Recent Developments
On September 12, 2005, we announced the formation of a joint venture to develop Great Wolf
Lodge resort in Grapevine, Texas, at the intersection of State Highway 26 and Business
114 across from the Gaylord Texan. We will operate the resort under our Great Wolf Lodge brand.
The
six-story, approximately 400-suite resort will provide a comprehensive package of amenities and
activities. Planned amenities include a 80,000 square-foot indoor entertainment area, family
restaurants, an arcade, gift shop, confectionery, spa, fitness center, and outdoor recreation area.
Construction on the 400,000 square-foot building is scheduled to begin spring 2006 with opening
slated for summer/fall 2007.
