Where are you heading this year?

To be honest I haven't paid much thought to it because it depends a lot on where I work this summer. Definite hits for me are the Hoosier parks: Holiday World and Indiana Beach. Anything on top of that would be a welcome surprise. I will be trying to see if there is any way I can make Knoebels, though. That park tops the list of unvisited places I want to go to.

-Kemah
-SFOT

What ride are you going to be operating? I'll probably run into you without knowing it

I havent been told yet, I will find out when I get my contract. I do know it will be a ride in the front of the park.

I'm surprised no one is planing a trip to the newest park.. Hard Rock Park? I am planning a trip in June to go up there also trying to make my first trip to Dollywood.

I know I won't be able to make it their, but yeah HRP doesn't look bad at all!

How do you guys afford all of this? I'm going to work all summer and maybe Great America. I haven't been there in two years and it's 30 minutes away from me. 6 days of work a week rapes your schedule pretty good.

hey, i only live like 15-20 minutes away from six flags great america!!! [:D]

^still beat ya =p
im about.. 7ish minutes from SFGAdv,

So my trips:
GAdv-atleast once a week, maby skip a week, depends, i always dont go.
And i think ill be going to hershy to.

Well, considering I'm so close to SFA and I finally have my license, I'm gonna get a pass and go there whenever.

I'm really hoping to go to a German amusement park when I go on an exchange trip in June. Maybe Phantasialand or Holiday Park, or any park there really (although I really want to ride Expedition GeForce ). I saw pictures from the 2006 exchange trip and one of them was the group at a German park. When my partner comes over here in September, I wanna try and take him to BGE or PKD or SFA (at least).

Other than that, Hershey Park and hopefully Waldameer. Fahrenheit and Ravine Flyer II both look amazing.

-Alton Towers
-Blackpool Pleasure Beach
-Drayton Manor
-Oakwood
-Possibly orlando parks.

Definitely Cedar Point. Holiday World in Indiana. Gotta like that free parking and free soft drinks!! And the world's greatest roller coater, The Voyage!

The usual places like Six Flags Great Adventure, Astroland (in it's final year...again) and the Coney Island attractions, Dorney Park, and NJ shore pier parks. I'll probably head up to Mountain Creek waterpark again as well.

This summer I'll be heading out to Cali and Vegas so I'll definatly get to go on rides at The Strip (among other things,) Seaworld and maybe Six Flags Magic Mountain. I also hope to make it to Knoebels and SFNE, but I've said that every year for about 3 years now.

Last but not least, fairs. Meadowlands Fair (NJ), Orange County Fair (NY), and various others around my area. I'm a sucker for carnivals.

Well, I'm jealous of pretty much all of you, as I'm pretty much the only person in my family who likes parks/coasters, so I don.t get to go to many places. Really only places that happen to be where we are on vacation or something. For example, this year we're headed to Europe for a cruise, so I might be able to convince my dad to take me to Thorpe Park, and also our flight leaves from Toronto, so I'm thinking up some arguments to get him to take me to CW and Behemoth. Other than that, I'm headed for CP, KI (both within 2-2.5 hrs), and Zoombezi Bay waterpark (20 minutes). Nothing too exciting.

Euuh, the usual, Walibi, Toverland etc.

And maybe 2 days Thorpe Park [:D]

My parents said were most likely going to socal this summer so were going to knotts and sfmm and of course my home park cliffs.

im only about 45 minutes away from SFoG, so ill be spending most of my park time there, but me and my dad might make a trip down to Hershey this year instead of our usual trip to CP over summer

I'm trying to organize a road trip to Magic Mountain over the summer. I really want to go to the ACE day on June 1st but I'm still in school. My friend also mentioned a trip to CP so that might also be in the works before I start community college.

It's called having a sweet mommy that pays for about 75% of the trips

I'm staying at work this year, but a short trip to the Kruger National park wouldn't hurt much, haven?????????t seen the place in ages.

I'm not too sure where I am going but heres what I'm thinking so far

Waldameer
CedarPoint of course,
Kennywood,
Kings Island
Disney
Hersheys.
I wish I could say Geauga Lake....

- Phantasialand
- Bobbejaanland or Efteling
- Maybe Walibi world

My workmates and I will travel to Port Aventura (Spain) on the 11th of may to ride Furious Baco, Stampida, Tami-tami, Tomahawk, El tren del diablo and, of course, Dragon Khan!!! And maybe on september to Warner Bros. Park (Madrid)...
