S500 Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 It's 2004 and the Ecology Department is off to a brand new start with some new faces. Let us know how you think the park is looking and give us some suggestions. Some of us are new to ecology and would like your input. Thanks and we hope you enjoy your visit to Paramount's Kings Island. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TowerGuy Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 The park is looking really great, especially HB. When walking, I try and find pieces of trash I can pick up and have only found trash once. Great Job Ecology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Punk Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 As of right now, PKI looks really good. I have seen much trash lying around the park. Excellent job Ecology crew! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastfreak Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 I guess its just because how much I walk around the park for my job, but I see napkins blowing around all the time still. I'll grab them and throw them out, but its still there, not like it was at post season last year. So far, I'd say good job on keeping trash cans empty and mostly everything swept up. Also, it really hasn't been busy yet. Not to say you guys won't do your job well, but I'm expecting to see many more of those napkins and cups all over the place once its warm and busy. That is unless you have 5x as many people out there sweeping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beastdude Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 I realy like how you keep the tables clean. I was getting some french frys and about to sitdown and a lady said don't sit down I will clean off the table for you. I didn't even think the table was dirty at all except for a couple grains of salt. even before she cleaned my table I thought it was pretty clean. These little things can make your day so keep it up.

coasterrz Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Stuff like this can very as others have said, depending on how crowded the park is. When the park is extremly busy, such as the gold pass bring a friend free days. The amount of trash generated just accumulates at an incredible rate, and is thus hard for ecology to keep up. So far this season the park has seemed really clean, but then again all my visits this year have come when the park was all but deserted. The one thing that wasn`t up to par this past weekend is that some of the automatic toilets in the mens room on International Street were not functioning properly.

Tables are Food Service, not Ecology. But it's nice to get some compliments either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobgun Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Ecology ROCKS!!! There really doing a great job. Keep up the good work!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fryler87 Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Sometimes is wierd places in the park (such as parts of O.C.), I can smell something that reminds me of sweetened, molding (I think) ketchup. Can anyone verify this? Where does this smell come from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TowerGuy Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Somtimes in HB when the wind is just right, you can smell the dumpster that is backstage. You can especially smell in line for and in the station of The Beastie. I don't know if this is the case in OC, but that would be my guess.

BoddaH1994 Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 I think ecology has done a great job thus far. I have also noticed a million times improvement between dry run day and last weekend as well.. The crew up at PKI seems to really be getting things together and it's looking to be a great season!

DragonLord Posted April 18, 2004 Share Posted April 18, 2004 Somtimes in HB when the wind is just right, you can smell the dumpster that is backstage. You can especially smell in line for and in the station of The Beastie. I don't know if this is the case in OC, but that would be my guess. There is a big dumpster on the other side of the fence of Beastie out of sight of the public. That's probably where it comes from. Ecology has done a great job this year, big improvments on everything from attitude to wardrobe! Also, for all employees, even if your off the clock, walking around as a guest even, take some time out to grab that napkin on the ground, or to pick up a piece of trash instead of stepping on it. Of course, if it just looks disgusting, I can see you passing it by. But we can all help out! Ecology is only so big for a park that is much, much bigger. Good luck with the chearleaders this year. Last year there had to have been more than two feet of trash in Timberwolf and maybe only one full trashcan. Those people are dirty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reptarrunner Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I'd like to say that the park is clean, the bathrooms however have a bit to be desired. It is in particular the rivertown restroom closest to Nick Central. I go in there everyday and there is toliet paper everywhere and it is just gross looking. Although, I do have to say that there was one day, second day we were opened that a girl was in that bathroom scrubbing the sinks and it was obvious that she had just swept and everything. She was awsome and I'm sorry I didn't get her name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA RIPPER Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I don't leave the waterpark much during the year, but you people have done and outstanding job there the 6 years i've been going there. can't wait to see what you have done this year, with all the concrete being replaced this year I'll bet your going to get a lot of overtime.

TopThrillDragster Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 You guys are doing a great job. Keep up the good work! You go Willie! The park is very clean How many people do you have on a sat/sun going around sweeping trash up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S500 Posted April 19, 2004 Author Share Posted April 19, 2004 If memory serves me right, each ecology crew has approxiamately 6 Pan & Broomers, 2 Truckers and 6 restroom people spread out to cover the day. Thanks for asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
