My favorite has to be coming to Cedar Point for my first ever Coaster Mania weekend. So much fun being able to ride roller coasters that you normally have to wait a half hour to an hour to ride when during this weekend, I was able to just walk up and get back in line and marathon. My only regret was sleeping in during the morning of when they had it going around 6 in the morning until 10. I just could not wake up...lol.
Kicking butt running WildCat all summer. I had two favorite days. One was the 3rd of July when we had the highest amount of riders on the ride in a single day in 10 years. Also the day that we passed 2009's crew in ridership for the year which put us as the highest of the last four years and easily the highest since they cut it down to just a five car operation.
I have a few actually. The first would be my first opening day Ive attended. next would be my first Coasting for Kids event and sitting on Gemini all day. I didnt think it could be so much fun and so relaxing. Third would be hosting my wedding party at the Point for a great weekend and luncheon. Finally would be the closing moments of Paddlewheel. Everyone of these times was special in their own way.

Ours was the day we set the Guiness World Record for beachball bouncing and applying suntan lotion in the park. My wife and I and my sons girlfriend left Cleveland early to hit the Breakwater Cafe breakfast buffet that morning. We casually walked over to the beach entrance, not knowing there was a limit to how many people would be let in the area to set the record. Fortunately, we were among some of the last few people to get in. It seemed a little unorganized, but had a great time participating, receiving the certificate, and riding coasters the rest of the day!!! Thanks Cedar Point.

I don't have one single best memory from this season. However, this whole season was extremely memorable for me. Working with 2011 Raptor Crew was amazing and we were one of the closest crews I've ever heard of. I'm glad I got the chance to meet and work with such awesome people.
2010: Millennium Force & Mantis
2011: Raptor
2012: Raptor, Sky Ride and Wicked Twister
2013: Co-Team Leader of Sky Ride
2014: Supervisor of Slingshot/Skyscraper
Hmm...
Mine was probably my Winnebago boat tour around the peninsula. It was really amazing, and made for some great pictures!

It's so hard to decide after being there and working practically every day of the season. It's not like a trip here, or there, ect...I would say the biggest thing on hand that I can think of at the moment was messing around with one of the guys on our crew that was from PA and we all called him Amish and were busting jokes left and right it was hilarious..Then it turned into knocking Sarah Palin (impressions), ect...fun day...But there are oh so many memories
My favorite memory is being scared that I wouldn't fit on MF this year. I got in the seat on the yellow train and since the ride op wouldn't help me fasten the belt I had to do the walk of shame (sort of)
I snuck back in line from the front seat que and I got on the blue train in the middle. Since the ride op was more helpful I was able to ride.
I waved at the ride op that wouldn't help me on the way up the chain.
Not all trains are the same when it comes to the seat belts.
