Virginia Thrills

Virginia Thrills is a theme park in Gum Spring, Virginia owned by Cedar Fair. It originally opened in 1970, and was purchased by said company in 1993, as competition from nearby parks like Carwardine Colony grew.

The park’s most prominent slogan is "It’s all in the Name."

History
The park opened in 1970.

In 1993, Cedar Fair purchased the struggling park.

In 2001, the kids area was revamped and rebranded as Camp Snoopy, with all the rides being renamed and rethemed to Peanuts characters.

Roller Coasters

 * Aerocoaster (2004; A Vekoma SFC, formerly known as "Silver Streak" [2004-2017])
 * Avalanche Run (1991; A Mack Bobsled Coaster, formerly known as “Winter Olympic Bobsleds” [1991-1992])
 * Big Stratt (2013; A B&M Strata Coaster at 416 feet tall, the coaster is interesting due to using an elevator lift to get up, and while it can be described as somewhat meandering, it’s less meandering than I305, and also slower in comparison [while it reaches a max speed of 100 miles an hour on the first drop, it directly leads into a large airtime hill with two very powerful trim brakes], making this more of a crowd-pleaser)
 * Bullet (2007; An Intamin Xcelerator clone)
 * Explosion (2003; An SED-Hopkins Hyper Coaster)
 * Intimidator 305 (2010; An Intamin Giga Coaster "Intimidator" model; received mixed reviews, as to how while coaster lovers loved it, the general public wasn’t too fond of it, particularly for causing blackouts; the general public’s reception led to Cedar Fair and Intamin making various modifications, which would bleed into it's clones at Dallas' Adventure and the non-Cedar Fair New Mexico's Backyard)
 * Ricochet (2018; A Mack Large Park Wilde Maus, moved from Six Flags Kings Dominion)
 * The Superior (2005; A B&M Floorless Coaster)
