[Kings Island Items In Charity Auction]

I hope you don't mind the plug here, as I thought the readers of Kings Island Central might be interested in a charity auction runing now through August 14th that supports A Kid Again. There are several very unique Kings Island items up for auction:

Original Firehawk Sign: https://givergy.us/timeout2021/?controller=lots&action=showLot&id=161 
Orion In-Park Banners: https://givergy.us/timeout2021/?controller=lots&action=showLot&id=164
Diamondback Seat & Track Section: https://givergy.us/timeout2021/?controller=lots&action=showLot&id=169
Scrambler Car: https://givergy.us/timeout2021/?controller=lots&action=showLot&id=157
Original Beast Train Lap Bar: https://givergy.us/timeout2021/?controller=lots&action=showLot&id=170

A Kid Again is a great organization that makes life for families caring for a child with a life-threatening conditions “normal” again by helping them gain back moments of positive, family-shared experiences and memories. 100% of the winning bids of these items will go to A Kid Again. 

My hope is that these items can make their way to fans of the park, while also supporting a great cause that serves our community.

It was a nice break between meetings, to say the least

[The new KI Director of Food & Beverage is...]

Hi all- Jes here. I thought I would quickly say hello to the KI Central community and share my excitement for the upcoming season- my 18th with Cedar Fair. I know how important the Food & Beverage operation is to our guests and to all of you, our most passionate fans. It's important to me as well, in part because my friends and family visit the park frequently. But also because at the end of the day, I'm a theme park nerd myself. 

I want you to know that I am absolutely committed to elevating the Food & Beverage experience at our park. Part of doing that includes seeking out feedback every day. I want to know when our team is rocking it, and when we can do better. Although I won't be an active poster in this community, I can assure you I will personally read every single comment posted here, just as I will when comments are left at Guest Services. You will see me constantly in the park, working with our team to respond to that feedback. When you see me, please feel free to say hello and tell me about your experience. I'd love to hear from you. 

Thank you for your past and future patronage, and for being such loyal fans over the years.

Jes McAdam-Sellers
