Yeah, I'm applying for SFoG again this coming year, hopefully that means I can be deadweight for the new hyper in the mornings all summer long . I don't know if I want to work concessions/merchandise or if I want to op, probably ride-op though. I wonder how old you have to be for Canyon Blaster?

I'll probably be applying for Kennywood and Sandcastle next year...If I don't get to check restraints on rides or do games I don't think I'll take a job at Kennywood though. I think lifeguarding at Sandcastle would be a lot of fun, but it's still my dream to work rides at Kennywood.

I might try going to CP next year, or I might just come back to my home away from home, Geauga Lake. I'm hoping they'll hire me as a Lead.

How far do you live away from CP? Because you could just live there (and work) for the summer. I would imagine working at CP would be more fun than working at GL, but if you say GL is your home away from home, then you make like GL more.

I eagerly await the '06 season. It'll be my third. I'll be coming back to Kentucky Kingdom as a Team Leader of some sort. Hopefully on an awesome ride group.

Groups I would like to have: Looney Tunes Moovie Town; Skycoaster (not going to happen--I'm not a Site Controller); Himalaya (Himalaya, Thrill Park Theater, and Enterprise); Thrill Karts (Thrill Karts, Rock Wall, and Turbo Bungy--but I hope they take out Turbo); or if I am incredibly unbelievably lucky, I'll get Blizzard River again.

Groups I would kill someone if they gave me: Twisted Twins (Twisted and Zeppelin); Hellavator (Hellavator and Breakdance); Greezed Lightnin' (Greezed, Rainbow, and Tin Lizzies); Himalaya (I know what I said earlier--the rides are a blast to operate, but it is the lowest priority ride group in the park and I would be insulted).

This is my fifth job in like four years, and the only one I enjoy. TOO BAD THE PAY SUCKS. Go 2006!

You like LTMT? Hopefully a new ride will join the Twisted group and will be where Top-E is. Also, something might go where Chaos is, but it might just be a water slide. They would have enough room for one if Chaos was removed and Great Race was moved somewhere else.

Kill, I say, if I end up at Twisted.

And yes, I love the LTMT rides, except for Sun & Moon.

I just finished off the 05' season at CP and will be looking to return next year. I don't know though if I'll stay in Merchandise or move somewhere else. I also might try to return to Disney and work for the Spring, or go work at the Hilton Head in SC on an advanced internship. But as of now, it's time to cram at school and start setting goals.

Hey, I was thinking about going to work to Cedar Point too but just for one month, is that possible or do you have to apply for the whole season?
