has one major passion, roller coasters. It wont be long before you make
new friends and everybody makes you feel welcome.

you occupied during the winter months.

What happens
on a Club trip?

How can I help parks?
By completing the annual Club survey you will be directly helping the
parks. By providing information we can help parks,informing them what
rides and attractions are preferred and those disliked, etc. Andy Hine

results to help persuade Parks to get the right new attraction.

the Park and usually a list of local Hotels and Guest houses. These
are a guide only and are not endorsed by the Club.
