Crazy_Behemoth_Lady_Jess Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 As you may have heard from another post of mine, I have an "unofficial" coaster club at school. Tracks For Wishes is a fundraising event for the Make-A-Wish Foundation and Give Kids The World. To fundraise, members of the club collected pledges and rode Coaster at Playland for as many times as possible in 2 hours with only short breaks for washroom, food, and water. We have raised a total of $564.70 (CAD) from this event which was be split between Make-A-Wish Foundation and Give Kids The World. That's why it's called "tracks" for wishes. The group. We had to share the train with everyone else because this was not an official Playland/Make-A-Wish/GKTW event. Despite the full train, Coaster is a walk-on most of the time. Lunch time. Train on transfer track. After 2 hours and 35 laps around, we made a finger star. Group high five.
sclisso Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 I think this would be awesome. Ride Coasters all day for charity. How many times did you ride?

There was abit of a delay because they had to let the train rest for a bit so it doesn't wear out the wheels and station brake.
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 This looks like a cool event. I think Wild Waves should do a similar event with Timberhawk.
