    Like everyone else that has heard this news today, I am also very shocked and saddened. Just one week prior we were all having fun at Holiwood Nights 2010. Its all surreal that this is happening today. I am glad to have met such a nice, caring and generous man that cared about his park and the customers who walked through the gate. He didn't smile unless there were smiles on the faces of everyone of his park guest and that is what he lived for. He will be missed by everyone who has met him and everyone that will learn about him and how he created Holiday World as it is today. I am blessed to have gotten to speak with him at the 3 Holiwood Nights events that I attended including the most recent. My group had stopped Will on Saturday night of the event to talk and get pictures taken. I am now glad that we did that. I also have a video of his speech from Friday night in the Picnic grove. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_SEwjPPUTc Rest in Peace Will I hope heaven has the best roller coasters for you to ride... -Jeff

    I apologize. I asked on Thursday and got a what I call a rude response this morning. Had the poster that I called an ass read my question he didn't have to even respond if he didn't know. When I posted earlier, I hadn't received the mail yet today. I posted that because you asked (Jew). Now that I know the date, please disregard my question.

    Hey BpMitchell.....no need to be an ass. She was invited but wasn't told the date, we got the mailer for the invitation to the media day so attitude can be dropped.

    Would anyone happen to know when media day might be? Suppose to be going with my girlfriend who is covering the event for another site.

    ^That shot was from the Sky Ride in the evening just before sundown. I got a lot of great pics at sunset. I used a Canon Point and Shoot 7.1 Mega Pixel camera. My friend has a 10 Mega Pixel Rebel but we didn't want to carry that around all day. I love how all my pictures turned out after editing them. This is done with basic software that comes on the computer.

    Happy Jacks is one of the best haunted attractions I have ever been through. Its really creepy and well done. The fact that it is a permanent installment helps it out a lot. It will hit a cord with anyone that had fears of clowns or creepy looking dolls. The end is really creepy and makes you think what CP was thinking when they designed it. A disappointment though was they took out vortex tunnels now. I loved walking though those and feeling disoriented. As for the photos, some are edited on a PC running Windows 7 and others using iPhoto on a MAC.

    On Sunday November 1st, 2009 my friend Katie and I headed up for a day at the Point. We decided to take them up on the $15 Bring a Friend deal which also included early entry. We arrived at the park just about 10 am. We got a walk on ride of Maverick before we started to head up to the front of the park to find golden tickets which we found none throughout the whole day. Pretty decent day to go to the Point. Light crowds and not more than 15 minutes on most rides all day. Maverick got a 35 minute wait later in the evening as the Fright Zones came to life. Since it was 40 degrees and no wind, the fog settled in to make a very eerie Halloweekends setting and made for one of my best Maverick rides ever. We also got to see the Chris Linn Magicomedy show at the newly renamed Jack Aldrich theater. We ended the day by getting the last train of the season on Magnum XL 200. There is just something about going and riding coasters in the brisk cold fall that makes them that much better. It was a great way to end a already great season and I wish I could go back and do it again. My Best friend and I before our last ride on Demon Drop The ending blows ur mind This was one of the creepiest haunted houses I have ever been through, but it was excellent Greeter at the Boeckling Estate The Boeckling house was great. I really like what they can do with a permanent house.

    Exactly, A little donation can go a long way to make someone smile. I am up to $105, I would love just to get above $250 before the event if I can't make the big goal of $1000.
  13. Y2J2003Y2J
    That would rule out a B&M then since they don't build over 230 ft.

    Hello everyone, Thanks Big Mike for posting this and donating to this worthy cause. Coasting for Kids will be an event held at Cedar Point on August 26th. That day in support of our cause and raising money we will be riding Gemini all day from 7am til 5pm. Our goal before the event is to raise as much money as we can before going. Give Kids The World Village (GKTW) is a 70-acre, non-profit resort in Central Florida that creates magical memories for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families. GKTW provides accommodations at its whimsical resort, donated attractions tickets, meals and more for a week-long, cost-free fantasy vacation. With the help of many generous individuals, corporations and partnering wish-granting organizations, Give Kids The World has welcomed more than 97,000 families from all 50 states and over 68 countries. Please help out by going to http://www.firstgiving.com/jeffmccabe I know the economic times are tough right now and everything but think about this. The economy will recover and get better, those children won't. Lets give them this so they can enjoy some fun in life because they deserve it. Thank You, Jeff McCabe

    This looks really fun. I can't wait for May to get here now. Hope they have ERT at Holiwood Nights for this thing. This will be my first water coaster when I ride it.

    Hello everyone, On August 26th I will be participating in a event at Cedar Point called Coasting for Kids. We will be riding Gemini all day in support of Give Kids the World. My goal before the event is to raise as much money as I can get. So far I have only raised $75 to date. Any amount will help and its for a good cause. All you have to do is go to my fund raising page at http://www.firstgiving.com/jeffmccabe Click on the sponsor me link found on the page. The money you donate will go directly to Give Kids the World. I have 2 weeks to do this, so please help me raise as much money toward my goal as possible! Thank You -Jeff McCabe

    They just painted all those picnic tables over the weekend at Holiday World, so I don't know if that will still be there!!!

    I don't know why you are complaining. I also received one of these Bags O' Crap and was happy with it. I might never get to some parks in my lifetime so it was cool to get a whole bunch of brochures from all over the world. The fact is you shouldn't be complaining about something that is FREE. Robb took the time and money to put together this stuff and you complain. I for one love my Bag O' Crap and would like to thank Robb and Elissa for all they do. If you don't like, send it back.
  20. Y2J2003Y2J
    I just want to let you know that you look hot Elissa.
  21. Y2J2003Y2J
    Sweet! I can't believe I won a bag. Thank You so much. I just sent you an email with my mailing address.
  22. Y2J2003Y2J
    Happy Birthday Big Mike!!!!! I hope to see you at CoasterMania this year again.

    Its Eerie, the teaser going to commercial talking about if they fall behind and have to delay the opening to the park it would create losses. Boy did they lose big time and not from opening late.

    Hey Big Mike, Did you get my PM?
