 Bouncing Buggies will be the new ride located in the heart of the lakefront property. The ride is being supplied by Italian manufacturer Zamperla and is from its popular Jump Around lineup.

 "It has a unique and lively action like nothing we've offered before," the park official noted. "The dune buggy themed vehicles will accommodate both youngsters and adults, making it an ideal fit for our demographic."

 Each of the six vehicles will seat up to four children or one adult and two children. As the ride spins into action, it will combine Zamperla's patent-pending interactive bouncing motion.

Other Rides From Supplier

 In 2017 Quassy acquired a new Zamperla Samba Balloon ride the park calls Up, Up & Away, and in 2012 the property added the supplier's Tea Cups, titled Crazy Cups by the park. Both are popular family attractions.

 In addition, Quassy will refurbish its Ice Cream Parlor and add light emitting diode (LED) lighting to some more existing rides within the park. Last season the Yo-Yo Super Swing ride and Tilt-A-Whirl were enhanced by the new energy-saving light packages.

 Also, a new game stand featuring basketball and ring toss will is being erected near the waterpark entrance.

 "We're always looking at ways to make the guest experience more enjoyable at the park," Anderson added. "Thanks to the continued support of our valued guests, we have been able to make vast improvements in recent years to both the land rides area as well as Splash Away Bay waterpark."
