Way ahead of you on that bucko I have allready talked with Him about it He very well aware of the last rides. and actually its 8:00 depends on how long the line is and how many trains. Last year everyone who attend got at least 2 rides before the season ended. Expect the same this year.
-
So you have to be 15 to work at the park? I thought that it was 16. 15 to work at the park 16 to work rides.

Jasper just because the season is over doesnt meen you cant take a drive over to the park and knowing it will be waiting for you in 2011 . I have been to KI many of times durring the off season and when I go I know I can't ride but I know I'm at Kings Island.

I wish one person was working at the park today and thats Don Miller he had Class always said hello to you and if you worked under him everyone was equal. But he retired and he has moved on and is enjoying his retirment. Kings Island is a great place to work I have worked both in the park and behind the scenes so I know how the entire park is ran on a daily bases. I have been to places in the park ware most people dont get to see and do everyday. I have seen the park being set up for the season ive seen it being put away for the winter. It turely is a wonderful place to work but keep in mind you will have ur ups and downs working at the park.

Yea I fugired that I didnt need a new card for 2011 but I know when u buy a new pass from Dollywood or Holiday World they ask u if u are a season pass holder when I renewed my HW season pass for 2011 they asked if i was a season pass holder and they just put a 11 sticker on it no need to reprocess and get a new card so im all set for the 2011 season for next year. Now my Six Flags 2011 pass is from Great adventure and I can tell you the passes are thinner. and it does say on the back the 2011 SF pass A regular season parking pass is only valid at the park where it was purchased.

Kept the same card I don't think ill be going to Carowinds till next year I might go to Kings Dominion next week havent decided yet but it was easy just type in your 20 diget number on the back of your pass and its easy no need to go to the park and get a new card made i tried to renew it thru KIs web site and this is what i got LOL. Errors were found in your submission: The pass entered belongs to Carowinds not Kings Island. Renewals must be made on the website of the park where the original pass was purchased. If you wish to renew this pass, you will need to transfer to the Carowinds website. This will empty your shopping cart and begin a new order. If you wish to renew your Carowinds Season Pass click here. If you want to purchase a Kings Island Season Pass click here. Kinda Funny how the whole Gate central thing works LOL.

they are Mine is renewed thru Carowinds. Got mine renewd for 90 bucks for the 2011 season. and Dollywood season passes go on sale Nov 6th so im def renewing I only went 2 times this year im sure after KI closes ill be going at lest a few times I think this is the last year for Babes in Toyland.

Thats why I have gotten ahold of the right person and told him how the inconvenience is and can assure you that it wont EVER happen again. Like I told my friends Before if there is a proplem with the park dont be afriad to tell your feelings. Because I Remember Mr. Scheid saying at 2nd meeting with the tax thing that ANY GUEST WHO WALKS IN MY PARK IS NUMER 1 and he is responsible for every guest that walks in Kings Island.

Ever since 2003 Kings Island got Gate Central and I have been so fascinated by it and how it really works. It was created by 2 guys who worked for Paramount Parks it was first tested at Great America the Cedar Fair park in Northern Cali. After it was tested at CGA when the 03 season started KI was the first park to use this new system. Now since KI is owned by Cedar Fair they have kept this amazing system and used it at all of there parks. I know people who post on here have had trouble with there passes scanning at other sister parks but there is a reason behind why they dont and I finally gotten a answer on this. As you know Our park opens in late April but there are sister parks that open before KI. Resson is Knotts is the only year round CF park in the chain and because of this ur Platt pass is acually valid till the first week in March. I have had Friends who have went to Knotts and used there KI platt passes from last year and it worked but it becomes invalid after that first week. Now my pass this year is from Carowinds so I've been getting mail from Carowinds all season and I haven't had one prop this season as far as going to GR and getting a ticket to enter the park except Michigan's Adventure there still on the old CP system and they are the last CF park to get Gate Central. Now this past Sunday I tok a trip to the Admissions Office and wanted to know how many times I've been to Kings Island and to other sister parks. I kid you not it pulled up my info all the way from 2003 it shows you how many times I visited the park what time my pass was scanned and so on. It shows if you visited other sister parks to. Like I said its a really neat system and how it works. So next time u visit a Cedar Fair park and your pass is scanned a number will show up thats how many times you have visited that park. When my they saw how many times I have visited the park witch didnt surprise them but when the other sister parks showed up they went DANGGGG LOL. I Know a lot of you guys count how times you go to KI so next time look for that Number on the screen to see how many times you have been to Kings Island this year or any CF park. The number shows up after your picture.

Knott`s Berry Coaster Accident
pkiboy replied to Colonel_SoB_fan's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
You should see what happens when Kingda Ka rollsback people actually leave the station. I guess New Jersey people have a differet vibe than the ride in Sandusky. Cuse you don't hear AWWWWW when KA rollsback its just a different Vibe. -

pkiboy replied to RaptorGuy's topic in Kings Island
I forgot to ask Kinzel last night if Winterfest was comming back. O wait I know that answer..............NO. Darn and I passed by him twice last night. I wanted to tell him that his baby in Sandusky was making Lots of Nickels but Every Full timer was in Freak mode cuse He was there. Never in my life have I seen people afriad of there own Boss. He was there Friday. -
Most likely it is. Almost all professional fireworks shows are computer-controlled these days both because of the syncing with the music and because it's a lot safer. Adam, how did you get access to record this? Its not my video. But I have been back there before ware the launch pad is its really neat how there shot off every night. I have no clue how to upload videos on youtube im clueless to that stuff just so everyone knows.

They are I have most of the Spiels u are talking about from when I worked at the park. Most of them are on a cd plus I have all 3 versions of the Nick prade music the 2005 and 06 version from KI and the 07 version from Carwoinds. If I have time this winter ill go over to Storage and dig around for the Cds they are on since I last moved I Just kinda threw them in a box. But yes to answer your question they are around and people do have them. Im not the only one who has them. I have before sent Dragsters Arms down speail to other Kicers and MFs station music as well as other coaster music but since I lost my last phone on a coaster witch was Dominator at Kings Dominion that had most of my Coaster music and speails on it. Snowman wish granted LOL http://www.youtube.com/user/KingsIslandOnline?blend=2&ob=1#p/u/4/YnyspXM67ko
