cgodsey Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Hey all! I just wanted to post a list of our upcoming events for 2006. We will have concrete days for all of the events by January 1st. We hope to see you at an event! MARCH SFMM Event- If Tatsu is open by then, we will be hosting a large scale event that weekend. If not, we will be doing 2 hours of morning ERT on 2-3 coasters like in the past. The park intends on having Tatsu done by Solace, but you never know what could happen. As soon as we know something, I will post it. If Tatsu is NOT open by Solace, we will be hosting a large scale event when it does open later in the year...probably in April/early May. MAY- Attend Holiwood nights and enjoy The Voyage! JUNE Texas Trek- Right now the plan is to spend a total of 5 days on this trip. We will probably give participants the option to begin in Memphis on Friday. We will leave from Memphis and visit Magic Springs on the way to Texas and try out their new coaster. Then, we hit SFOT, SFFT, SeaWorld, and Schlitterbahn with a visit to some of the sights along the way (Alamo, Riverwalk, Kennedy Museum). July- No events planned. AUGUST- New York Trek- The plan is to start off with the New York City area parks. We will hit Coney Island and Rye in one day and have one full day to sightsee! We hope to hit all big tourist attractions and catch a broadway show. Then, we head south and hit Clementon and the piers in Wildwood. Finally, we hit Six Flags Great Adventure and check out the new El Toro. The trip will run from Friday-Tuesday. SEPT- Coaster Conclave- It's back. The two finalists for this event are Kennywood/Conneaut Lake/Waldameer and Silverwood/Puyallup Fair. Both events would be pretty awesome to say the least. Please make plans to join us in early September. Night of Thunder 3 at Dollywood- Join us for the third installment of this great event! Come ride the new Timberrr Tower and the World's number one rated wooden coaster! LATE FALL Super Secret Event! This is one I will keep secret for now. If it happens, it will be one event you can't miss! Let me know your thoughts on these events. We should have concrete dates by January 1st. I want to have them all set in stone so we dont collide with other events going on. Thanks! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 I wouldn't have believed that Tatsu thing, until I saw it with my own eyes just now while running errands, check out the Tatsu thread when you have a chance and see that it does have a chance of opening by March! BTW, sounds great Chris! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 MAY- Attend Holiwood nights and enjoy The Voyage! I'm thinking from the event name that night rides will be available? If so, I'm in! dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaparri Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 All sound like solid events. The New York trek catches my eye the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 The SFMM event (in March) is do-able for me... The New York event sounds good and opssibly the Dollywood and/or Holiwood nights are other options that are do-able for me! Thanks for puting these events together!

dougr Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 SEPT- Coaster Conclave- It's back. The two finalists for this event are Kennywood/Conneaut Lake/Waldameer and Silverwood/Puyallup Fair. Both events would be pretty awesome to say the least. Please make plans to join us in early September. If you are at Puyallup in early September, you can also hit the Pacific National Exhibition in Vancouver, which is on for 17 days ending Labo(u)r Day. Even if you aren't there for the Fair, there is still a Carl Phare design woodie, a Vekoma corkscrew and a Canadian-built Giant mouse. Plus a few flats like Enterprise, a 202 S&S tower, a Huss top spin and a Huss frisbee. And Enchanted Village is on the way with a couple of coaster credits. Plus, three hours south you have Oaks park in Portland, Oregon with a Pinfari ZL42 (31 foot loop) and a KMG Fireball (120 degrees up!)

cgodsey Posted December 5, 2005 Author Share Posted December 5, 2005 According to what I have been told, they intend on having the entire ride structure of Tatsu done by Feb 1st. I dont know if that will give them enough time to wire and test, but we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_rock401 Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Wow. I had been wondering ever since Tatsu was announced on whether that thing was going to be ready for Solace weekend. Paul "Reconsidering his California decision" Miller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Is Holliwood Nights a Ride World event, or a park sponsored event, like SRM was? dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgodsey Posted December 6, 2005 Author Share Posted December 6, 2005 Holiwood nights is HW's park sponsored event that is scheduled for May 26th and 27th. But this year will be a little different than past events. Clubs that have formed a "partnership" with the park will be allowed to attend and also receive the ticket and season pass discounts throughout the year. We are a partner with them so our members will be able to attend. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Hey Chris, Looking forward to seeing you both again at your 6FMM event. Last years was great. Thanks for the reminder to renew my Ride Warrior card. Boy I hope your right about the "Tatsu" opening. That would make for an awesome event! Guy "I will be at your home park at the end of the month. Praying for warm weather." Koepp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
