Woo Hoo Run at Aquatica San Diego. The entire park will be converted to Sesame Place San Diego for the 2021 season, with Aquatica’s last season being 2020. Woo Hoo Run is the only attraction being completely removed after 2020, all other slides will be rethemed.

That was quick. It hasn't been there that long, has it?

It's just getting rethemed as a cheap crowd pleaser for the 100th anniversary of the park.

Ted, I thought the same. Toothsome is very popular in Orlando, though. There’s also a HRC in Orlando’s Citywalk. NBA City closed to make way for toothsome in Orlando several years ago.

Looks like later this year in April, the shows will close at Holy Land Experience and the property’s future use will be re-evaluated, including the possibility of sale. This article is pessimistic about another attraction taking over, thinking it would likely be sold for retail space of a sale happens.

I had no idea it was even open anyways!
Everytime I'd driven past the place it looked abandoned.

Pets Ahoy - SeaWorld Orlando
Pets Ahoy - SeaWorld San Antonio
Critters in Charge - Busch Gardens Tampa
More Pets Shenanigans - Busch Gardens Williamsburg

Pets Rule at SeaWorld San Diego closed early in 2019, that leaves none of their parks with house pet type shows. Apparently the animals and the shows were contracted out and the contract for them ended. The animals were either adopted out or went to a ranch to live.

I wonder what replacements the parks have planned for these locations in the parks. I’d guess nothing for now.

rcdb had its closing date as 2020 when I looked there other day though, so hmm... WA is (or was) year round still, right? Did it operate in early 2020 before everything shut down?

I've found a couple blog posts that say it was closed "all of last year" and I could swear I read a press release or local news article that said the same thing, but I cant find it now.
