‘More family fun': Carowinds debuts new launch coaster in Camp Snoopy
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WGHP) — A new family launch coaster is now open at Carowinds' Camp Snoopy, providing park visitors with even 'more family fun.' Launching from zero to 31 mph in seconds, Snoopy's Racing Railway takes riders through 'giggle-inducing twists and turns' as it completes two laps on 804 feet of steel track. Carowinds says that with a height requirement of 36 inches, it is the perfect attraction for even the youngest thrill seekers. 'From the rider experience to the imaginative theming, Snoopy's Racing Railway showcases our commitment to bringing world-class family entertainment to the Carolinas,' said Brian Oerding, park manager. 'Guest feedback has been extremely positive, and as one of our new flagship attractions in Camp Snoopy, we're sure it will provide fun-filled adventures for generations of park guests.' The ride's specifications are as follows: Type of Ride Family Launch Coaster Manufacturer ART Engineering Speed 31mph Length 804 ft. with two laps per cycle Rider Height Riders 36' to 48' must be accompanied by an adult · Riders over 60' must be accompanied by a child Train Accommodates 14 riders Charlie Brown's River Raft Blast, an interactive water ride featuring onboard and onshore water cannons, is also scheduled to open in Camp Snoopy this season. Before Snoopy's Racing Railway, Carowinds had not debuted a new ride since 2019 with the opening of Copperhead Strike; however, earlier this year, the park has opened other activities to enjoy, including the Carolina Harbor Shore Club, an adults-only area of the waterpark featuring a full-service swim-up pool bar.

McDonald's new site on A2 near Canterbury gets approval
Plans for a new drive-through McDonald's on a main road in Kent have been approved despite some residents' claims there was "no need" for fast-food chain tabled plans to launch at the A2 London-bound Gate Services at Dunkirk, between Faversham and Canterbury, on the site of a former Travelodge 79-seat eatery will be next to an existing Costa Borough Council's planning committee voted on Thursday to approve the plans, with 10 councillors in favour and four against. Charlie Brown, acting as a planning agent for McDonald's, implored the committee to back the proposals, according to the Local Democracy Reporting Service. "The application will help redevelop a brownfield site, enhancing the existing service area, creating over 100 new jobs across a range of full and part time roles," he Faversham resident Sarah Moakes said the site would "attract horrendous traffic, especially at tea-time" and would be a "magnet for antisocial behaviour".Councillor Rich Lehmann said: "Whilst new jobs are welcome we must also consider whether this employment genuinely offsets the potential negative impact on existing local businesses – especially independent food outlets in Faversham."Councillor Ben Martin said: "Based on what we have here I cannot see a reason to reject which would stand up to the scrutiny of an inspector."
