The roller coaster was originally named Big Dipper and was a part of a large upgrade to the entrance of the park. During this same year, new entrance turnstiles were installed, a new gate was constructed, Mad Mouse was built, and new buildings were constructed.[1]
In 2020, the Big Dipper was to be relocated to the Camp Snoopy section of the park, and was to be renamed the Woodstock Express. It reopened in 2021.
