Jes Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I hope you don't mind the plug here, as I thought the readers of Kings Island Central might be interested in a charity auction runing now through August 14th that supports A Kid Again. There are several very unique Kings Island items up for auction: Original Firehawk Sign: https://givergy.us/timeout2021/?controller=lots&action=showLot&id=161 Orion In-Park Banners: https://givergy.us/timeout2021/?controller=lots&action=showLot&id=164 Diamondback Seat & Track Section: https://givergy.us/timeout2021/?controller=lots&action=showLot&id=169 Scrambler Car: https://givergy.us/timeout2021/?controller=lots&action=showLot&id=157 Original Beast Train Lap Bar: https://givergy.us/timeout2021/?controller=lots&action=showLot&id=170 A Kid Again is a great organization that makes life for families caring for a child with a life-threatening conditions “normal” again by helping them gain back moments of positive, family-shared experiences and memories. 100% of the winning bids of these items will go to A Kid Again. My hope is that these items can make their way to fans of the park, while also supporting a great cause that serves our community. -Jes 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TombraiderTy Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 This is awesome! It's great to see old old park items being made available to park fans, versus just being tossed in the garbage, while simultaneously helping out a great charity. Big kudos to Kings Island for this. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 You talk about treasures! Woah! I sure hope some of these items find a good good home here. Thanks for the heads up, Jes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 That is so cool. Thanks for posting @Jes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
standbyme Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I would love to own most of the items…but some are certainly going to end up well beyond my price range…and I wouldn’t have a clue where I would The Scrambler car. I will try for something because I think it’s a great cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Without a doubt, the Scrambler car has Jungle Jims written all over it. I'm sure they'd be happy to make room for it somewhere inside the store and fill it with food! They certainly have the means to buy it and the room to showcase it.

silver2005 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 The DB seat would make a good gaming or sports watching seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And why does this seatback not have the all the black sweat stains on it? lol. Was it an extra one they just never used? I don't recall that those seats were replaced until they went all black a couple of seasons ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 ^You can always add stuff on. Heck, you need a mount for it to even be functional, might as well splurge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To finish it off you just need a 36” section of lift chain for you mailbox post and a couple of train wheels for the sides of your driveway.

It would be like a “Karen magnet” in my neighborhood if I did that! (Not that I would blame them…that would be quite an eyesore.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
