Italianchef, I assume that you have visited Coney Island before. It is a great park, with lots of great kiddie rides for the kids. The Python is an ok coaster but not great. This season marks Coney`s 120th anniversary. This season, Sunlite Pool passes are also valid for free rides all season long. And apparantly, the ride will be open this year from 10 am until 9 pm as opposed to an 11am opening as in years past.

Coney is a great place to work and visit. Several of the VP and even Vic Nolting the president, take pride in making their park clean and keeping things up to snuff. In fact it is not uncommon for them to be seen walking with a pan and broom around the park. And when we were short staffed back in August, the VP and the President of Operations were operating rides to give us operators a break. Unfortunatly, I will not be returning to Coney this summer, the first time I won`t be working there sine 2001. I will truly miss working there, but I will be making more money on co-op in the spring and fall and will be in school in the summer.

That being said, I hope to visit Holiday World on one of my weekends in the spring when I am on co-op at K4 Architecture in downtown. Beyond that, my summer will be limited to sporadic trips to PKI when I can manage to squeeze in some free time from the hectic school schedule. (I spent this past weekend building a bridge for my structures class).

Im looking forward in goin to strickers grove!!

I wish I could visit more parks, but money isn't something my parents can just throw away.
