Anyone want to help me with Worlds of Fun? I have more than enough pictures alone, but I know there are others who'd probably like to do it (I'm looking at DHollon).

One of things I'd like to see on the tours is signs and stations. When you give us a tour, I like you all to virtually take us to the park. What are we going to see as we approach the park? What are we going to see as we enter the park? What are we going to see as we navigate the park?

Just as I shot the entry signs for the rides as well as a couple of the rides' stations and even signs along the midway, I'd like to see more of those. Rides are one part, but showing us extras like signs, notable restaurants and shops, and even views from the midways and trains, really make for an overall great tour.

As a personal request to any of you out west, I would love for someone to take me on a virtual tour of Six Flags Magic Mountain. Any volunteers?

I got Camden Park here in West Virginia!

Sounds like a great idea and I would be happy to contribute since I have plenty of photos!

So is there going to a seperate "Virtual Tour of My Park" thread or? I think that might help seperate it from typical trip reports.

Yeah you can start your own thread on your tour. If you have pictures of signs and midways in your park, I'd love to see those as well. Hope you give us a great tour!

What I meant was is there going to be a seperate forum as in "Virtual Park Tours" that will only include these things and not your typical trip reports?

Sweet. Thanks, guys.

I have a ton of signage. Some of it hilarious. This will be fun, especially since not many people have visited Camden Park.

I would LOVE to see one of WOF. It's my home park.

I will do Idlewild.

I have some pictures of the park, but I'm going to wait until the season starts back up and get some better ones.

Well, Im not really sure what My home park is now. Im 3 1/2 hours away from Cedar Point and SFGAM, and Im 2 hours away from Indiana Beach (not THAT great). O... what the hell, Cedar Point will be my home park from now on.

In June-ish when I get a chance to go to CP I'll mind myself to take some pics of things.

I have a ton of Carowinds, Scarowinds & Winterfest photos. I'll have to go dig them up and put them on a CD.

If any of you can....don't just limit your photos to rides, but I also like to see photos of landmarks, games, shops, midways, and some of the more popular dining/food services as well.

The whole idea is that you are virtually taking us to your park and giving us a grand tour from your own point of view. So if you see anything of interest in the park (not just rides), show us!
