the "no trespassing” signs. Redevelopment proposals In 2003, Olympic Gold Medalist and former professional football player Ron Brown and the Pro Players Network, a group of former and current professional athletes, formulated a proposal to purchase the park and turn it into a camp for disadvantaged youths, but this effort failed. The Oasis Themepark group announced a project in 2011 to renovate and reopen the park, but this effort failed. Other uses The park was used in the 1998 film Desert Blue, where a rising Hollywood starlet becomes "marooned" in a small desert town while on a roadtrip with her father. There, she gets to know the town's rather eccentric residents, including one whose hobby is pipe bombs and another who is trying to carry out his father's dream of building a waterpark in the desert.
