jcgoble3 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 http://www.holidayworld.com/node/3591 Mrs. Koch was chuckling over this encounter from the other day. Man in park: How many of you are there? Mrs. Koch: Oh, gosh...I think we have hired about 1,700 seasonal hosts and hostesses this year. Isn't that incredible? Man in park: No, that's not what I meant. How many of you are there? Mrs. Koch: Full-time? Oh, we have close to 80 year-round staff members. Man in park: No, no, no. You! How many of you are there? First I saw you at the front gate and then you were running a ride. At lunch I saw you in the kitchen cutting a pizza. And now it's time to go home and you're here at the front gate saying good-bye to everyone. How many of YOU are there? Well, that just tickled Mrs. Koch no end. (The above was first posted on 8/7/08) Flash-forward to August of 2011 and we finally figured out a way to clone Mrs. Koch. Sort of. We've joked for years about creating a Pat Koch bobblehead. And this year, we finally did it! I remember watching them auction off the first one at HoliWood Nights this year; I think it went for $250.

KingCobra Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 It is things like this, that makes the family owned parks extra special. While family owned parks seemingly are dwindling, its great to see Holiday World thriving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
