Trying to absorb new parks has made short-term concerns Paramount. But if Cedar Fair can work its tortoise-pace magic on these parks, they will become a long-term asset. The big dividend will provide gravy into high-interest environments.

Longstanding history of quality operations....took over a slew of new parks last year...I think they will spread the quality and bring in the profit- a hefty dividend with a long term history doesn't hurt, either
