Snoopy Bounce

Snoopy Bounce
1999-2019

Snoopy Bounce was a giant inflatable bounce house designed for kids to jump, play, and have fun. The attraction allowed younger guests to safely bounce and move around inside the large inflatable structure.

Cedar Point continued to expand throughout the 1990s with several major attractions.

Mean Streak opened in 1991 as the tallest and fastest wooden roller coaster in the world. Challenge Park opened in 1992 as Cedar Point's extreme thrill park. Riders would get drenched in 1993 with the addition of Snake River Falls.

In 1994, Raptor soared onto the Main Midway as the tallest, fastest, and longest inverted roller coaster in the world. Cedar Point celebrated its 125th anniversary in 1995. Riders would stand up while riding Mantis in 1996.

In 1997, Cedar Point added a new spinning ride called Chaos. Power Tower became the world's tallest drop tower in 1998. All of these new attractions were great additions, but expansion would continue in 1999.

On Friday, November 13, 1998, Cedar Point announced that Camp Snoopy would open for the 1999 season. The new kids’ area would feature seven rides, a food stand, a new outdoor theater, and a new roller coaster.

The area would be themed around the Peanuts franchise.

Camp Snoopy would consist of eight rides: Camp Bus, Balloon Race, Lolli Swing, Tilt-A-Whirl, Red Baron, Woodstock Express, Peanuts 500, and Snoopy Bounce.

Six of the new rides could be
enjoyed by the entire family.

Snoopy Bounce was built on the former location of Super Himalaya.

To make room for Snoopy Bounce, Super Himalaya was relocated next to Corkscrew.

Snoopy Bounce was a giant bounce house designed for kids. The attraction also served as a memorable landmark, welcoming families to Camp Snoopy.

Snoopy Bounce was located at the entrance to Camp Snoopy on the Gemini Midway.

Due to the nature of the ride, Snoopy Bounce was reserved for children between 36 inches and 54 inches tall.

Ride Experience

The Snoopy Bounce experience began with guests entering the ride’s queue, which was located behind the attraction.

After waiting in line, guests would arrive in the staging area. In this area, the kids would remove their shoes to get ready for the ride.

Kids could jump and play inside Snoopy Bounce for about three minutes before their turn ended.

Kids loved Snoopy Bounce. It was a unique attraction that focused entirely on fun and play.

After the ride ended, the ride operator would guide the kids to exit Snoopy Bounce.

Snoopy Bounce's Legacy.

Snoopy Bounce was a fun and enjoyable experience for kids. While it wasn’t a thrilling ride, it gave younger children or those hesitant about the “bigger rides” a safe and entertaining option.

Snoopy Bounce was the last remaining ride of its kind when it closed in 2019. Similar attractions were also found at other Cedar Fair parks, including Knott's Berry Farm (1983–2013) and the Mall of America. A related ride called Snoopy Moon Bounce was also located at Kings Dominion and Dorney Park. All of these rides have since been removed.
