Save all money throughout the year to have an awesome summer!

You can do that, or just work so much that you have no time to spend the money!


I have this strange addiction of always going to a different park each time I have a day off... that could be why the list is so long.


Yeah, that sucks about Chiller...I hate to see it like that. Hey, so we should get a group picture or something ok. I'll call you later!

Rack up  your credit cards and pay them off in the winter. Wash,  rinse repeat. Once you start doing  this your credit limit will increase so you can do more parks! It works great with my shell card.

Ask yourself this  "Will I do a certain park three times this year "  If so, just buy a season pass.

I was just like that KKR05, I would only go to GADV and Morey's every summer until I got my license.

I think this summer is the summer that I actually drive out to Cedar Point. My friend's parents drove last year because neither of us had our liceneses, but we both do and the drive should be fun and I love Cedar Point. Such a great park. But Great Adventure is definitey, Hershey and Dorney are likely, Cedar Point is definite. Should be an awesome year.

Hmm, June 3rd could possibly work. Kristi just found out she may not be able to get days off for Memorial Weekend. Something about not getting the same holiday off 2 years in a row or some such crap. ;)

LOL What Crap!

I'll definatly be there this year, and am keeping my fingers crossed that El Toro and Ka are on the night schedule this time, but if not, I never complained about Nitro at night.

Try to hit Paramounts Great America as well.

My dad is going to Reno in the summer of 2007 for a convention. I am planning on going with him, I wanna do Vegas, SFMW, and PGA while I am there.

In San Fran, if I could hit only one park, it would not be Marine World, it would not be Paramount's Great America.  It would be Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.  I have been to all these parks, and by far the best experience, FOR ME, has been at SCBB.  Three separate trips I have made there, never once disappointed... The Giant Dipper is awesome, the entire pier scene is fun (think Jersey Shore but more laid back and much more ritzy...)

I went to SCBB a couple of summers ago (2004), and I hated it. The whole beachfront town was disgusting. It smelled and it was just overall sleezy.

/\  But how was the Giant Dipper?  For some, that is all that matters :)

^ We didn't feel like walking all the way down to the other end of the boardwalk (mostly because it smelled so bad), so I just skipped it. In hindsight, I really should have ridden it, but.... too late now  :roll:
