Adventureland's Raging River ride will not resume operations.
General Manager Bill Lentz announced in a letter on the adventurelandresort website that after completing a safety review the company decided not to reopen the simulated river rapids ride.
The Raging River has been closed since July 3, 2021 when 11-year-old Michael Jaramillo died following an accident on the ride. His family was in a raft that overturned and trapped members underneath. His 15-year-old brother, David, spent a month in the hospital following the accident, including his 16th birthday. Their father suffered a crushed shoulder.
