CALGARY, Alberta, Canada — WhiteWater Attractions is proud to celebrate the opening of a new Log Flume on Canadian soil. At Calaway Park’s Timber Falls, visitors are invited to take a journey through three interactive themed buildings as they queue up to the Timber Falls Sawmill. Riders will feel the rush of three high velocity drops and a zig-zag river section as they traverse the highly themed adventure. Non-riders can join in the action from the Timber Falls view area where spectators have access to two explosive water cannons. Guests are encouraged to take their memories home with a photo from the Timber Falls photo booth.
“We are excited to bring Timber Falls to our guests. Being our first themed ride, not only does it thrill our guests with high velocity drops, it interacts with them in the entertaining, fast moving queue line. Timber Falls is a game changer; it aligns with the overall growth plan for the park,” comments Bob Williams, General Manager, Calaway Park.
Manufactured by WhiteWater Attractions with general construction by Canada’s Kostam Design Inc, the new Log Flume will help conserve the park’s water consumption by retaining 95% of the water used to operate the ride. Ever since the award-winning park opened its doors in 1982, Calaway Park has built a well-deserved reputation for excellence by offering the best attractions and strives to offer affordable, environmentally consciences and family-fun entertainment for over three decades.
