For Immediate Release: Completion: May 2009, $8 millionContact: Alan Carr, 816-691-3829; Derek Klaus, 816-691-3849
Synopsis: Just three years after unveiling its mammoth Patriot, Worlds of Fun is adding yet another roller coaster to its thrill park inventory. The wooden Prowler will zig-zag its way through the deep woods of the themepark's Africa section. The smooth, "bobsled-like" ride has an initial drop of 85 feet and peaks at a speed of 51 mph. The Prowler is the first wooden coaster constructed at Worlds of Fun since the park favorite Timber Wolf debuted almost two decades ago.
