I worked for the park from 1996 - 1999 I started at the high $4/hr range I believe and left at like $5.35. That was when gas was what less than a dollar a gallon (darn!). At that time I worked for the perks, free admission to one of my favorite parks.

I will say it was one of the best job enviroments I have ever had, the crews were great! And they did a lot of fun things for us, ride nights, cook outs etc. I certainly hope CF doesnt put a stop to those. Like some of the others on here I drove about 45 minutes to get to the park, I lived in Dayton at the time.

Tycoon, I lived darn near close to where you are living. You hopefully know where Addyston is and I lived just above that. I had slightly less than an hour long drive (mainly because I was no where near an easy highway access) and it is tough to go to work when the gas is getting more and more expensive. I do love what I do. I eventually had to move to Mason. I probably spend as much in heat as I did in gas, so I think it works out for me, I get to sleep in now.

Does not matter how much they pay actually... There will always be a Kings Island, and people can ***** all they want but thats the way it is and we cant change it....No matter who owns it.... Everyone has a opinion and thats what these boards are for, however the post about high turnover rates will be high and i agree but there will always be someone to replace someone who quits or who is a %age to this turnover rate.... Some things i dont like about the park and some i do , but no matter what i will always go there until the day i die...
