Coasting For Kids 2012

Also, without knowing how many virtual riders there are, it looks like we're approaching $64K. I'm pretty sure that's more than last year, which I believe was around $62K. 10 days to go and the pace seems to have picked up. :-)

Gah! Procrastination strikes me again. Is there a consolidated list of Buzzers participating? Or is this it?

I don't think there is a list anywhere of the participating buzzers.

Here are the participant lists at what are probably our most buzz filled parks:

Cedar Point - http://www.firstgiving.com/gktw/CedarPoint/fundraisers

Dorney Park - http://www.firstgiving.com/gktw/DorneyPark/fundraisers

I have no qualms about asking yet again if it helps support this wonderful organization. One CB'er has already helped me pass my goal, and there's room for more!!!

Got my donations in today, a full two days and 3 hours ahead of the deadline. I'll try to wait a bit longer next year. :)


Hi

kpjb,

Where are you riding? Or are you doing the virtual thing?

I'm riding at Kennywood, but you all can send me money anyhow.

I made donations today... not received. :)

I miss the smileys. :(

Well we're right around $77,000

I'm not sure about the other parks. But, Cedar Point is supposed to be 86 degrees and sunny on Sunday.

You know, I haven't even checked the forecastfor Allentown. That's sooo not like me.

Worlds of Fun here I come!


Fever I really enjoy the Simpsons. It's just a shame that I am starting to LOOK like Homer.

I didn't look at all the numbers, but it appears..if you factor in each participant's $25 registration fee..that we're over 90K. Awesome!

We've surpassed $95,000. For those of you who like to wait until the last minute, this is your time to shine. Push us over the $100,000 mark. Final tally is at Noon. Though money can still be donated beyond that.
