New Knott's Berry Farm live shows created by daughter of Snoopy's creator Charles Schulz
Bicyclists soaring upside down through the air, gymnasts doing multiple, quadruple flips, a trapeze artist spinning above the crowd – then there’s this ice-skating show with a beagle named Snoopy.
All Knott’s Berry Farm offerings produced by Jill Schulz-Transki, the daughter of Charles Schulz, the man who created the Peanuts comic strip.
“I was the first person to skate in the first Snoopy costume; it was made by my mother,” the daughter recalled.
And now, Schulz-Transki’s company is producing two new, summertime shows through Aug. 23 at Knott’s, which has a long history of using Peanuts characters in the park.

Injury Risk Not Lost on Knott’s Plaintiff Who Now Suffers from Vision Problems
It was last year that Kristine Laborte, then age six, was a participant on the Timber Mountain Log Ride when she hit her head against the seatback in front, breaking a bone above her right eye. She was accompanied on the ride by her father, James, who held his daughter on his lap. The incident happened when the ride stopped suddenly at the bottom of the flume, causing both James and Kristine to slide forward. The injury, according to the family’s Amusement Park lawsuit, happened on July 27, 2014.
The plaintiffs assert the injury to their daughter could have been avoided if there were safety measures built into the ride, such as more adequate feet or leg braces installed in the interior of the log-shaped cars to prevent occupants from unexpectedly sliding forward. The Labortes also claim that better monitoring of the water levels at the bottom of the drop could have also prevented the injury to the little girl.

Throwback Thursday: Knott's Berry Farm's Kingdom of the Dinosaurs
For a short time, Knott’s Berry Farm was as much about dinosaurs as it was about Peanuts characters, fried chicken dinners and berry jam.
It’s time once again to revel in the days gone by with an attraction many who visited Southern California from 1987 to 2004 might remember, Kingdom of the Dinosaurs.
I for one can still remember with fondness the wacky, high-pitched warnings of a professor exclaiming, “You’re going back in time!” as you meander slowly into the abyss of the famed dark ride.
For those who don’t recall the ride, we hope to remedy that here with a piece of warm nostalgia pie.
