Hearing the "crown jewel" talk is surprising to a degree, but also not surprising as well. The bones of the park and setting seem good enough to where someone with an actual plan could probably make a good amount of money with it. SFSL is like an earlier game (and therefore easier) roller coaster tycoon level that's fun to play where you inherit a park that already has some good attractions and fun terrain as well as some decent space to add-on, but isn't attracting new visitors. Your task is to improve the overall guest happiness by improving the theming/decor and adding a marquee roller coaster or two. And much like roller coaster tycoon or some other theme park game, there's probably very much a time limit involved for the new company to accomplish said goals here! If nothing else, I am so happy that this park is no longer under the thumb of the horrible previous ownership. What a dumpster fire of an org that turned out to be. In regards to the money people being based in KC and therefore it doesn't matter because the actual park management is based in Florida, yeah that's probably not totally true going by real world experience. You WANT the bean counters to be able to take their kids to a park(s) they are helping finance, even if they technically aren't "involved" in that side of the business! -

Correct - Innovative Attractions rebranded to Enchanted Parks. All the parks were part of the fixed package except for St. Louis. They apparently demanded that our park be included to make the deal. Read some where enchanted parks management is going to be on site soon. Their CEO seems engaged and Enchanted Parks customer service on social media appears to be very responsive -

Seriously though, continuing to maintain historic rides like the carousel and Screamin Eagle will be an early indicator of what type of operator the new company intends to be. -

My bad. I was confusing EPR as an acronym for Enchanted Parks. I thought Innovative Attractions was the FL company but apparently that is the former name of what is now Enchanted Parks? Hope I have that straight. Aanyway I was just looking for reasons they went after these specific parks since 4 of them are clustered somewhat regionally. If it is true that they wanted SFSTL specifically then it implies that SF had some flexibility on what they were willing to sell, not necessarily a fixed list. Just curious how it all came down. -
