TWO wave pools?[edit]

I've been to Boulder Beach twice, and I can only recall the single wave pool (where I've added the photo to the article). Where is the second wave pool? Greg Salter (talk) 02:00, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There are two, they are right next to each other- see google maps Luca 1350a (talk) 02:06, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, two[edit]

Second one was installed before the 2007 season, and sits right next to the first. Sasquatcher (talk) 23:54, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Near Coeur d'Alene[edit]

Updated the reference from “near the town of Athol” to “Coeur d'Alene” as it is the most recognizable town in North Idaho and is only 17 miles from the park. Layne Pitcher (talk) 13:04, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Scott Reed[edit]

Removed the reference to Scott Reed as he has been sporadically employed by the park but is not a fixture of the park as the article seems to imply. Layne Pitcher (talk) 13:16, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Ice Show[edit]

Removed the reference to the Ice show as there is no support for the statement that it is the most popular attraction at the park. Layne Pitcher (talk) 13:28, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Water Ride Count[edit]

Removed water ride count as it is covered in the article and was outdated. Layne Pitcher (talk) 13:33, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Acreage and Attractions[edit]

Added current acreage as well as attraction count as stated by the park. Layne Pitcher (talk) 13:45, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Updated References[edit]

Added references for various statements within the article. Layne Pitcher (talk) 14:23, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]


Tiger, Theatre, Ice Show, Magic Show, & Garfield Misconception[edit]

The tiger was definitely a fixture of the park. It was near the movie theatre that played old timey movies like The Little Rascals (not the newest reboot version). And it was definitely named Tigger. This was before Garfield was the mascot.

Also, no mention of the ice show or magician shows they have periodically.

Also one time, in the saloon restaurant, there was a guy in a Garfield costume and he was like, "What's Garfield's favorite food?" and we were like, "Lasagna!" because it is clearly stated in the comic strips on many occasions that Garfield's favorite food is indeed lasagna, and then the guy was like, "That's right! Pizza!" What a dick. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.52.25.147 (talk) 09:08, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Corkscrew[edit]

I think it should be noted somewhere (but I'm not sure where) that Silverwood boasts the world's oldest inverting coaster (corkscrew). This is an extremely significant piece of amusement park history. --Plokmijnuhbygvtfcdxeszwaq (talk) 00:32, 13 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Article split[edit]

The article may need to be split, see this discussion. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:27, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Defunct Roller Coaster[edit]

Anyone have any information about a defunct roller coaster at Silverwood? According to RCDB Silverwood got it in 1991 and was dated back to 1958. It was a steel kiddie coaster made by Molina & Son's.
