Welcome to the KI Team Jason, and good luck with the fund-raising. I look forward to meeting you and the rest of the TPR team... Its definitely going to be a fun time especially since I've never ridden the beast at night time.

Nice flyer, maybe I'll try something like that in our student office.

I'm still working toward $75 minimum as well, a little less than half-way there. Any help will be really appreciated!

Thanks for the dent you all have started to make, but please don't be complacent once you reach your goal. Raise the goal on your home page as you get close to it. There is no shame in not reaching a higher goal, but you don't want to second guess that you could have done more. Every dollar you collect means something, sometimes it means everything to a family in need of happiness during a tough time.

A very good friend of mine took advantage of the GKTW experience years ago for his daughter with severe Cerebral Palsy. It is a vacation they have never forgotten.

I'll be donating in the future and/or potentially joining the TPR Team if space is available, once my current employment situation irons itself out.

Good luck everyone.

^That's why I removed the goal from my page, and just have what I've raised so far. So that way people won't go oh she's made it, no more.

But yes, we've done a lot in these past couple weeks. Keep it up this event is still a couple months away!

As the Obsessive Overlord of the TPR Park Index here is my offer.

$1 for each new park you review, untiI I run out of money. I have at least $50 at stake here, I may have $100 or I may have more. I may end this offer in 3 days, it may last for 6 weeks. You can make money for charity by stating your opinions. I know some people on TPR love stating their opinions.

However, I need to maintain some quality control of the reviews, so a few rules.

1 - "OMG, this place rulz" Does not qualify as a review. Use have a 750 character limit to express your love or hate, don't stop at 20 characters.

2 - It must be a real park that is correctly operating, no Family Entertainment Centers or really small places. As a rule of thumb: I consider DelGrosso's a real park, but I don't consider Stratosphere Tower a real park.

3 - Please write coherently and intelligently. Even if you have only been to a few parks in your life, let the rest of TPR know what you like or dislike about the park, whether it be the rides, food, shows, friendliness of staff or atmosphere.

4 - Don't forget to assign a rating from 0-5 Stars. And don't just complain about a park and then give a 4.5 rating. Make your review useful.

5 - There will be bonus dollars at stake for the highest quality reviews.

To review a park:
Click here or the "TPR Park Index" words at the top of each page
Then click on a park and scroll down to the "Member Review" section and log-in

I'll be keeping track and updating your donations pages periodically, not directly after each review is written.

^^Alright Larry, I have 4 new reviews up (Dollywood, SeaWorld Orlando, Legoland, Busch Gardens Tampa), and I can try to get some more in though I already have most of the parks I've visited. I might need to stretch my mind back pretty far, I want to at least get to 5.

Larry,

Ignore my review for Luna Park. I didn't realize I had reviewed it in August. Though I think the newer one is better as it just talks about Luna Park, the old one combined all parks as one.

So note to self, look at all reviews first before writing a new one. :)

Hey Larry!!

I just did a review of Jolly Roger in Maryland. I know its a small park but its the only park I been to that did not already have multiple reviews. Plus the review it had I do not think is very helpful. I hope this is a eligible review.
I may not know everything about coasters... what I do know is they are my life...

Buy cool t-shirts here!!!
