Hawaiian Coasters 325

My Mom at church today got $95 from people at church who were donating for this. I already raised $50 before that. So I should be very close!

Was media there when they installed the last piece of track on Banshee?

Well it's official now! https://www.kingsdominion.com/blog/2020/our-crypts-are-sealed

ACE Members who joined/were members prior to December 31st are eligible to attend media day.

I got that same email!

Wait so we are calling this yellow crane big yellow? So we have T-bone and Big Yellow?

That sounds awesome! Imo top it all off with an RMC woodie built either where Vortex is (Rivertown side) or between Beast and Diamondback and it would complete Rivertown!

KD is taking yet another ride out! Edit: this is only a rumor and the park itself has not announced anything yet.

**DOUBLE POST** Here's an Instagram post from ACE today.

That's great to hear. Imo if they don't do seating that will imo take away from the food stand. Imo if you build a food stand, you have to have an area where people can sit near the food stand and be able to eat the food.

If they are in fact adding a food stand, I hope they will at least add some additional seating too. Also, in the article it mentions theming elements.

Yeah, I don't expect too many rides. My hope is since I joined ACE on Christmas that I'm able to go and get a ride on Orion (more if allowed) and then do the charity event that night (most likely). I know for MT, for the charity thing you had to raise $100 or more to attend.

Yeah. I still thank you for giving us those track updates over the summer.

Our track came from Clermont Steel Fabricators in Batavia. Not that far from KI.

You know it would be kinda cool if they played some meteor shower or something on some TV screens in the queue for Orion and maybe FOF.

Which the result of that for Banshee was I believe too many people which caused a pretty large line for Banshee. I've watched some media coverage from Banshee media day and the line looked pretty long.

@JonahWilliamson are you going to do your thing with the layout rendering?

Hoping mother nature gives us nice weather that weekend.

It turns out at NCC, it was asked why Orion was not a record breaking ride, here's Don's answer: Source: https://wgntv.com/2020/01/18/kings-island-shares-new-orion-roller-coaster-updates-and-construction-photos/

Ok I want to clarify something here. I made a mistake. I tend to get my directions mixed up. He did in fact say Mystic Timbers riders were on the right side of IS. Others were on the left. I apologise for that.

Check out this OVC video from opening day 2017, you can hear that guy in the background giving people some instructions on the loud speaker

No I believe he was told to do that. That was to help with the chaos of the hype of the new ride. He actually did not say it in that manner.

I wonder if they'll bring that guy back from the MT preview day who used the microphone and gave direct instructions on the loud speaker. "If you are headed to MT go to the left side of international street, if you aren't go on the right side of IS."

So if you were a teacher, would your whole class be about Intamin lol

I'm guessing that teacher doesn't know that there are multiple coasters that go over 90 and over 100 mph.
