Im bringing this up to see what interest there may be in this sort of thing.

I will once again be working at the great Dorney Park & WildWater Kingdom for the summer. Every year, they have several special interest clubs attend the park...receiving group discounts and special ride times and such. My question is...if i could set one up...would anyone be interested in a meet there? It would have to be sometime in june-july-august. I could arrange for special parking for our cars, special admission rates and our own grove and caterers if we wanted.

For those of you who are not from the area...and have no clue what dorney park is...it is a 296 acre amusement park located in Allentown, PA. The park has 9 rollercoasters and a grand total of 68 rides and amusements. It really is a nice clean park. Also part of the establishment is WildWater kingdom, the sixth largest waterpark in the country. Admission includes both parks. If you want anymore info about the park, go to www.dorneypark.com or email me at Shadow248@juno.com.

I think this will probably generate alot of interest and i will mention it in the general SVX babble section too. Let me know what you think.

Shadow,

That's a good idea for next summer. Unfortunately, it will interfere with the 10th Anniv. SVX Meet this July. We now have 144 already signed-up for the meet. If you areinterested, please send me an e-mail.

Dorney park sounds great. I was playing with the idea of Hershey Park for next year's Reading Meet, but Dorney Park sounds better.

Dorney Park is a nice park but because of the distance I usually end up at Hershey Park. It's only a 1/2 hour away. Fun, fun, fun :)

Nothing compares to the atmosphere of Hershey Park. Maybe its just cause i have so many great memories from there.

Mike,

I have had a season pass every year for more than 17 years. Fun, fun, fun. What's your favorite ride? I personally get a kick out of the "Pirate ship" and the "Cyclone". Oh, and for the sake of tackiness......Gotta tour Chocalate World.

:D B.C :D

I would have to say that my favorite is the pirate ship. Second in line is probably the super duper looper.

Apparently this has turned into a discussion about amusement parks. HERSHEY?! Are you kidding? I suppose it has a certain classic feel to it, but the only thing i find entertaining there is the big chocolate store. The only time i ever go is in the winter for their christmas celebration. The two times that i went to the park in the summer were plenty for me.

Seriously though, Dorney is much better equipped to handle group outings and the park will keep you entertained for an entire day or even two.

Also as for timing...it is possible to do the meet in may or september, but it would probably be more expensive because that's when all the corporate outings are and we would be competing with those companies for park time. If we want to beat the crowds (being such a large park it does tend to get pretty packed), and assuming the meet would probably be a saturday, ideally we would want either one of the first two saturdays of june or the last two saturdays of august.

Dorney has a pirate ship. It's big.

Dorney has the Super Duper Looper, but Hershey has chocolate kiss lampposts.

Thank God no one proposed a meet at "Less Than Great Adventure."

Oh no no no no. I love the rides that make others throw up :) After lunch one time I rode the rotor(or whatever it was called) 10 times in a row. I loved that ride. Being smushed to a wall while being spun around and around and around............ Do you know what ride I am talking about? When you reached a certain speed the floor was lowered so that the centrifcal forces were the only thing that kept you from falling. We used to turn ourselves upside down at the point when you could hardly move foward from the wall. The operator of the machine used to yell at us sooooooooooo much :D

I have more than 40 pairs of shoes. I have Vans, Docs, Nikes, Air walks, Na Nas, Angels by Jonny Fluvog(ever seen a pair? They're the best), ............... You're more than welcome to borrow any of them :)

Sorry to jump in on your shoe fest... but I thought only girls have a ton of shoes. Let me go count. *walks to the closet and counts* I have total of 5 pairs of shoes. 2 black, 2 browns, and one tennis. Why on earth would you need that many shoes? I never figured out with girls and shoes. Now guys are getting on my lists. :rolleyes:

I have 2 brown docs... 1 black docs... some sandals (cheap) black dress shoes, and some adidas flip flop things.

so thats like what 6... and if you dont count the sandal type items, its 4. That qualifies me as a man i think.

Hey now.......I'm letting you keep the dress ;) Be nice ;)

Why do I have soooo many shoes? At the store I used to buy clothes from I became really close friends with the employees and the owner(it was a privately owned store) He would sell them to me at cost. Do you know what shoes really cost the stores? They're ripping you off. What most people pay for one pair of shoes I could get 3 or 4 pairs.

Hey I'll admit it.......It's also nice to have every color :) My Docs range from Black to electric blue and mood blue to airsprayed gold. Changing your shoes can make what your wearing completely different. This concludes our first fashion lesson ;)

Ok. I'll be nice. Thanks for letting me keep the dress. But Kel told me that she wanted it back. :(

Well, you guys saw what I wear pretty much every day at the Reading IiI. I don't think I need the blue or the golden shoes yet. Unless I decide to quit my job and become a pimp, I don't think I need a white pair of shoes either. :D
