Wait....what? I thought there were no refills or refillable cups offered. I’ve been paying full price for sodas.
You can't use your all season refills but your can bring a couple to get the discounted refill price.
 
Oh I guess I mis read it the other day.....dang what a way to waste like $40 on drinks. Guess my all season cup will scan .99 cent?
 
I got to visit the park again from 5-9 Sunday and it was another phenomenal visit. The night shift is significantly better than 11-3. It feels like a cool, hip evening out in the Burg, whereas the latter just feels like a brutal battle in the dismal Virginia humidity and makes one question their dedication to theme parks. The only difference I noticed between the two shifts is a lot more families during the day and more "unruly" guests at night. I use this term loosely as it was mainly just soccer moms taking off their mask while walking around trying to sneak in a beer or two between rides. I would still say mask compliance was easily above 90% and as someone who regularly goes to parks, the gyms, and grocery stores, BGW still feels drastically safer than any of those places. With the limited capacity however, it's still super easy to social distance and maintain six feet even if someone isn't wearing a mask. The main choke points for crowds were Killarney, Wild Reserve, and the plaza outside of Trapper's.

Speaking of Trappers, got to meet the BGWFans/PFN gang and it was super great to meet all of you. This site has provided a lot of joy over the years and it was awesome to be able to connect names to faces.

If anyone is planning on visiting the event and wants a visual reference, my friend recorded a vlog showcasing the park and it's offerings. Super coincidental that there just happens to be someone in the vlog who shares the same name as me and many of the same attributes as myself, small world.

Sorry if this has already been asked, but my fiance and I have a reservation for Thursday morning but don't have a printer. Will they let us in with the email reservation? Thanks very much for your help!
 
Current weather situation. Staff are actually doing a good job enforcing distancing and not letting to many into the buildings from what I can see. Luckily i hunkered down under the Canadian store (which is closed) porch before the downpour started.

are lockers open (i thought i remembered someone saying they are not)? If they are not do they let you carry bags in coaster lines?
They are open and normal rules on lose articles in line apply.

I dont know if this just happened this week but parking is now 20 bucks for the event.

Changes coming fast and furious right now. I had honestly forgotten they had added Thursday AM timeslots, which weather-wise is definitely not working out for them today.

I did not go into the park yet as I am waiting out the rain but there does appear to be a decent amount of car in the England lot.

The line for parking this morning was bad and they didn't open till 5 till 11.

Food services is now using wrapped utensils. Yet another sign that they are listening and reacting to feedback.

Pretty poor luck so far today. Got into the park at 1055 and got two rides in on Invadr before they shut everything down. I feel bad for the people who spent money to come here. On the bright side, got to get some cool 2020 merch for cheap. Something to remember the year by haha
