Title: Pre-con Lagoon Trip
Reno - July 27, 2008 06:04 AM (GMT)
Ichidan and friends heading to The Lagoon on Thursday before the convention for Frightmares theme for the theme park. Assuming we get enough people all at once they have group discounts I see.
Anyway, anyone is invited to come hang out, hopefully see you there!

If we can manage to wrangle up a group of 50, then that would be awesome.
1. The Great Meal Deal - SAVE $12.95 on Regular Ride Passports!
(GROUPS 50 AND LARGER WITH PURCHASE OF ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT)
Regular Ride Passport (ages 4 & over) ...............................$27.00 + Tax**
Midweek Special (T-TH June & July) Regular Ride Passport (ages 4 & over) ...$25.50 + Tax**
Toddler Ride Passport (3 yrs & under) .........................................$21.95 + Tax**
Entrance Only - Toddler* (3 yrs & under) ............................................ Free
Entrance Only - Senior Citizen* (65 yrs & over) ............................ Free
I think that would be pretty neat.

I'll probably go!
Lagoon is about 10 minutes away from my house, so it would be easier for me to make it.... I can also probably get some of my friends from school to come, too.
But, gosh, talking about doing something right before the con just made me realize how little time I have left to finish both my cosplays. T_T

It'll happen most likely in the afternoon ;p

Sounds like fun, count me in!
Nadare - July 28, 2008 09:18 PM (GMT)
Darn it!
It sounds fun and all but
1. School night (unless the Friday after we don't have school.)
2. No money... No car...
3. It's an hour away from where I live.
Well... If it does work out, I hope you guys have fun.. And scream extra loud for those of us who can't go.

I wish I could but it is hard to say what I will be doing that far in the school year. (homework or not I am going to banzai) It is my senior year so who knows what my teachers and going to pull on me. I really want to so to lagoon, I havn't ridden wicked yet and I want to so bad. (coaster fanatic yup thats me)
If i can come I would love to be there.

Then there's the whole thing about convining my mother to let me go... *sigh darned mother for still thinking I'm three >/

Hmmm... If it was on a weekend, I'd most likely be working there that day (Yesh, yesh, I work at Lagoon). But since it's not, I'll go. I'd like to meet some of you, ne? Hope you don't mind me tagging along for a bit ^-^;;.

The more the merrier!

UPDATE!
Lagoon is closed the day before, so... lets go the day after!
chloechan - July 31, 2008 06:18 AM (GMT)
The day after might actually be just a little better, because that way no one will have to worry a ton about missing school/not having time to do homework.
Ah, but we should probably still meet in the afternoon, 'cause some of us might be wiped out from the Con. (I know I will be)
Akugensho - July 31, 2008 07:06 AM (GMT)
Lagoon doesn't open until 11 anyway.
Kakashi Hatake - July 31, 2008 04:17 PM (GMT)
Yeah... Lagoon is closed on Thursdays in October. :/ I really wanted to hit this too.
Let's aim for Sunday? I'm still up for it!!! 8D

You Utah people and your crazy rules for theme parks. Sunday it is then.
No-Chan - August 5, 2008 08:17 PM (GMT)
Well.. it is in.. October.. Lagoon didn't even used to be open in October.. but for the miracle of Frightmares it still wouldn't be. ;)
They do start shutting some of the rides down as the month progresses, however.. One year I went and the Samurai was all taken down, along with Cliffhanger.. though.. who would want to get soaking wet in October... O.o
Anyway, yeah, it doesn't open til 11am, but I think it closes kinda early as well.. I don't know if there's any info up for Frightmares this early in the season...
*pokes the person who said they work there* Do you know anything about that yet??
The other option would be to have 2 days set aside.. Weds and Sunday? If you're helping out at the con I hope you're planning on helping us take stuff down Sunday morning! That would rock! ;)
Akugensho - August 5, 2008 08:43 PM (GMT)
Well, I went around that time last year and the Samurai was still up, but all the water rides were shut down. Also, Lagoon closes at 8pm due to the fact that most of the employees are high school students. That's also why it is not open during the weekday.

*giggle* I doubt she thinks your three buddy, really doubt it...But hey...Probably the only way I'm going to be able to come will be if Salem goes...Other wise, my mum will be iffy to convince...
(As long as I know someone there and spend most of my time with them, she's A-ok! xD)

[Ish the chixx who work at Lagoon]
Hey guys, I got a schedule from work and it says Lagoon will be
open on Thursday, October 16. This is the only Thursday Lagoon is open during Frightmares.
Most public schools should start their fall recess on this day, so going out on a school night shouldn't be a problem for some.(The schedule is
here on the website, too, just skip ahead to October.)

The Samurai was usually shut down a lot of the time, but we recently got new parts from Europe for it not too long ago, so I think it should be good for a while. The Screamer is still not repaired yet, though.
The Cliffhanger has been working recently, but every few hours it's shut down for maintenance. It's usually back up in half an hour or so most of the time.
Lagoon actually closes at 11PM during Frightmares (except on Sundays, which will be 8PM) and is only open during the weekends.

[useless info]
We have morning/night shifts like every other job, but those 16 and older get off at 11PM if they are night shift.
(I'm 15, so I can't work nights and get off earlier.)
I'm also changing departments to work as an actor during Frightmares, so our hours are the same as the adults because child actors are treated as regular actors in this case.
[/useless info]
Lagoon's FRIGHTMARES! hours are:
6PM-11PM on Fridays
11AM-11PM on Saturdays
11AM-8 Sundays
11AM-11PM on the one Thursday I mentioned
Of course, Lagoon is closed during the weekdays on September and October.
The September schedule is slightly different.
I think I covered everything! If you need anymore info, please don't hesitate to ask me! Sorry for such a long post.
