Planned Trips This Summer

[Homeboy23]

Wanted to see what everybody's plans for trips this summer are.

 

So far I have two trips in June planned:

 

From June 6 - 9 I will be hitting SFKK, Holiday World, Kings Island and Cedar Point. SFKK and Holiday World will be new parks for me.

 

June 20-26 I will be hitting the Orlando parks, including Tampa for Busch Gardens. All of these will be new to me. If I can add a couple of days I will be hitting Six Flags over Georgia.

 

And after that I should have a free hotel night from my Wyndham points, I am going to try to hit Great Adventure again this summer.

 

I searched and didn't see this posted. So, where are y'all headed to this summer?

[BamBam36]

Starting my big trip off with Holiwood Nights. Then headed to Six Flags St. Louis, Worlds of Fun and Kings Island.

 

Later in the year I'll hit Hershey Park and Knobels or La Ronde.

Haven't decided.

[Bolliger&Mabillard]

Between June 13th-21st I will be doing Hersheypark, Dorney Park, and Six Flags Great Adventure.

[coastersrule85]

I'm going to Great America June 11. Between June 19 and July 3 I'm heading to Beech Bend, Kentucky Kingdom, Holiday World, Kings Island, Cedar Point, Kennywood, Hersheypark, Knoebels, Dorney, Great Adventure, and Dollywood. I can't wait! Along with the above I'll throw in a couple of trips to SFOT and SFFT, my "local" parks.

[Chris Benvenuto]

Me and my dad are in the process of planning a 6 to 10 park trip, we'll drive out to his family reunion in Rochester, NY and then hit about 6 to 10 amusement parks on the way home. We'll start with Seabreeze and end with a two-day stay at Cedar Point it'll be the last stop before returning home to Detroit.

[CreditCrazy]

In June I'll be going to Cedar Point, Kings Island, Coney Island, Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom, Holiday World, and Jungle Jack's Landing. All of these parks (and states) will be new to me, and by the end of this year my coastercount should hit 125 (I'm at 75 right now).

[atem122]

I have a long list of places I wish I was going....but probably just sfmm and disneyland, the usual, although sfdk is a very high possibility too, I can finally get my v2, medusa and boomerang credits

[printersdevil78]

At some point in May, GF and I will head to Six Flags America to get our season passes validated. I'm angling for a weekend at Knoebel's in late May, but GF is lobbying for Dutch Wonderland so GFM&D (girlfriend's mother and daughter) can come along without our having to get a hotel.

 

In June we have a nine-day road trip during which we plan to incorporate Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom and Great America, Holiday World, Cedar Point, Kennywood and possibly Idlewild (depending on whether or not we're ready to kill each other by that point in the trip), along with some non-amusement park attractions.

 

No major plans yet for July, except I know we'll be doing a beach day during which we'll probably incorporate Trimper's Rides and the two Jolly Rogers in Ocean City, MD. And then for the bulk of August I'll be on the guaranteed awesomeness that is the TPR West Coast Trip!

 

Looking beyond summer, if I go to the same convention I did last year, I'll probably try to hit up Dorney during Haunt, and we have a WDW trip planned for January. But first thing's first: Bring on the 2009 season!

[CHILLERLC1]

My eye is on Freestyle Music Park. Then do I conquer the South?

[kidcoaster 2]

[Pufferfish]

First off, my trip in May. It will be from the 11th-17th. 11th I will be at Disney's Hollywood Studios, 12th will start out the morning at EPCOT, then go to Animal kingdom at night, 13th will start out with SWO and finish with MK. The three days after that we will be on board the Disney cruise line!

 

Later in the summer though, I have been planning a trip with members coasterguy99, coasterlvr_NC, and DarkStitch626 to do several parks from Ohio to Virginia. We would be doing it in August, just don't know the exact days yet. We would start at KI, then CP, then Kennywood, Hershey, and KD.

[stuartnz]

In July we're off to Cali for another typical tourist holiday. Disneyland, etc etc, San Francisco, Santa Cruz, typical boring stuff. Then, of course, I'm diverting my family to SFMM so I can try out Terminator and Tatsu, and check out whatever new stuff has been added since '03. I might force them to SFDK for some credits.

 

Probably missing out Knott's this time. Anyone been to Legoland? Is it worth the drive down from LA?

[Goliath513]

My friend and I are going to SoCal over Memorial Day Weekend. First to SFMM for Terminator opening. I haven't been to the park since 2007 and there are a few other credits we still need too. We might go to Hurricane Harbor if we have enough time and money. Knott's for a day since my fiend hasn't been there before and wants the credits. Finally, we will be going to Wild Rivers in Irvine since there has been the threat of it closing for a while now and it looks fun.

 

I will probably go to Waterworld here in Denver at least once. Maybe Elitch's and Lakeside once, but I really have no intention on going to either this year.

 

When I'm out in California at my parents' house, I will probably go to SFDK a few times as well.

[jan.andren]

On June 13 we are going to Germany-Austria-Italy.

Our first parks are Holyday Park and the best steel in the world EFG

 

and Trippsdrill (new park for me).After that I´m locking forward to

go on the longest alpine coaster in the world (Imst-Austria).

Last year we visited Fort Fun and I realy enjoyed Trapper Slider and

Wild Eagle.

 

Last out the main event Mirabilandia I just hope that Ispeed is ready

in the end of June.

[Emiroo]

First stop for the season will be Worlds of Fun for Prowler's opening. After that will be lots of trips to Holiday World (home park). I also should make it to Beech Bend and am going to do my damndest to make it to Kings Island this year...but I say that every year. Anything else will be bonus.

[supertrooper]

I may go back to SFOT this year. It's only 20 minutes away, but I haven't been in 4 years.

 

Other than that, the TPR Shanghai trip is all I have planned.

[Yamez]

This weekend I'm off to Kings Dominion, then a week after that I'm headed to Cedar Point. After that I'll be making trips to Kings Island and Holiday World, no other confirmed plans that I know of.

[mayberry21]

I'll be making my annual trip to Busch Gardens Williamsburg in July (can't WAIT for that!)...that's really my biggest [coaster] trip this year. I'll also be spending a lot of time at Knoebel's. I'll also most likely be going to Hershey and Dorney as well but just a few times; the Busch Gardens trip really puts a dent in my wallet each year

 

My ideal trips this year would be Kennywood and Coney Island as well but we'll see.

[Vid_w]

Mirabilandia and Gardaland for sure...

Possibly Europa park, erlebnisspark Strasswalchen and Tripsdrill...

[Speeddeamon128]

I am going to have a busy coaster summer At least once a week I will go to a local park for a day trip. For me my local parks are Clementon Park, GADV, Steel Pier, Gillian's Wonderland Pier, Playland's Castaway Cove, Dorney Park, Morey's Piers, & Hershey Park. Also June 2nd-6th I will be in Orlando for my senior class trip & we are visiting Universal Studios Florida/IOA & all of the Disney parks. Also I'm sneaking out with the Bryan & Adam show to get the Manta credit at Sea World! Hopefully the week after I will be able to get to KI as well. The highlight of my 2009 roller coaster season will be TPR's 2009 West Coast Tour & I can't wait My goal this year is to ride at least 635 coaster runs (I rode 632 last year & I want to beat it!) & get to 300 credits & with the awesome schedule I have planned it looks very possible To view my season TRs go here: www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=49605&highlight=matts+2009+roller+coaster+season
