  • There is one thing that just becomes more obvious, people do not understand enthusiasts. People do not understand how we can go to Kings Island so frequently. They don't understand why it could contin

  • Thank you BB1. Just a brief report. With the park opening late, I was hoping for light crowds which is exactly what we got! It was another awesome trip. It's been such a great way to shake off the o

Probably should start my own topic but I love hijacking LoraX threads :)

Debating on Beach Bend or Indiana Beach later this summer. Incredibly the drive distance is almost exactly the same. Visited IB as a child....never been to BB. Love the thoughts of flats at IB but very intrigue by the woodie at BB.

Thoughts??

I've never been to Beech Bend. I love Indiana Beach. It's tiny and quaint. I would like to visit Beech Bend too. Have to gone to Sticker's Grove? I would really like to go there when it's open this year.

I always do the second Sunday in October. Last year we had a pretty large group of KICers meet up. Definitely a fun time.

Strickers Grove is definitely on my list of must-visits ^ that Sunday in October may just be the day.

I agree, last time (which was also my first time) at Stricker's was awesome! I plan on going again this year and if I do end up going, I'd like to organize mini-golfing like I did last year :)

Just read all the trip reports in this thread and you guys really do have a great time! Would love to meet up with some of you guys sometime. [emoji3]

I think we have fun. We typically post when we are going. I doubt we will go this weekend unfortunately. :(

When/If you go to Stricker's make sure to make it known on here that you're going! Stricker's is even closer to my house than Kings Island, and I would happily come by after work to join anyone on this site who wants to go on one of the days they're open.

June 1 - I have zero will power.

We arrived at the park about 5:15 and it was busy, but manageable. Before we got in the front gates, we ran into Melanie and Melissa. Melissa had no idea we were going to be there (it's likely she's the only one who would be shocked about us showing up.)

They tell us that Brad and his son are over by Beast. So while we are in that area, we ride Beast. We only waited about 20 minutes which was not horrible.

We went to BBOBH because my daughters purpose at Kings Island is to beat Zach's score. It's not happened yet.

Once we exited the ride, Andrew met up with us and Brad and his son were going to go home after a ride or two.

The group of us made our way to Cirque Imagine. As the clowns descended to the auditorium, one sat right behind my daughter (who knew where they would drop down so she could get a selfie with one of them - again.)

Sadly, this young man was injured to some degree and they stopped the show. I hate seeing a performance stopped for any reason. It shows that they really are doing stunts that can really hurt them. Hope he has a speedy recovery.

Just a few other shots from the show.

I really enjoy this show.

We rode Banshee, Racer, Dodgem - and then it started to lightening so all rides were shut down.

We ended the night by having two back to back rides on Beast and got to see the fireworks from Banshee. For a short visit, it was eventful.
