and employees too.

Some park guests dont care at all.

When I was riding the Son of Beast and the people that were riding the front had a camera on wile going up the lift. The person in the drive box did not stop us. the train kept going. they recorded the whole ride. how could you record on the Son of Beast. it beats the crap out of you.

I only go wednesdays and satardays now.

Doesnt TR:TR have zippers so you can put your stuff in so you dont lose them.

On the Coke cans its $5.00 off

The Beast!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JASPER081691 they wont refill the pond by The Beast because people were throwing trash into it.

where would they put the addams family coaster.

Now you can get those items. When the park is getting ready to close you can get your lost item. Only if its expensive.

Well i hope they expand soon. look at all the land they have.

They even find books. I can understand people losing there hats but books. Thats wired.

L O S T I N S P A C E Things found at the park: • A set of dentures • Engagement rings • Crutches • Shoes • A retainer • Pagers • The Prayer of Jabez: Breaking Through to the Blessed Life • Jumbo playing cards

A peek inside Kings Island's lost and found Jean jackets. Books. Crutches. A glass eye. All things that have been turned in to lost and found at Paramount's Kings Island, one of the nation's largest amusement parks with approximately 3 million visitors a season. And people lose things every day at the park, says Curt Van Wagner, Kings Island operations manager of parking and security. Especially on the roller coasters. "We find or receive a few hundred items on a daily basis," he says. "Usually, people will realize right away, like after they get off a ride, or realize before they left the park that they're missing something." So in most cases, an index card-sized report can be filled out at the guest relations office and then matched up with items turned in by guests, security or janitorial staffs. Guests can come to the park to retrieve their belongings, or Kings Island will mail them to out-of-towners. "We get a lot of hats," says lost and found employee Sue Turner. "And it's always everyone's 'favorite hat.'" Digital and film cameras are some of the more expensive items lost and found at the park. Glasses, sunglasses, bank cards, towels and Midway prizes sit stacked inside boxes at the ground zero office. An address book, about the size of a cassette and covered in plush tiger-striped cloth, lays unclaimed in the "miscellaneous" bin. Two-way walkie-talkies have become popular finds lately, as have cell phones. Some questionable things, like crutches, a retainer, a set of dentures and wedding or engagement rings, leave park staff bemused. "We're not exactly sure how some people lose some of this stuff," says Turner. "Sometimes, it's a mystery." For example, a glass eye, an item fabled to have been left at the park a few years ago, was never claimed. I never saw it," says Van Wagner. "But as the story goes, it was a real one." Neither Turner or Van Wagner could recall any recent medical emergencies, like a lost bottle of pills or an asthma inhaler, but assured me that Kings Island is equipped for a scenario like that. "With as many people that visit here each year," says marketing communications manager Jennifer Bowers, "We have to be able to handle those situations." In order to alleviate some of the anxiety of losing a personal item, Kings Island stresses bringing only the essentials--not backpacks, not extra books, like the "The Prayer of Jabez" book that sat in a lost and found cubby. One story tells the tale of a worker finding a wallet with stacks of credit cards and $1,220 in cash inside. He turned the wallet in just as the owner was leaving the park, so the two were reunited. It's a park employee's job to do what is right and return lost merchandise. But what about the other 10,000 people you're at the park with? What are the chances of ever seeing the pair of $100 sunglasses that flew off your head, mid-coaster loop? Perhaps better than you think, says Turner. "Last year, someone turned in a really nice camera" says Turner. "People, for the most part, are honest." "It's nice to know that there are still people out there who will turn stuff in," adds Van Wagner.

I always start with Action Zone rides. But now since the IJST is at the park I go there first.

Do you think that the park will change?

Do you guys think that PKI is going to change as far as ride themes.

Kings Island is giong with ride themes. At least i think they are.

Somebody told me that.

what

Can you tell that Kings Island gets a major coaster every 3 to 4 years. Do you think that PKI will get a floorless coaster. I hope they do in the next 3 to 4 years. They have all that land back were The Racer is.
