BrownStreak Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 (edited) Hi all, Just found out my assigned ride this summer is Demon Drop- ya'll stop by and say hello (and see that I am not as odd as some on here think that I am). Note: My nametag will say "Ray- Cleveland State University" not BrownStreak (gawd- why did I choose that name?). Anyone else from the site working at a park this summer that would like to let TPR readers know their locations?

lapseofreason Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I haven't gone overboard on mentioning it, so I'll jump in. If you look to your left and below you, I'm working at Cedar Point this summer. I'm 99% sure I'll be on the CP&LE Railroad (the train); if this changes I'll let you guys know. My name tag'll read "Amanda - Fairport Harbor, Ohio" and if you have no idea what I look like, go to www.myspace.com/amandavincelli. Hope to meet some TPR people (finally) this summer!

BrownStreak Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 Maybe we should have a CP-TPR Member Social or something- there's already five of us who have replied as working there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goliath513 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Tyler and Robby - you guys should switch positions for one day since you're identical twins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamscottevil Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I always wanted to work at magic mountain cause I live 3 miles away, but never found an excuse to apply. Maybe if things go bad this summer, I can use the extra money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownStreak Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 Do any of the CP guys (or gals) know that the Pre Opening Week Employee Ride Night rides are yet? I won't pop up until Thursday or Friday (8th or 9th)- work wise as I have 1.5 finals left next week and I am working at least Mon & Tue at my campus job.

ScubaSteve442 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Yup. I work at a B&M coaster this year. Far better than an Intamin/PTC woodie. I no longer feel like if I forget something that all my riders are gonna die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrownStreak Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 I didn't even know that there WERE ride nights before opening.... cool! Don't get too excited- the Pre-Opening Ride Nights are usually the less popular/easy to learn rides. When I worked there in '99 one of the 1st nights was Chaos/Trioka/Ski Jumper thingy and Power Tower was later on. Raptor in the Dark was a few weeks into the season. Its mostly a matter of its harder to learn the bigger attractions. Later in the season they have a night party in the water park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CycloneMan Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I should be up at Batman at Six Flags Great Adventure this summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I'll be working at SFGAm this summer. I got an internship with the park at a park operations lead. So I'm hoping to receive further details as to my assignment but I know I'll be covering multiple rides as I'm overseeing an entire section. I leave from here in Boston on the 19th so I'll be starting shortly there after. JUTS FYI, SFGAm is the only six flags park i know that has internships which include housing for a small fee. The rest of the parks i was looking at besides Cedar Fair were not offering housing. I was also offered an internship at BGE but they wanted to place me at the mary go round and the traidwinds (or however you spell it). I declined because I really wanted to work with coasters. Im looking forward to heading to IL, is anyone else going to be working there? Let me know because I've never been out there and its all going to new.

Not For Sale Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I'll be at Adventureland on the weekends. I can be working any of the rides, so all 0 people coming out to the park keep an eye out for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ConleyKE Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Retail Team Lead at SFKK. I'm usually on the backside, either in or just outside of the waterpark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reon Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I'll be working rides at Coney Island (Cincy) for the third year. I'd switch to KI, but I want to see if I can move up the ladder into some management position in a few years. Oh yeah, my name tag will read "Jared" Hope to see you guys there sometime.
