you can't win with the start thing no matter which way you go...you offend christians by putting the logo because the star is "traditional" and "representational" but you offend everyone else by putting a star and saying they don't allow "room" for other religions. Some see a tree with a logo while some see the mountain logo. It leaves room for interpretation which i think is cool.

just because i'm in entertainment doesn't mean i'm clueless besides my best friend works Vortex and i know a lot about it, besides i bet over half the people on this site has never and will never work in the park and i bet 80 percent arn't in operations...
-
you made it into entertainment already? I thought we weren't going to find out till january! Oh wait...unless ur a techie...
-
but it doesn't really matter for either of those rides because scooby's ghoster coaster (zoom...as u call it) is gone and tom cat's taxi jam is leaving .
-
That's not a very high demand ride as far as the metal goes...there is little stress on the coaster and tom cat's taxi jam isn't really high demand either...or speed, i really wouldn't want to ride a coaster going like 50-60 mph or higher in the chilly winds we've got now and i really wouldn't trust any loops or e breaks in this kind of weather...also i think it depends on how the ride is run, Vortex for example is run off of air and pressure so if it's cold pressure won't be as good and the ride isn't as safe as it once was.

the winterfest parade i feel is just as fun and exciting!
-
actually the parade starts near the santa's christmas town in nick central goes around the tower and ends at The Beast...
-
Yeah but i mean u have to keep in mind too that people quit because conditions get kind of brutal sometimes, we get punched and hit and when we started we had 20 people in our maze, by the second day we had 14 and by the last we had 12, we had one girl running 3 scares, she slammed a door slid open a window yelled then ran down to this desk and slammed it and back to the door she went! She was fantastic. But we had a girl get punched and she quit. Some people got moved...it was bad, but we had soo much fun, i miss it but i think that parade for winterfest is fun too because i actually get to be pretty and not ugly.
-
oh my bad i'm just a kid, but i wanted a number not a lot of people, i didn't need to know for tickets i work there, i needed to know so i know what to expect, traffic wise and staff parking wise and all that fun stuff.

Does anyone know what the max. capacity is for winterfest?
-
that's gotta be blistering cold, riding the scrambler in winter time...i'd rather not!

PKICentral Exclusive: Winterfest!

Everyone should come see the parade, It's fun, upbeat, and magical...santa makes a special apperance! Enjoy and remember all the fun of christmas and winter time! -
We couldn't start that early this year because that is harsh on the actors. We started getting ready at 1 and would work untill 1 in the morning that's a 12 hour shift for two days in a row and trying to get up on monday and go to school or work was horrible. Especially when u wake up and you've got no voice. I also don't think he should judge fearfest of the two crappiest houses. Ok clue for you all...if the line is short it must not be that good, if the line is long it must be fantastic!! I was in massacre manor and we were told many times that we were the best house...people were truly honestly scared in that house. Just because he is 40 doesn't mean he can't be scared, i made a 38 year old man so scared in our house he crapped his pants...gross but true. But i also agree with some of the others maybe you should have considered comming more then 1 day if u have had a pass for so long and enjoy each one on a diffrent day. Then i feel like you could have made a more informed and valued judgement although u are highly entitled to what you said. I really in short could care less because i worked my butt off i had fun and i got paid weather you enjoyed it or not, either way Kings Island wins because u came and u paid so that's all i have to say.

Winter Fest attraction?
lostgirl replied to Face/OffJZ's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
yeah they do have ice skating and i do believe it's real ice...ther were installing freezing devices on monday....at least that's what i think they were. Anyway they will have ice skating that musical a parade, meet and greet santa and christmas lights out the wazoo. Some rides will be open like the carosel but i can't imagine anyone wanthing to ride anything fast it's going to be really cold. You can also meet santa at the old imagination station in HB. Kings Island will also have one of a kind unique gifts that would be great for the holidays. -
It wouldn't take hardly any money to re-open again. They never let everything get in bad condition. They host stuff up there sometimes. I've seen people up there eating with their Kings Island, kings dominion, and carowinds shirts on. We used to go in there to get water for our waterbottles for fear fest and we practice up there for winterfest sometimes and everything still looks new and it's sooo clean. So it wouldn't take like any money other then buying more food to re open.

Killer santa?? I don't think so...The park has been made extremely family oriented so if you want to believe santa is going to murder elves knock urself out...but not at winterfest! -
yeah but it is amazing what all they can get done without anyone even knowing it. I work there and they build alot of fearfest stuff behind the scenes then move it where it needs to be. I bet a lot of those buildings are already being built or are already built and just need to be moved. Kings Island is usually ready for just about anything so i'm sure they are completely ready for something that was planned for. Although it may differ from years in the past who knows...change may just be a good thing!

I have to agree with him, when my manager isn't trying to watch out for crazy people and asking them to leave or calm down he's either trying to fix a prop check up on all our actors and their safety walking through to check on the visitors safety and making sure nothing is falling off the walls or stolen. He's constantly running around with a staple gun and tape trying to get our house to last untill matinence can get to it.

Yes that would be gay pride day and no fear fest events will be running that day. THE PARK WILL NOT BE OPEN TO GENERAL PUBLIC FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 30! Anyways dry run night is tonight and i'm so excited only 2 days till it's offically open. After practice yesterday everyone was raving about massacre manor you should all check it out asap! It's nothing like last year! NOTHING like last year. I suggest also going through headless hollow, it's an excellent concept but other then that everything else is pretty much the same! There is a crawl tunnel in psycho path for those of you who were guessing! Let me know what you all think when u get the chance, and corn stalkers is amazing, scary scary stuff. At least i liked it.

haha i would except i'm in fearfest! Hahahah! Happy horrors to you all!!

I am a charachter in fearfest and we arn't allowed to touch people for any circumstance, because of lawsuits and stuff like that. Honestly Hauntguy i really don't think u always know what you are talking about, u may have taken pictures, and seen it before it's done, but they empty WWC after it is out of use every season so that the water does not freeze during the winter and create damage that could cost the park a lot of money. Just because it's empty doesn't mean u can walk in it!
