Not sure when the schedule would be out, but I know in 2004 they opened on April 9th which was a Friday.

Usually SF posts the schedules for their seasonal parks between Jan and March (the earlier in the year the park opens the earlier they post the schedule obviously) I'd expect to see SFStL's operating schedule probably in Feb or so.
Favorite Wood Coasters: The Voyage, Ravine Flyer II, Thunderhead, Balder
Favorite Steel: Voltron Nevera, Steel Vengeance, Expedition GeForce, Olympia Looping
Parks visited: 232, Coasters Ridden: Steel: 894, Wood: 179, Total: 1073

No it was just coincidence. If Six Flags really based their operating schedule off of Catholic holidays we'd all be screwed. :shock:

SFSTL does base their opening on Good Friday. I don't know why, but they do. Look for it to be the 14th.

Schedule usually isn't up until late Jan / early Feb.
It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.

Well, if they do, the only way I would see why is because that is also Easter weekend, and it's pretty much a holiday that almost everyone celebrates no matter what religion you are (like Christmas), although I have yet to find one person that spends Easter at Six Flags. :?

I think that's where I should get my parents to take me during Spring Break. Since my birthday is in the middle of spring break, I could possibly convince them to take me down to SFSTL.

Whats wrong with that? I'll go down there for sure in April to get my SF pass then. That will shorten my offseason.

I'd end up going either opening weekend or the 14th & 15th. If I go opening weekend, we'd either have to go to the park for a few hours on that Sunday, or just go on Saturday since I have school on Monday. I think going the 14th-15th would be better cause I'd be there both days for the whole day. Since its closed the 16th, we can go back home then.

Then again, I'm probably keeping my hopes up a little too high, but I can see this working out if I can pay for the trip.
