History edit

Camp Snoopy was first introduced at Knott's Berry Farm in 1983. This was the first amusement park with a section dedicated to children under 12 years old.[1]

On August 27, 2013, Camp Snoopy at Cedar Point received the relocated Frog Hopper which was renamed Woodstock's Airmail and Jr. Gemini was renamed Wilderness Run.[2] On August 16, 2017, Carowinds announced Planet Snoopy would be re-themed and expanded by six new rides to create Camp Snoopy for the 2018 season.[3]
