Thunderbird Watch: Holiday World Announces Second Charity Event for Thunderbird!

Can't wait to ride Thunderbird? Well, the folks at Holiday World have opened the taps for another round of donations with Give Kids the World. The first round of donations raised enough money for a family to spend a week at the Give Kids the World Village in Kissimee, Florida. Now, the park has decided to try and do it for a second family as well.

This time, there is no auction, just first come first serve for the first 100 people that donate at least $50 per person. Those that manage to get in will get the chance to experience Thunderbird during the media day event on April 23rd.

Not only will you get the chance to ride the park's newest coaster, and the first ever launched wing coaster in the US, but you'll also get time on The Voyage and Crows Nest as well. That not enough for ya? There will also be a special behind the scenes tour of Thunderbird in the afternoon as well as food and other surprises!

Time is limited on this one as your chance donate will end at 11:59pm on Sunday, April 19th, so if you want to get on the media day event and help out a good cause, head on over to the official donation page!

As always, you can follow along with us right here for all the latest on Thunderbird and more out of Holiday World and beyond or join the madness with us on Twitter, Google+, Tumblr and Facebook for all the latest too!

Banshee Charity Event- First Time Night Rides

 More information today about the opening day of both Kings Island and their newest, record breaking roller coaster- Banshee.


 On April 17th of 2014, Kings Island is offering a special event for fans of the new roller coaster and raising money for charity at the same time. In an event called "Scream For A Kid Again" Kings Island will be allowing the first 'night riders' on their new coaster exclusive ride time in return for raising money for 'A Kid Again' charity.

 A Kid Again is a Greater Cincinatti Charity which raises money for kids with life-threatening illness' and their families through respite times of group activities and destination trips. Allowing the kids to enjoy being a kid and having fun-filled times of happiness.

 For a $25 dollar fee riders can sign up to raise $100 each in donations. For the folks who raise the most money, will be the winners of the very first 'night ride' during Banshee's first day of full operations!

 In 2009 Kings Island raised more then  $107,000 with the same event for the opening of their 'Diamondback' roller coaster. Not only do you get special riding privileges, you do something good for kids!
