74Gibson Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Ride Warriors Coaster Weekend was incredible and one of my all time favorite events! 4 Quote
TheCrypt Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 A coasterbuzz membership. Is this membership of the paid variety? Quote
The Interpreter Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 In addition, there is an event cost. Unlike many DC museums, not all the best things in life are free (and we pay for those, too, in various ways). 1 Quote
CoastersRZ Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Heck, even the KIC event that we had back in 2008 required a cost. I too miss Ride Warrior Coaster Weekend at Kings Island, and only participated in the first of the two days, due to school requirements. (I was also silly and left the park for a few hours for an afternoon shift at Coney before returning to Kings Island to ride Diamondback until 1am). 2 Quote
The Interpreter Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 I very much doubt that you regret that, loyal Coney Island of Ohio associate that you are! Quote
CoastersRZ Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Nope, I would do the same thing all over again. I got to work my Eli Bridge Ferris Wheel that day, with a person that I am still great friends with to this day, even though he last worked at Coney back in 2009. I`m getting ready to start my 12th season at Coney. Going to start the hiring process here in about a month. (Anyone that would be interested in working at Coney, fill out an application on Coney`s website at www.coneyislandpark.com). Its hard to believe how quickly time flies. It seems like just yesterday I was starting work at Coney. 4 Quote
Shawn Meyer Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Does this event have the same things as Coaster Mania at Cedar Point? What I mean is early ride entry on certain rides and late night rides on certain rides? What about behind the scenes walks of certain roller coasters like Diamondback, Vortex, and The Beast? Quote
The Interpreter Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 The answer is throughout the thread. There has been in the past. What will be this year, other than the date, has not yet been announced, to my knowledge. See the second post of the thread for some details from years past. 1 Quote
Shawn Meyer Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Would that be SOK? Thank you Interpreter. This goes out to Aaron. What does that stand for? Quote
The Interpreter Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Son of Kinzel. Bart. Dick and his board did a thorough, world-wide search to get the most qualified applicant for General Manager at Carowinds. And it just happened to be the Chairman, CEO and President's son, Bart. 2 Quote
Guest KingsIslandPR Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Details for BeastBuzz have been released: http://coasterbuzz.com/Content/BeastBuzz 6 Quote
CoastersRZ Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Sounds like one awesome day. I may just have to go to that. I would love to go on the train tour. It all depends on how busy I am that weekend working down at Coney. Quote
jcgoble3 Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 I'd love to go to that, but my GOCC membership won't get me in because it only costs $20/year. I might end up buying a CoasterBuzz membership to go with the GOCC one, just to get into this. Class, raise your hand if you hold multiple coaster club memberships. 1 Quote
TheBEASTunchained Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 TheBEASTunchained will certainly be there! Quote
Shawn Meyer Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 ^ Thank you Don for the details! Your Awesome! Quote
ohiocolts Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Decided to bump this because it is coming up. What other KICers will be participating? Do you guys recommend I participate? We are debating if we should buy a Coaster Membership and pay admission to the event. Quote
jcgoble3 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 I'd love to be there, but I'd have to buy a second club membership to get in because my GOCC membership won't, and I just can't afford that at this time. 1 Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 No. Some years have been skipped. It's a safe bet that next year won't be skipped. 1 Quote
BeastForever Posted August 11, 2013 Posted August 11, 2013 Does it matter how long you've been a member of coasterbuzz or could you literally get a membership weeks before the event and still do it? Quote
TheBEASTunchained Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 Great photos of BeastBuzz 2013 taken by CoasterImage.com......... http://www.coasterimage.com/beastbuzz-at-kings-island-the-day-in-photos/ There are some very HQ pictures of the Banshee area and overall good pictures of The Beast.
