Explanatory Note
     Due to an administrative error, Great Wolf Resorts, Inc. (the “Company”) inadvertently omitted one nominee for director from the proxy card accompanying its definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 10, 2006. The Company has attached to this amendment a revised proxy card setting forth each of the Company’s seven nominees for director. The proxy statement and Notice of Annual Meeting being mailed to the Company’s shareholders on or about April 14, 2006 will include the revised proxy card.
