TOURISM : Knott’s Celebrates Spring

Knott’s Berry Farm may have suffered a setback by having to the delay the official opening of its “Jaguar!” family roller coaster by two weeks until June 17. But spring attendance remains strong.

Spokesman Bob Ochsner said the Buena Park attraction is having one of the best spring break seasons in memory. The park opened a live stunt show last Saturday, its first new stunt show in 17 years. It also is trying to attract families with young children with a series of Easter mazes.

The park is also continuing to reach out to diverse audiences through a series of special events. On May 12, Knott’s will be the site of a Christian music festival after normal park hours.
