Thrill-seekers and philanthropists, get ready for an adrenaline-pumping opportunity that’s as heartwarming as it is exciting! Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari is gearing up for a one-of-a-kind charitable auction that promises to leave a lasting impact in more ways than one.
Picture this: the sun is shining, laughter fills the air, and the scent of adventure is palpable. It’s Friday, May 3, and Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari is set to unveil its newest attraction, Good Gravy! – a family roller coaster with a twist. But before the public can ride, there’s an exclusive opportunity up for grabs.

Holiday World is offering the chance to bid on the coveted seats of the Good Gravy! gravy boat-themed train. That’s right – ten lucky winners will secure their spots as the inaugural riders, experiencing the thrill of Good Gravy! before anyone else.
But this isn’t just about the thrill of the ride. It’s about making a difference in the community. All proceeds from the auction will directly benefit the North Spencer Community Action Center, a local charity that provides vital social services to residents in need. From food and clothing donations to healthcare and utility assistance, the Center is a lifeline for many in Spencer County.
So, what do you get if you win the auction? Alongside the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be among the first riders on Good Gravy!, winners will receive first-ride certificates, two tickets to Holiday World & Splashin’ Safari for a future visit, and the satisfaction of knowing they’ve supported a worthy cause.
Excited to get in on the action? The online auction is already underway and will run until Friday, April 19 at 12 p.m. CDT. Head over to HolidayWorld.com/auction/ to place your bid and secure your place in roller coaster history.
But what exactly is Good Gravy!? Imagine a 1,500-foot wild ride designed to save Thanksgiving dinner! Riders will embark on a thrilling journey, propelled forward up a seven-stories-tall spike before hurtling backward to make more gravy and ensure Thanksgiving is saved. With a minimum height requirement of just 38 inches and a maximum speed of 37 mph, Good Gravy! promises fun for the whole family.
So, mark your calendars, place your bids, and get ready to experience the ride of a lifetime – all while making a difference in the lives of others.
Good Gravy!, indeed!
