride fares being reduced by 50 percent, and<br />
price reductions of 20 percent at the other attractions.<br />
Moreover, brilliant fireworks displays were held on<br />
both opening Fridays.<br />
This year, according to the local press and others<br />
sources, visitor attendance did not live up to<br />
expectations however.<br />

Due to the four beer gardens in a uniform<br />
wooden design, the Speyer Frühjahrsmesse,<br />
held from 5 th to 15 th April, almost provided a<br />
kind of Christmas Market flair.<br />
There was even a pick-up-trolley in a matching<br />
rustic-style “booth look”. A couple of visitors and<br />
showmen thought all that was missing to have a<br />
perfect Christmas Market at springtime in this<br />
cathedral town were the Christmas trees! Other<br />
visitors, however, either enjoyed the ambience,<br />
or were simply 'unmoved'. With the “XXL” swing,<br />
a first-class major ride was built up at the event.<br />
Other attractions presented were<br />
a Ferris Wheel, “Himalaya”, a gokart<br />
track, a “Hollywood” Funhouse,<br />
and a dodgem track. In<br />
addition to the official opening,<br />
free test rides were offered on the<br />
opening day. While Wednesday<br />
was the designated Family Day,<br />
the fairground was closed on<br />
Good Friday for the first time. A<br />
fireworks display, accompanied<br />
by music, once again enticed<br />
many visitors to the fairground on<br />
closing day.<br />

Right: the new “Sterndl-Alm”<br />
beer tent<br />
The Augsburg Osterplärrer (8 th to 22 nd April)<br />
suffered seriously from low temperatures<br />
during (and also after) Easter.<br />
For this reason the city council, on request of the<br />
showmen, decided to extend the Plärrer by 5<br />
days; an extension legally supported by the<br />
Augsburg “Plärrer regulations”. The regular<br />
duration of the event ended on Sunday, 22 nd<br />
April. Then there was a break of four days, and<br />
from Friday, 27 th April to Tuesday 1 st May the<br />
“extension” began. Due to beautiful spring<br />
weather throughout the 5-day extension,<br />
turnover losses previously incurred were largely<br />
made up for. The Walkthrough construction<br />
“Amazonas”, which could not stay for the extension<br />
due to another contract, was replaced by the<br />
“Hex'n Wippn” (Zehle). Plärrer novelties this time<br />
were (in addition to the “Amazonas”) the “Rio<br />
Rapidos” water ride (Kaiser) and Michael Goetzke’s<br />
“Rocket”, both of them being very popular<br />
with the public. Another novelty was the fourth<br />
Plärrer beer tent, the “Sterndl-Alm” (Diebold-Balletshofer)<br />
offering seating for 400 guests, an<br />
open kitchen, and a first-class menu. The Augsburg<br />
showmen were honoured by the advisory<br />
council for having taken disabled people on a<br />
free Plärrer tour for many years now. ■<br />

PRAGUE (CZ)<br />
A LOOK BACK<br />
Text & Photos: Ton Koppei<br />
The traditional “Matjeska Pout” Spring<br />
Fair in the Czech capital of Prague was<br />
held from 3 rd March to 22 nd April this<br />
year.<br />
With participants from the Czech Republic,<br />
the Netherlands and Germany, the 7-<br />
week event was once again very international<br />
and highly attractive in 2012. This<br />
time there were also a number of novelty<br />
attractions from local participants. For the<br />
first time, the Dykovsky firm built up the<br />
“G-Force” Booster in Prague along with<br />
the “Energy Rush” swing purchased in<br />
Denmark. The “Speed of Life” family<br />
coaster from the Novotny firm, built only<br />
in 2011, was another novelty for Prague.<br />
Numerous other novelties were also offered<br />
in the so-called “Dutch section” of the<br />
event, where first-time appearances were<br />
made by the “Spuk” Ghost Ride from Sipkema,<br />
the “Booster Maxx” from De Voer<br />
and the imposing “Inversion” from Albert<br />
Ordelman. With the arrival of the brand new “Jumper<br />
Maxx”, it was possible to celebrate a real première<br />
in Prague. Further attractions from the Netherlands<br />
were, among others, the “Super Mouse”, “Snow<br />
Jet”, “Sound Machine”, “Pirate River” and the<br />
“Around the World” tower ride. The Czech showmen<br />
once again presented successful attractions, such<br />
as “Superbowl”, “Pirat”, “Breakdance”, a Ferris<br />
Wheel, Double-Ranger, “Enterprise”, and various<br />
Ghost Rides. After a break of several years a camel<br />
ride had returned to Prague once again, and as<br />
usual, visitors were able to enjoy two examples of<br />
the typical Czech “Loch Ness” ride with attendant<br />
ball game during the ride, which ranks among the<br />
all-time classics in Prague. Another fixture of many<br />
years at the event was the Italian family coaster from<br />
the Czech Staubert firm. Now the construction,<br />
which used to appear in many East European cities,<br />
has been permanently built up for several years now<br />
up in the Prague city park behind the Vystaviste<br />
exhibition halls. As usual, many Dutch showmen this<br />
year returned home already one week before the<br />
end of the event, in time for one of the major events<br />
on the occasion of the “Königinnentag”, or Queen’s<br />
Day. Visitor attendance in Prague varied a lot this<br />
time. While the fairground was sometimes crowded<br />
already early in the morning, there were hardly any<br />
visitors on other days despite ideal weather. This<br />
was a phenomenon for which the participating<br />
showmen had no explanation.<br />

In 2009, the used wagon was taken over by the Koken<br />
firm for preparing crêpes. As culinary specialities<br />
from Asia are still very much a gap in the market<br />
on fairgrounds in the<br />
north of Eastern Germany,<br />
the wagon was redesigned<br />
into the 'Oriental'<br />
snack booth, “Little<br />
China”, according to the<br />
firm’s concept, and<br />
equipped with the<br />
kitchen appliances<br />
required. The menu<br />
provides, among other<br />
delicacies, Beijing soup,<br />
spring rolls, classic fried<br />
noodles with vegetables<br />
or pork and chicken with<br />
various soy and chilli<br />
sauces, ranging from<br />
sweet-and-sour to very<br />
spicy. In the beginning, it<br />
took some time until Peer<br />
and Franziska got the<br />
knack of preparing dishes<br />
based on noodles in particular.<br />
“At the very<br />
beginning, it was not that easy. We cooked, fried<br />
and prepared noodles by the kilo until they had the<br />
right consistency and flavour,” recalls Franziska<br />
Hickmann. Thanks to the consistent quality and the<br />
excellent flavour of their Asian specialities, it did not<br />
take long until Hamberger’s “Little China” became<br />
an ‘insider tip’ in the gastro sector at the Volksfest<br />
events in Thuringia and Mecklenburg-Western<br />
Pomerania. From the very beginning, the young<br />
couple were aware of the fact that design and<br />
decoration were far from a guarantee of the success<br />
and the popularity of the “Little China” with the visitors.<br />
Consequently, they attached the highest importance<br />
to the quality of ingredients, and the fresh and<br />
appetizing preparation of the dishes. Limiting the<br />
menu to a couple of main dishes makes it easier for<br />
customers to chose. Only small quantities are<br />
prepared and then carefully kept warm in standard<br />
catering containers and so-called bain-maries<br />
(heatable water basins).<br />
These days, Franziska Hickmann and Peer Hamberger<br />
tour their “Little China” throughout the new<br />
federal states, where they are popular guests with<br />
loyally returning customers at many a Volksfest. The<br />
“Little China” has ground measurements of 6 x 3.50<br />
metres, a height of about 4 metres and electrical requirements<br />
of 10 kW.<br />

WATER RIDE<br />
After a vertical lift, an<br />
intensive drop follows with<br />
a “wet rinse” course<br />
A number of years ago a small<br />
wildlife park in the region Eifel<br />
near Cochem made itself noticed<br />
when it opened its first large ride<br />
attraction in 2004: the “Heiße<br />
Fahrt”, a coaster from Gerstlauer,<br />
was considered by many observers<br />
as the start into a new direction,<br />
although at that time it<br />
would be operated as a pure<br />
wildlife park for a while.<br />

Zum Rittersturz<br />
The two <strong>Park</strong> Managers<br />
Josef Hennes (left) and Hubert<br />
Hennes with daughter Lena<br />
The Wild- und Freizeitpark Klotten of the<br />
Hennes family originated from a dynasty of<br />
poultry and egg production, and their relatives are<br />
still operating this business to this day.<br />
After the Hennes family gave up the poultry business<br />
for various reasons, the father of both current<br />
operators, Matthias Hennes decided to purchase<br />
a number of hectares of land on the edge of the<br />
Mosel River near Coblenz to open a wildlife park<br />
and gastronomy. An extension of offers in the<br />
direction of park attractions was actually not<br />
intended.<br />
However with the takeover by Josef and Hubert<br />
Hennes in 1995, investments were made in other<br />
attractions. It was particularly the product range<br />
from manufacturer Heege that moved into the<br />
park step-by-step, providing variety particularly<br />
for the younger visitors. A distinct increase in<br />
visitors could be reached with the erection of the<br />
first large ride attraction, with which it became<br />
obvious to the young operators that this was the<br />
starting shot for further development. As a result<br />
preparations were started to extend the new area<br />
steadily over the years.<br />
60
A park of this size is unable to make funds<br />
available for high investments in novelties every<br />
year, so for this reason the further development<br />
around the coaster took somewhat longer than<br />
originally planned. Whilst the design ideas in the<br />
beginning changed over the years (the originally<br />
thought out volcano was to become a castle type<br />
of construction), the wish to extend with a water<br />
attraction remained.<br />
The new attraction “Zum Rittersturz” (German for<br />
“On The Knight Plunge”) when closely observed<br />
is not just a pure water chute ride, but goes also<br />
in the direction of a water coaster. After the<br />
unusual vertical lift comes the drop, which is not<br />
only Germany’s highest drop on a water attraction,<br />
but also exhibits the characteristics of a<br />
coaster. Additionally the use of an electromagnetic<br />
braking system on the drop and in the<br />
water outlet is not quite typical for a conventional<br />
water attraction.<br />
Although “Zum Rittersturz” is not the longest of its<br />
type, the ride itself contains a lot of features that<br />
are only found in this combination here. The station<br />
is located in the already existing structural<br />
work for the future knight’s castle at ground level.<br />
Following the entry of the passengers, the<br />
boats travel through a small Darkride<br />
section where two lovely animatronics<br />
from Hofmann can been seen (this section<br />
is to be extended in the future). After leaving<br />
the building, the lift platform is waiting<br />
to elevate the boats. This rotating lift tower<br />
is another highlight of the ride. And it’s not<br />
only the special technology that is fas-<br />
It takes 50 seconds until<br />
a boat is positioned on the<br />
vertical lift rotating in the<br />
heights from the station, until<br />
the start position is reached<br />
61
OBITUARY<br />
The opening of the ride<br />
could not be witnessed<br />
by Senior Manager Matthias<br />
Hennes. He passed away<br />
only a few days before completion<br />
on the 15 th April 2012.<br />
He was 85 years of age and<br />
leaves behind his wife Maria,<br />
2 children, 5 grandchildren,<br />
and one great-grandchild. ■<br />
The eponym is from a<br />
nearby mountain from where<br />
once a knight had fallen – and<br />
the Federal Republic of<br />
Germany was founded on this<br />
very peak in 1949<br />
cinating, but also the great<br />
view of the Mosel Valley and<br />
the region Hunsrück opposite.<br />
Slowly the ride guests<br />
in the lofty heights of the<br />
platform are pushed onto<br />
the drop whereby the small<br />
“feeder” drop brings the<br />
boat quickly to the highlight<br />
of the ride. Shortly after<br />
being somewhat braked by<br />
the first electromagnetic brake and in the process<br />
undergoing a little “hanging time” to look inward<br />
for a short time before the long drop, the ride<br />
guests then speed towards the lake, and land in<br />
the water with a huge splash. While the runoff is<br />
relatively short, there is also an electromagnetic<br />
braking system here. A ride in the water canal follows,<br />
and a small zigzag course brings the riding<br />
guests back to the station, during which time they<br />
are sprayed at by the water cannons that are<br />
available to the viewers at the edge of the construction,<br />
getting somewhat wet in the process.<br />
The boats are led very smoothly in the concrete<br />
canal (initially it was to comprise of metal), without<br />
hitting the walls – this also makes the experience<br />
“boat ride” appear comfortable.<br />
62
The Theming is Still Incomplete<br />
Quite remarkable also is the environmentally conscious<br />
use of water. The underground water tanks<br />
are filled by ground and rain water. The design<br />
steps planned are a cover for the water canal, so<br />
that it fits to the design of the low water basin. The<br />
completion of the castle construction however<br />
cannot be expected for a few years, and besides<br />
that, park management has already had thoughts<br />
about the further use of the three level building.<br />
Instead of the initially planned gastronomy operation,<br />
a large indoor play area will come into<br />
being. The building of a fast-food restaurant<br />
opposite the new attraction provides sustenance<br />
for guests in this park area.<br />

The theming wishes that<br />
have existed for years to<br />
change the unflattering concrete<br />
structural work have deviated<br />
from the originally planned<br />
volcano façade to a castle<br />
design - unfortunately the<br />
theming will still take some time<br />

COASTER<br />
The new Wing Coaster<br />
at Thorpe <strong>Park</strong> is the third<br />
B&M attraction of this type<br />
There were always certain<br />
trends as far as new seating and<br />
passenger carrier configurations<br />
for coasters. Suspended,<br />
Stand-up, Inverted – and now<br />
also the Wing Coaster, the ride<br />
next to the tracks. Following the<br />
first delivery of “Raptor” to Italy’s<br />
Gardaland, the constructors<br />
at Bolliger & Mabillard have<br />
already been able to sell three<br />
other attractions of this type.<br />
Just how established is the new<br />
seating order?<br />

Thorpe <strong>Park</strong><br />
The non roofed over<br />
station area is impressively<br />
designed<br />
The Swarm<br />
Acompletely new area has been created for “The<br />
Swarm” at Britain’s Thorpe <strong>Park</strong>, Merlin’s self<br />
appointed “Thrill Capital” located near to the main<br />
London airport, Heathrow.<br />
And the apocalypse reigns here: a (real) plane<br />
wreck can be seen, a (real) skirted fire brigade vehicle,<br />
and a (real) helicopter appears to have<br />
dropped out of the sky. The central point of the<br />
whole area is the ruin of a (not real) church, where<br />
the station of “The Swarm” is located. However as<br />
it always is with ruins, this example also has no roof<br />
anymore. And so the waiting line for “The Swarm”,<br />
with England’s average weather conditions (= rain),<br />
will be a real wet experience. A station without a roof<br />
may well be a great idea in Spain or the<br />
Sahelian zone, but not in England. But the<br />
church ruin is at least authentic and looks –<br />
we have to give them their due – really great.<br />
And one can also see our friend and helper<br />
in the form of a police van, lying on the ruin with the<br />
wheels pointing to the skies. This vehicle harbours<br />
the control room, from where the attraction is<br />
operated – great idea.<br />
In the event that a visitor wishes to sit in the first row,<br />
he or she has to obtain a free-of-charge Front-Row-<br />
Queue-Pass before entering the station area. It’s<br />
only this way that one can get a seat in that position.<br />
Why this is so is beyond the comprehension<br />
of the author, as there’s no real sense in the procedure.<br />
The rest of the rows are allocated to the ride<br />
guests, however, special wishes are catered to.<br />
The best seat appears to be to the front right, due<br />
to the build up to the first drop, as this position is<br />
64
simply more in front and is probably the best place<br />
on the attraction. Following the lift that comes<br />
straight after the station, a half roll connects up to<br />
the left, and is followed by a half looping. Passengers<br />
on the right side are lifted up and turned<br />
upside down to drop over 30 metres into the<br />
depths. Arriving again at ground level, the train<br />
crosses the wing of a plane wreck. A convincing<br />
example of a near-miss effect, once could imagine,<br />
however that’s not the case. Unfortunately everything<br />
is all too far away, and the straight approach<br />
to the wing destroys the illusion that something<br />
could happen here.<br />
For that though the following element, a Zero-G-<br />
Roll, is a lot of fun due to the width of the coaster<br />
cars. In a further curve it’s upside down, and this is<br />
really an element that can’t get any better. An<br />
inclined loop follows a curve close to the ground<br />
travelling around the already mentioned helicopter,<br />
which is followed by a Corkscrew, another<br />
curve through a part of the church ruin,<br />
and an Inline-Twist over the station.<br />
Unfortunately none of the near-miss-effects<br />
function during the ride itself, but the<br />
ride does however still offer a lot. That what causes<br />
passengers to duck their heads and draw up<br />
their legs in the case of the Italian “Raptor” at<br />
Gardaland (also a Merlin owned park) is not really<br />
perceived on “The Swarm”. The clearance gauge<br />
appears to be so carefully measured that everything<br />
remains far too far away to be able to categorise<br />
the situation as being a real collision danger.<br />
Considering this fact, the latest PR-stunt of the<br />
park with the launched story that test dummies lost<br />
arms and legs during the first run of the ride is an<br />
even bigger embarrassment. However, the story<br />
had the desired effect: countless British newspapers<br />
presented it.<br />
The theme concept<br />
initially caused a stir during the<br />
approval procedure, as Thorpe<br />
<strong>Park</strong> is located in the approach<br />
corridor of the Heathrow<br />
Airport<br />

It’s a great shame, as the park has done an<br />
excellent job with the theming, which can be seen<br />
everywhere, right down to the souvenir shop or at<br />
the issuing area of onride photos or alternatively<br />
videos: unerring with the title “Missing Persons”. A<br />
games booth integrated into the area carries the<br />
name “Fight Back”, and even the new toilets in the<br />
area are in a ruin-look. On the other hand a little less<br />
site-sound would have been better: the nerve-racking<br />
mixture of roaring, industrial screeches and<br />
other sounds do not produce an inviting atmosphere<br />
to stay longer than necessary.<br />
In the end the question remains as to what it’s really<br />
all about. Although there are no theming objects in<br />
the queue, there is a television screen showing a<br />
fictive TV-news programme continuously, reporting<br />
about the “incident”, but what exactly “The Swarm”<br />
really is, remains unknown. Maybe it’s better this<br />
way though, as the story conveys somewhat of<br />
mystery, which has its charm as well.<br />
Based on the public reaction at Thorpe <strong>Park</strong>, “The<br />
Swarm” can definitely be rated as a complete<br />
success. The TV-campaign for the attraction appears<br />
to work well; there were waiting times of over<br />
two hours during the Easter weekend!<br />
Summary: There’s nothing to complain about as far<br />
as the ride is concerned. Ride comfort is A1, there<br />
are no big vibrations, and the restraint system with<br />
rubber vests is comfortable. And there’s nothing<br />
wrong with the substantial and convincing staging<br />
either. But the interaction of the construction and<br />
theming doesn’t really want to function properly.<br />
The near-misses remain without any affect. “The<br />
Swarm” has given away potential. And this is really<br />
a shame.<br />

COASTER<br />
The new coaster at<br />
Duinrell offers fun for the<br />
whole family<br />
The park Duinrell in the Netherlands<br />
has with “Dragonfly” integrated<br />
yet another standard<br />
roller coaster perfectly into the<br />
available landscape with an old<br />
tree population.<br />
Text:<br />
Olaf Esser<br />
Photos: Olaf Esser, Duinrell<br />
RIDE FACTS<br />
Dragonfly<br />
The “Dragonfly” has been placed directly between<br />
the two existing coasters “Falcon” (a<br />
Gerstlauer-“Eurofighter”; see KPR 09/2009) and<br />
“Kikkerachtbaan” (a Zierer Tivoli-Coaster from the<br />
year 1985), and almost gives the impression that<br />
they are all only one coaster. This is also underlined<br />
by the fact that “Dragonfly” and “Falcon” both have<br />
the same paintwork: the tracks are brown, and all<br />
supports have a light brown tree trunk look. Both<br />
station buildings have been built in the same<br />
wooden house style.<br />
The outside waiting area of “Dragonfly” is not used<br />
on days with fewer visitors. The entrance without a<br />
long queue is directly in the station building, where<br />
passengers can take their place in the comfortable<br />
train. The family coaster train has been completely<br />
redesigned and comprises of 12 cars, each with<br />
two seats. They are equipped with two separate<br />
restraints, so that children with a height from one<br />
metre can also partake of the ride. This makes the<br />
new track attraction perfect fun for the whole family,<br />
as even adults with long legs have enough leg<br />
room.<br />
After leaving the station building the train travels<br />
over a left curve to the lift hill. The lift reaches the<br />
highest point after only a short period, which is<br />
particularly noise-dampened due to the reverse<br />
clamps. The track course can be described quite<br />
simply: the first left curve follows immediately,<br />
followed by a right curve and another left curve that<br />
already heralds the return. The return offers another<br />
right curve, a left curve, and as finale before<br />
reaching one of the smooth magnetic brakes and<br />
entering the station, the train travels through a<br />
small helix.<br />
The whole 361 metre long course is comfortably<br />
and fast, leading through the lovely trees of the<br />
park and past the “Waterspin”, a Top Spin from<br />
Huss.<br />
■ Opening: 31 st March 2012<br />
■ Track length: 361 m<br />
■ Track height: 15 m<br />
■ Max. speed: 50 km/h<br />
■ Max. acceleration: 2.9 g<br />

■ Operator: Duinrell, Wassenaar,<br />
Netherlands<br />

Another advantage of the family coaster from<br />
Gerstlauer is that only few personnel are needed<br />
by the park. Thanks to the electronic surveillance<br />
of the safety restraints, operation is possible with<br />
only one person. This is naturally economical for<br />
Duinrell on days with fewer visitors. And the photo<br />
equipment on the “Dragonfly” needs no personnel<br />
at all. Visitors can choose their photos from a number<br />
of screens, and for 2 Euro, can have them sent<br />
per Email.<br />
Duinrell lives to a large part from its overnight<br />
guests in the family camping area, and the Duingalows,<br />
the name given by Duinrell to its large<br />
choice of bungalows in various sizes. This year 40<br />
new Duingalow Premium XL have been added,<br />
that are available to large families with 4 to 6 persons,<br />
and have a higher comfort with added conveniences<br />
such as a dishwasher and flat screen<br />
television. And it’s exactly for this family public that<br />
the new family coaster has been built, which has<br />
been well received by its guests. It is an enrichment<br />
for the park, “Dragonfly” being a real family<br />
attraction with somewhat more thrill than the<br />
“Kikkerachtbaan” but still ideal for families that are<br />
a little deterred by the “Falcon” with its upside<br />
down elements.<br />

TOP ACT<br />
The 16-seat passenger<br />
carrier not only rotates<br />
during the ascent, but<br />
remains in permanent<br />
rotation<br />
At face value 2012 appears a disappointing<br />
year for major new<br />
rides in the UK, with only one<br />
new coaster opening. On the<br />
other hand, theme park visitors<br />
who love to go high in the skies<br />
have nothing to be disappointed<br />
about, as this year sees the<br />
opening of at least three new<br />
Freefall Towers in England: two<br />
outdoor and one indoor.<br />
Text & Photos: Marcus Gaines<br />
From the operator’s view<br />
Magma<br />
Unquestionably the most visually impressive of<br />
the two outdoor examples is the construction<br />
“Magma” at Paultons <strong>Park</strong>. Supplied by Italian manufacturer<br />
SBF Visa, “Magma” is a 25 m tall “Roto”<br />
Freefall Tower that has been extensively themed by<br />
RMA Themed Attractions. At first, the choice of a<br />
drop tower may come as a slight surprise, as the<br />
park is already home to two family tower rides. But<br />
“Magma” is different enough to stand out, especially<br />
as at 25 m it's now the park’s tallest and most<br />
thrilling ride.<br />
The volcanic structure that surrounds the central<br />
tower has been built in a cartoon style, and the<br />
adjoining yellow and blue plant rooms and toilet<br />
block have been re-decorated to look like mining<br />
storage sheds.<br />
After walking through the outside queue area<br />
guests find themselves entering the base of the<br />
volcano, past a bubbling pool of molten magma,<br />
past veins of molten magma starting to appear in<br />
the walls of the darkened tunnel, and a dinosaur<br />
that swipes towards its cage door at them. Once<br />
arriving at the very heart of the volcano, passengers<br />
climb aboard the 16-seat round gondola. As<br />
is the norm for Paultons <strong>Park</strong> on other attractions,<br />
the ride offers a relatively low height restriction:<br />
children over the age of 5 and 1.1 m tall can ride<br />
70
with an adult, while children over 8 and at least 1.3<br />
m tall can ride alone. The overhead restraints are<br />
pleasantly not too heavy, and even when secured<br />
do not push down, no doubt to the added comfort<br />
of younger riders.<br />
With riders now ready to go, sound effects signal<br />
the start of the eruption and the volcano crater fills<br />
with smoke. Once shrouded in smoke the ride<br />
begins. Although sadly it begins with a relatively<br />
slow accent rather than a fast eruption. Once the<br />
ride vehicle has cleared the volcanic structure, the<br />
round gondola begins to rotate around the tower.<br />
This movement helps to swirl some of the smoke out<br />
of the crater for onlookers to see, although the<br />
amount of smoke that comes out is weather dependant.<br />
Having risen to the top of the 25 metre high tower,<br />
riders get to enjoy spectacular views of the<br />
picturesque park and the surrounding countryside,<br />
including the edge of the New Forest National <strong>Park</strong>.<br />
After just enough time to admire the views, riders<br />
experience the first of a number of drops. Unlike<br />
many other rotating tower rides that only<br />
rotate during the accent, this example from<br />
SBF Visa continues to rotate even when<br />
dropping. Although not a fast rotation, it still<br />
makes a difference to the tower ride experience.<br />
After the first big drop, the ride<br />
continues with several rapid accents and<br />
drops of varying height. Considering the<br />
relatively low height of the ride, each drop<br />
packs a punch of airtime and negative<br />
g-forces that gives that wonderful sensation<br />
in the stomach.<br />
Unfortunately the method for releasing<br />
guests seems cumbersome. There's no<br />
automatic release, instead an airline hose<br />
has to be extended and connected to the<br />
ride vehicle. Although this doesn't cause a<br />
huge delay, if the operator isn't quick<br />
enough to retract the hose, kids desperate<br />
to rush around for another go find themselves<br />
getting tripped up by it.<br />

travelled UK fairs under<br />
the ownership of showman<br />
Mike Wallis, and is on long<br />
term lease to the park. The ride<br />
has been given a small makeover<br />
with a new backflash<br />
being the only real evidence of<br />
the ride’s new pirate theme. ■<br />

Families in particular<br />
have discovered the park<br />
for themselves<br />
The two already existing<br />
Freefall Towers at Paultons<br />
<strong>Park</strong>, and the new restaurant at<br />
the entrance to “Peppa Pig<br />
World” that opened in 2011<br />
Following on from the impressive job of theming<br />
“Peppa Pig World” in 2011 (see KPR 5/2011), it was<br />
crucial that this year’s new ride was also themed to<br />
such a high standard. However, last year the quality<br />
of “Peppa Pig World” made the adjoining rides look<br />
out of place as they were not themed. Now the park<br />
has created a similar problem on the other side of<br />
the property. “Magma” looks terrific but the adjacent<br />
“Cobra” coaster and nearby “Edge” Disk 'O<br />
coaster remain without a theme and create an inconsistency<br />
to the area. The park’s commercial<br />
director Stephen Lorton acknowledges that theming<br />
future attractions is important for the park:<br />
“After the success of ‘Peppa Pig World’ and the<br />
very positive feedback we received from guests<br />
regarding the attraction and the quality of the theming,<br />
we want to continue this trend to add<br />
value to the experience of our guests”.<br />
On the subject of “Peppa Pig World” and the<br />
nearby attractions, the “Magic Forest” walkthrough<br />
has been closed. The very dated<br />
attraction that opened in 1984 really did look<br />
out of place alongside the entrance to Peppa<br />
Pig World. The building is to be retained, and<br />
even if the corrugated sheet structure may well not<br />
quite fit to the high class ambience of “Peppa Pig<br />
World” it is being converted into the “Railroad<br />
Diner” to provide an additional much needed food<br />
outlet in a busy area of the park. “Peppa Pig World”<br />
has far exceeded the parks expectations on the<br />
visitor number increase. Prior to its addition,<br />
Paultons <strong>Park</strong> welcomed in the region of 500,000<br />
guests, but in 2011 more than 1 million guests came<br />
through the doors!<br />
It's hardly surprising that the park chose to put<br />
“Magma” on the opposite side of the park in an<br />
attempt to spread the crowds across the whole<br />
park. “Magma” was chosen to appeal to older children,<br />
but was still not designed to attract teenage<br />
thrill seekers. Paultons <strong>Park</strong> is very much about the<br />
family day out, and managers are keen not to attract<br />
the wrong market.<br />
The past two years have seen the park begin to<br />
come of age. For its first 26 years it was very much<br />
a park enjoyed by locals, but with the addition of<br />
“Peppa Pig World” it gained national attention. The<br />
installation of a ride with the quality of “Magma” will<br />
probably ensure this recognition continues. ■<br />

NORWEGIAN BREAKAWAY<br />
Water slides on cruise ships are<br />
becoming more and more important.<br />
Disney led the way with<br />
its “Aquaduck”-slides on the<br />
“Disney Dream” and the “Disney<br />
Fantasy”, and now competitor<br />
Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) is<br />
following.<br />

The twelfth ship of the cruise line that is currently<br />
under construction in Germany at the Papenburg<br />
Meyer wharf, the “Norwegian Breakaway” with<br />
an over 4,000 passenger capacity, is being orientated<br />
in particular on the “appetites” of teenagers and<br />
young adults. It will contain the largest children and<br />
youth area in the NCL-fleet, and also the largest<br />
collection of water slides: five in total.<br />
Two of the slides in the “Aqua <strong>Park</strong>” on the “Breakaway”<br />
are freefall slides, a type that was first built on<br />
a competing ship “Carnival Spirit”, offering the thrill<br />
of standing and waiting for the floor to open up from<br />
underneath. It’s exactly this thrill that is offered also<br />
by the Hartwigsen/Aquarena patented “Aqua-<br />
Loop”- slides, and the “Breakaway” will be the first<br />
cruise ship that will have this unusual looping slide<br />
installed. In addition, two “Twister” slides, similar to<br />
those offered by WhitewaterWest will be on offer to<br />
guests, on which passengers hurtle upwards in two<br />
spiral formed pipes, in order to establish which person<br />
was the fastest during the race. It’s somewhat<br />
calmer on the fifth open slide in comparison ("Open<br />
Flume Bodyslide"), which is perfect for families.<br />
The “Aqua <strong>Park</strong>” also offers two swimming pools, four<br />
whirlpools, and various restaurants. Additionally<br />
there are sport complexes spread out over three<br />
decks, among them a basketball court, a climbing<br />
wall, a Zip-Line (Flying Fox), and the seven metres<br />
high climbing playground “Spider Web” with a spiral<br />
slide. And not to forget to mention the largest high<br />
rope course on the sea, which also contains “The<br />
Plank”, a platform that extends almost 2.5 metres<br />
over the ship’s edge.<br />
In a separate tropically designed “Kids Aqua <strong>Park</strong>”<br />
there will be a kiddie pool with slides located between<br />
larger than life-sized Nickelodeon characters<br />
(SpongeBob SquarePants). Norway had entered<br />
into an appropriate licence contract with Nickelodeon.<br />
The completion of the 324 metre long ship (costs<br />
approx. 600 million Euro) is expected to be April<br />
2013, and the maiden voyage will begin in<br />
Southampton, travelling to New York. After that, the<br />
“Breakaway” will operate 7-night cruises from home<br />
port New York in the direction of the Bahamas and<br />
Florida.<br />

In Bang Saray there is to be a new, approximately<br />
14 hectare sized water park erected<br />
directly on the beach on Thailand’s east coast.<br />
Building contractor is project developer Liakat<br />
Dhanji with his firm Amazon Falls C. Ltd. The property<br />
is only 16 km away from popular tourist destination<br />
Pattaya, and for this reason visitor numbers<br />
are estimated to be 800,000 annually, as soon as<br />
the project is opened in 2013.<br />
Additionally it’s the first water park worldwide that<br />
will be themed according to the characters of Cartoon<br />
Network. An appropriate licence contract has<br />
been entered into with Turner Broadcasting System<br />
Asia Pacific Inc. (a company of Time Warner) which<br />
allows use of the popular titles from Warner Bros.,<br />
MGM und Hanna-Barbara. Initially the popular<br />
figures from Ben 10, The Powerpuff Girls, Johnny<br />
Bravo and The Amazing World of Gumball will be<br />
used in Thailand.<br />
In addition to a big wave pool, a long Lazy River,and<br />
various family water slides and thrill slides, there will<br />
also be the largest interactive water play fortress in<br />
the world at Cartoon Network Amazon Water <strong>Park</strong>.<br />
This and all other water attractions will be realized,<br />
themed and built by the manufacturer Polin from<br />

The Launch Coaster “Freischütz” from Maurer<br />
Söhne (see KPR 10/2011) erected last year,<br />
received at long last its intended theming at the<br />
beginning of the 2012 season.<br />
As is know, the attraction could only open a half a<br />
year later than expected, due to a delay in<br />
production. And in order not to disturb the running<br />
operation, <strong>Park</strong> Manageress Silke Holzner made<br />
the decision to realize the theming design after the<br />
end of the season 2011.<br />
10 percent of the total investment<br />
amount of around five million<br />
Euro was planned for the ambitious<br />
theming, for which Künstlerische<br />
Holzgestaltung (Jürgen<br />
Bergmann) was engaged, well<br />
known for its individual wooden<br />
objects for play and understanding.<br />
And what’s really nice about it is<br />
that it’s not explicitly a waiting<br />
area, but a “walking through”<br />
area that offers fun and entertainment<br />
to park guests. Silke<br />
Both labyrinths “Wolfsschlucht”<br />
and “Gärten” have to<br />
be conquered before reaching<br />
the station<br />
Also new: bright LED<br />
wheels called “Fire Wheels”<br />
from Maurer Söhne<br />
Holzner: “It’s only after both<br />
labyrinths, that the actual waiting<br />
area begins.”<br />
With that Bayern-<strong>Park</strong> has<br />
proved that designs rich in ideas<br />
are not only limited to large<br />
parks.<br />

NEW STUDY: NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON CHILDREN<br />
Text:<br />
Frank Lanfer<br />
Something that adults have always suspected<br />
has been confirmed according to a report by the<br />
Bayerischen Rundfunk radio station: in a small and<br />
not representative study involving 60 persons, it<br />
was established that some of the most popular TVseries<br />
cause children in primary school age to be<br />
more inattentive, restless and inane<br />
as others. According to this announcement,<br />
a daily ‘consumption’ of<br />
only 9 minutes of SpongeBob<br />
SquarePants shows a measureable<br />
effect. Unfortunately the extent of<br />
affect of other kiddie series has not<br />
been revealed.<br />

PROJECT: NEW WATER PARK IN THE CARIBBEAN<br />
Text:<br />
H. Jürgen Kagelmann<br />
A Spanish investment group intends to build a<br />
new hybrid-park on 100 hectares in the tourist<br />
centre Punto Cana in the eastern park of the<br />
Dominican Republic: around 190 million $ will be<br />
invested. The anchor attractions will be a skinhall,<br />
a huge pool that even makes surfing competitions<br />
possible with the 46 different types of<br />
wave forms, an amphitheatre for musical events,<br />
and a coaster.<br />
In-depth details will be announced in March, and<br />
one speaks very optimistically of a year of building<br />
time after that. The plans were discussed with the<br />
Ministry for Tourism as Punta Cana is undoubtedly<br />
one of the most important tourist destinations in the<br />
Caribbean, and until now entertainment possibilities<br />
have been missing, with the exception of<br />
only a go-kart park (Fun City Action <strong>Park</strong>) and the<br />
marine park (Ocean World Adventure <strong>Park</strong>) near<br />
Puerto Plata).<br />
3.7 million tourists are in general not<br />
an uninteresting target group. However<br />
there are some thoughts on the<br />
matter: hardly any European or<br />
north American would be interested<br />
in skiing in the Dominican Republic,<br />
and whether or not there are enough<br />
locals who can afford to pay the<br />
most probably high entrance fee is<br />
questionable.<br />
Experts also have brought up the<br />
point of the very high energy costs<br />
in the country, which would make<br />
operation expensive. And the investment<br />
group of Salvador Ballesteros<br />
and his partner Antonio<br />
Jimenez Fernandez have until now<br />
not been noticed for any park projects<br />
in the industry, and so it remains<br />
to be seen if the project will<br />
run like snow in the sun. ■<br />
TAKEOVERS: SLAGHAREN AND WISCONSIN DELLS<br />

The Spanish park group (owned by Candover<br />
International, a British Private Equity Group) is<br />
on a shopping tour once again.<br />
Following the takeover of Movie <strong>Park</strong> Germany last<br />
year, the Northern American subsidiary, Palace Entertainment,<br />
has now purchased the water park<br />
Noah’s Ark (in the US-State of Wisconsin) directly<br />
from the owners Tim und Dan Gantz. With an area<br />
of almost 30 hectares, it’s considered to be America's<br />
largest water park, and also includes two<br />
hotels.<br />
Further along in Europe, the Ponypark Slagharen in<br />
the Netherlands has also been incorporated. The<br />
park was erected in 1963 by the Bemboom family,<br />
and with an annual visitor figure of<br />
over one million, is one of the largest<br />
parks in the Netherlands. Forty attractions<br />
and a holiday village with<br />
800 beds are spread out over 80<br />
hectares.<br />
The group now operates 72 establishments<br />
worldwide, and with that<br />
Parques Reunidos is the second<br />
largest park operator in Europe.<br />
<strong>Park</strong> group boss Richard Golding:<br />
“The acquisition of Slagharen signifies<br />
the extension of our family<br />
leisure facilities in a new market, the<br />

The Rasti-Land located<br />
near Hannover is also<br />
offering its visitors something<br />
new this year: an<br />
electric horse riding attraction<br />
from the manufacturer<br />
Metallbau Emmeln.<br />
This attraction has been on<br />
offer by the North German<br />
manufacturer since the<br />
1970s, and since then, more<br />
than 50 examples of this type<br />
have been sold. All are<br />
based on the popular – and<br />
not only with children – simulation<br />
of horse riding with<br />
varied and surprising transitions<br />
from a light trot to a fast<br />
gallop. The length of the<br />
course and the design of the vehicle can<br />
be customised according to customer<br />
requirements, however, in most cases it<br />
remains the horse.<br />
The Ratzke family has chosen a<br />
completely new theme for Rasti-Land<br />
however, in the form of five camels that ride<br />
over the 113 metre course, during that time<br />
passing a number of scenes.<br />
And due to the particularly small kiddie<br />
seats, this attraction can even be operated<br />
without an age limit, so long as an adult<br />
rides as well.<br />

In the upcoming year the first building<br />
phase of the world’s largest shopping<br />
mall will be completed, currently under<br />
construction at around 25 km from Beijing<br />
International Airport.<br />
Included are not only the highest indoor<br />
coaster in the world from Premier Rides<br />
(we reported) – this superlative has been<br />
claimed by the Schwarzkopf “Mindbender”<br />
at the West Edmonton Mall since<br />
1985. The key technical data will not be<br />
revealed until the end of this year, due to<br />
competition reasons.<br />
An indoor water park with an area of around of<br />
23,000 m 2 and a height of 30 m will entice visitor<br />
masses already in the first building phase. The area<br />
will contain 4 main attractions, build and supplied<br />
by Polin: a “King Cobra”-Boomerang slide, a<br />
“Space Shuttle” slide, an “Uphill Navigator” with<br />
sequences by way of water jets causing an upward<br />
direction, and a “Blackhole” pipe slide.<br />
The development company Berjaya Great Mall of<br />
China Co. Ltd., intends to complete the 5.5 million<br />
m 2 project within the next 5 years. It will contain in<br />
addition to 2 indoor parks and the indoor water<br />

OBITUARY: JIMMY GODDEN<br />
Jimmy Godden was an amusement<br />
industry tycoon owning<br />
and operating 3 seaside amusement<br />
parks; Rotunda Amusement<br />
<strong>Park</strong> (Folkestone), Dreamland<br />
(Margate) and Ramsgate<br />
Pleasure <strong>Park</strong>, as well as a number<br />
of amusement arcades<br />
throughout the UK.<br />

Godden became part of the amusement industry<br />
in 1975 when he married into a family that<br />
was heavily involved in the Rotunda Amusement<br />
<strong>Park</strong>. When his father-in-law died, he had more<br />
involvement in the park, with ambitious plans.<br />
After 25 years in the business, the successful<br />
entrepreneur is reported to have lost heart for the<br />
amusement industry following a tragic accident at<br />
the Rotunda Amusement <strong>Park</strong>. In September 1999,<br />
an 8 year old girl died after falling out of a roller<br />
coaster, an accident for which Godden’s company<br />
was later convicted under the health and safety legislation.<br />
Having purchased Dreamland Margate<br />
from the Bembom Brothers in 1996, Godden became<br />
unpopular when he closed the park down for<br />
good in 2005. Since its closure, the park, home to<br />
the UK’s oldest coaster, the 1920 Scenic Railway,<br />
has been the centre of a long running dispute. Initial<br />
plans to use the site for housing and shops were<br />
met with anger, and a campaign to build a heritage<br />
park of historic rides looks ever closer to becoming<br />
a reality. In 2008, around 25% of the Scenic Railway<br />
was destroyed by fire following an arson attack. But<br />
the coaster is protected as a UK listed structure,<br />
meaning it must be restored. It’s planned that the<br />
attraction will be the centrepiece of the heritage<br />
park, if and when it opens.<br />
Godden died at the age of 66 following a two year<br />
battle with cancer. He leaves behind wife Rochelle<br />
and sons James (from a previous marriage), Jeremy<br />
and Jordan.<br />
