Charlie Brown's Rushing River Log Ride is a Log Flume built by US manufacturer Arrow Development and later refurbished by Hopkins. It is currently located at Kings Island in Mason, Ohio, USA and previously operated at Coney Island in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.

History

The ride first opened at Coney Island in 1968 as Log Flume. When the park closed, it was among the many rides relocated to Kings Island for its opening in 1972. The attraction was standing but not operating for the 2000 season. It reopened in 2001 as The Wild Thornberrys River Adventure, following a refurbishment by Hopkins.[1] In 2010, the name was changed to Race For Your Life Charlie Brown.

A water wheel prop was readded to the ride for the 2022 season.[2]

As part of the new Camp Snoopy area, the ride was renamed Charlie Brown's Rushing River Log Ride for the 2024 season.[3]
