Park News - (5/23/07) Silverwood wants to expand, as does any good theme park, but before the park can grow much further and realize plans to perhaps even build a hotel, they will need to build their own sewage treatment facility. The park is now asking the Kootenai County Commission for a permit to build such a facility on 96 acres of property they own next to the park. The public hearing will take place June 21st and currently the park uses large septic tanks and drain fields located throughout their 380 acre property which they would like to get away from using because it is no longer acceptable.

2008 - Aftershock - (5/9/08) A new construction update for Aftershock has been posted to Roller Coaster Alley as the monstrous Boomerang element is nearly complete.
  (5/6/08) A new Aftershock construction update has been posted to Roller Coaster Alley as the first pieces of coaster track have now gone vertical.
  (4/30/08) You can see another Aftershock update posted to Roller Coaster Alley.
  (4/29/08) Silverwood held it’s annual Dry Run Day for employees and friends to shake out the cobwebs and pictures have been posted to RCPro. They’ve also posted a few pictures of the Aftershock construction site which is just now starting to go vertical. I guess they better hurry up and get those last few pieces from Chicago already.
  (4/11/08) A construction update showing off the progress on Silverwood’s new Aftershock has been posted to RCPro.
  (3/26/08) According to Roller Coaster Alley, Silverwood has chosen Aftershock as the new name for Déjà Vu, their Giant Inverted Boomerang coaster.
  (3/17/08) New pictures from Silverwood showing off the park and various pieces of Déjà Vu laying around can be seen at RCPro.
  (3/11/08) Though some of the pictures posted to the RCPro forum are a little blurry, you can see that pieces of Déjà Vu are now starting to arrive at Silverwood.
  (1/24/08) Silverwood has confirmed the addition of Six Flags’ old Déjà Vu coaster in a press release posted to Roller Coaster Alley. The park is holding a contest to pick a new name for the ride and they hope to have it up and running by this July. Silverwood has posted pictures and a video of the ride in action to their own website as well the ride name contest information. In all seriousness, I wish Silverwood the best of luck with their new ride. It’s a huge monster icon ride that would be a great fit for the park, and is actually is a lot of fun to ride when it works. Plus it will be very interesting to hear if Silverwood can tame the beast that Six Flags couldn’t.
  (12/12/07) As crazy as it may sound, Screamscape sources have confirmed that Silverwood will be getting the Déjà Vu coaster (Vekoma Giant Inverted Boomerang) from Six Flags Great America.
  (11/28/07) I’ve got to admit I was shocked by this news, but according to a rumor posted at Roller Coaster Alley, Silverwood may have been the park to buy one of Six Flags’ Déjà Vu coasters. Location wise, apparently they are getting the one from Six Flags Great America which is physically closer and said to be the operationally more sound than the SFOG counterpart. Honestly, I kind of thought Silverwood was a little smarter than to buy a used ride that has been described as a maintenance nightmare for years, unless this ride comes with some modifications and a new warranty from Vekoma. Size wise, this ride will certainly be a major icon for the park who’s smaller crowds will work better with the longer reload cycles associated with this ride. Anyone know more?
