*Canobie Lake Park To Require Reservations, *
*Temperature Checks For July Reopening*
SALEM, N.H. (CBS) – Thrill-seekers rejoice. Canobie Lake Park is getting
ready to reopen. The amusement part in Salem, New Hampshire will open its
gate to the public on July 16

.
If you are headed that way, expect things to be a little different than
past years, in order to keep visitors and employees safe and healthy.
“Our new normal is what we’re working on diligently,” Brand Manager Chris
Nicoli told WBZ-TV. “You’re going to see a lot of changes and differences
this year to create a safe, outdoor, fun, family entertainment experience.”
Those changes include health screenings and temperature checks at the gate,
limited capacity on rides, and social distancing in queues and throughout
the park. There will even be a ‘social distance crew’ to help it all go
smoothly.
“One of the big things too, is you’re not going to be able to just come
like you normally would,” Nicoli explained. “You are going to need an
advance reservation this year.”
Those reservations aren’t available just yet, but will be available at
Canobie.com <www.canobie.com/updates/> soon.
“We are going to have some timed entry where guests will be asked to come
at a particular time to check in, but once you are here you can enjoy the
rest of the day,” Nicoli said.
The state of New Hampshire recently approved recommendations for amusement
parks

to reopen, which cleared the way for Canobie Lake Park’s plan to welcome
visitors back. It usually opens for the season in mid-May.
“We’re excited to be back. We’re excited to have you back,” Nicoli said.
“And please be patient with us.”
See you in the queue,
