We are excited to announce our next off-season event, which will be held on Saturday, February 25.

Why are we excited? I mean, besides the ultra-cool experience of walking around Cedar Point during the off-season?

Well, our featured keynote speaker will be Cedar Point General Manager, and Twitter's newest user, John Hildebrandt. Plus, 100% of the proceeds from the event will be donated to Give Kids The World. How about that for a one-two punch?

Get all the details and purchase your tickets on our event page.

I'd be all over it if I didn't have a GOCC committee meeting that day. :(

We're looking forward to it, and it's great to see the proceeds going to Give Kids the Word. I'm excited that Mr. Hildebrandt will be taking time to speak with us!

It's always obvious when we see him how much he loves the park.

Just tell everyone on the committee to come to the event, then you can take care of your GOCC business after.

Just bought tickets! I can't wait for my first off-season tour of the park! I'm so glad it fell on a weekend that I shouldn't have a problem getting off work.


We'll miss you MrScott and Pete

Just got my ticket as well. Living in Alabama never allowed me an opportunity to attend one, but now that I have relocated to Perrysburg, I'm excited to go. Wife is still in Alabama so I'm going solo, I'll be glad to meet some fellow fans.

Ok, I couldn't take it anymore. I bought a ticket. :)

I haven't missed a meeting in a couple years. I'll just be a bit late to this one.

I was all set to go to this, then looked at the calendar and realized I have a previous engagement. I'll have to live vicariously through everyone's postings here.

Anyone know where we are supposed to meet up at when we get to the park that day?

Super excited! We have been to multiple GOCC events but not a Pointbuzz one yet, and none during the off season.

It looks like this event won't work for my schedule either. Bummer. Someday when I have a job and again have lots of friends with money to donate to worthy causes, I intend to jump all over GKTW fundraisers.

Somebody try and snag me an extra set of the souvenir mouse ears they'll be handing out... ;)

The event is sold out. A waiting list is available in case a spot opens up.

Cedar Point Police enforced a strict cut-off time for our last event. Late arrivals, even by a few minutes, were not permitted back. Just a heads up.

We will likely be parking in Breakers East parking lot. We'll send an email out to all attendees before the event with all the necessary details.

The tour will cover a section of the park, which has not yet been determined.
