Ride On_17 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 ^Which was your favorite to work? You always talk about Corkscrew a lot so I'd expect this one, but I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTD-120-420 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Roller coasters (Griffon and Alpengeist), thrill rides/flat rides (Catapult... AKA Scrambler), family rides (Le Scoot Log Flume), vending/merchandise (lockers), food services (Cedar Point: Chuck Wagon), guest relations and other. My "other" would be transportation rides (Skyride and Railroad). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheikra_rocks Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 2001 - 2002 I primarily worked at Rhino Rally, but was cross trained at Kumba, Montu, and Sky Ride. Sadly no photos from this time period. 2002 - 2004 I worked at a place called Silver Springs in Ocala Florida. I actually worked in the Wildlife Department. I conducted reptile demonstrations. 2005 when I moved to Cincy, I worked at KI in the Festhaus. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedevariouseffect Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Corkscrew is always my favorite...you don't find rides that are that demanding and fin to work anymore in todays techhnology age. Plus we did have the best crew there that year...even pointbuzz and enthusiasts agreed with that which was great considering the year before my crew got there we were voted worst crew... Big changes man 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
