[3] On February 20, 2010 (about 4:00 p.m.), a fire broke out in the toy store of main street after its roof collapsed due to the weight of ice and snow.
The fire went out of control and engulfed the corner portion of Main Street and destroyed the section that encompassed the bingo parlor, restaurant, toy store, games area and arcade.
The park opened as planned on April 24, 2010, with the east side of Main Street completely cleared to dirt surrounded by a chain link fence.
All of Main Street was rebuilt when the park opened in April 2011 and featured an even larger arcade with an indoor ride, and a smaller BINGO hall.
On September 6, 2013, Adventureland posted on their official Facebook page that a new attraction called Storm Chaser would be added.
Park officials also stated that it would be replacing the aging Silly Silo due to that ride's frequent down time and the company no longer making parts to fix it.
On December 11, 2018, Adventureland announced on its Facebook page that it will be adding Phoenix, a $6 million spinning coaster from Maurer Rides.
On September 8, 2021, Adventureland announced their plans to remove the Lighthouse, Lady Luck and Falling Star due to the parts are no longer available.
In February 2023, Adventureland announced that Raging River will close permanently after consulting with the ride manufacturer and reviewing the safety guidelines to meet the operating standards.

A $10 admission (with free parking) included one beer and access to a limited selection of rides and attractions during this one day event.
