My suspicion is that since they installed many of their rides in a few parks, they got a deal on a multi ride purchase. With that deal, they were able to give KI the opportunity to get two.

Now that we are well into the season, let's have an Adventure Port photo contest. "Kings Island Adventure Port Photo Contest" Rules: Only 1 picture per post. (If there is more than one, the whole post will be removed.) The pictures should only be pictures of Adventure Port. (All others will be removed.) A max of 4 submissions. (Any additional submissions after will be removed.) All photos must be your own. (No pictures from websites or any other sources.) All photos must abide by the Terms of Service and all park rules (for example, any pictures taken as a result of trespassing or any that are taken on rides that prohibit photography/lose articles will not be accepted and will be removed and possible loss of posting privileges.) To make it fairer, please do not post pictures from areas that only employees can get to. (Tour locations like Coasterstock are fine.) Small edits on pictures are fine, but nothing over the top, please. Double posting will be excused in this thread. Only Likes will be counted, not any other emotion. The most important rule: HAVE FUN! The contest will be judged by the members. So if you love a submission, vote for it with a like. You can vote on as many as you want. This will run until July 31st at Midnight. The winner will get to order a free KIC shirt as their prize, their photo used on KIC social media, and bragging rights! Good luck!

I agree. The poor call center this fall.

Fixed it. Thanks!

Moved this discussion into its own thread.

There might be a high hope that you forget you purchased that extra protection. Like buying a gift card for a restaurant, and forging your have it.

Fury 325 Support Failure
IndyGuy4KI replied to Oldschool75's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Looks like it might be testing soon! Thank goodness for B&M engineering. Can we say if this same scenario had happened to another manufacturer, it would have ended without injuries? -
Thanks to all who have expressed their feelings about Don no longer working at KI. Don has been an instrumental part of the history at Kings Island, not only as an employee but as a park enthusiast. He became an employee almost right after Cedar Fair bought the park. He has showcased his knowledge and his love for the park, guests, and enthusiasts alike. This is a very emotional subject for all KI enthusiasts brining about negative and positive feelings forward. As the park's biggest supporters (KIC members), we are also just as passionate about its success going forward. We all want to see that position filled with the same enthusiasm, passion, and love Don demonstrated every day. Even though we know that is going to be a tall order to fill, let's hope they can find that person. From here on out, this threads subject will be about Don and not get into other subjects or people. Thanks KIC Staff.

If Nick's ride op source is correct, is the cuts because money is not rolling in this season as much as they wanted? Have we seen the gate prices drop because of this?

That is a great idea.

I wonder if anything will be hinted in the Q2 report. IndyGuy4KI cross threading a bit.

Unless this is the strategy to help Q3 results?

Pick one chain to buy out Fun Spot

I would not rule out Gene from Indiana Beach. He has 3 in his portfolio now. -
Yeah, I would say per caps and attendance is down so far this season.

Colonial Vibes- silver2005's VA/MD trip TR and Planning
IndyGuy4KI replied to silver2005's topic in Trip Reports
I hope they restore the rest of the track work next off season. -
For those that want to learn more about Don. https://kicentral.com/the-racers-record-setting-don-helbig/

No, actually a small group of us were chatting about how much work goes into the event. Someone in the group (that was not me) said why don't we give him a card at the event. So I ordered the card, since I had the files of him on The Racer we used. I ordered one of those big cards so everyone at the event could sign it. We had no idea at the time, but it sure makes us happy we did since the reigns have been handed over to Chad for the event.

Don Helbig is no longer with Kings Island. He is heading into a new chapter of pursuing some of his other passions. KICentral wishes him all the best of luck in his career, and we look forward to seeing him on the forums. Let's use this thread to add stories of Don during his time at Kings Island.
