Maybe the lady who lent us her grill swiped your grill?
The picnic was a lot of fun. It was nice to visit with everyone, although maybe we should have had name tags! I didn't catch everyone's handle, but I was glad to see everyone. The chili-dog sauce was great, and I got to take home a stash. Now I am waiting to get some good casing franks from the little meat store about 10 minutes away.
Sharing a picnic like that makes it a little cheaper to eat at CP, plus you get to see a lot of nice people. I hope we can do something like that again!
Does a great Opening Day include a Magnum walk-down and a 3am fire alarm at the Breakers Express?

Whats up with the fire alarms at BE? My kids and I went through one about 2 years ago.
First trip June 23rd
So sorry that I couldn't attend on Saturday as I was looking forward to it.
I was preparing for my trip (Getting clothes, car, etc. ready) and received a phone call that my Grandfather was rushed to Intensive Care for a stroke. Later that day, I received notice that my friend (and former CP alum) Jason Krzyzewski who was supposed to go to Opening Day with me had been in a car accident and was hospitalized with a concussion. NOT a pleasant start to the weekend.
Once everything settles, and everyone's health is much better...then count me in for meeting up at the park!!
Hey, is anyone going to Coastermania on June 2nd? If so we can meet at the free luncheon. I can bring some more chili for you Tank...lol
It was great meeting you and Matt also PunkyPiko. Let me know if you want me to send our famous chlli out tou you. Same goes for you Tank.
Hi Everybody! Coaster king 39 and I (was Coaster queen 68) were just wondering who all was still on here since opening day of 2006. We haven't been on in a while along with not visiting Cedar Point but do plan on it soon. I'm so glad I found the old posts , it brought back good memories of that day and the pleasure of meeting everyone who attended our opening day meeting. Hope to hear from everyone soon!!
