If you have been a member at IOAcentral.com over the past year or so, you'd know that I've been trying very hard to get a coaster marathon going for Make A Wish Foundation. Its been very hard going, and many good things have come of it, but I have not been succesful at it. Until Now.
I know this doesnt have much to do with Universal, but seeing that a lot of the old gang at ioacentral frequents these boards I decided on putting it here...feel free to move it if you see fit. The good folks at Cypress Gardens have decided to let me and nine other people make use of one of their coasters on Saturday May 20th, 2006 to ride for Make A Wish. Its going to work like this: If you want to be part of it, you have to let me know...and its on a first come first serve basis. I'll need you to shoot me an email at yaytez@cs.com and let you know the rest, but here's the basics. We will be collecting pledges and donations for Make A Wish, and at the end of it all, we will present the money to Make a Wish. At which point we will ride on said coaster one hour for every thousand dollars we raise, upto 12 hours. If you dont know wh Ride For Chat Make A Wish Foundation is, they are an organization that helps children with life threatening illnesses with one big wish. Say they always wanted to be a firefighter, or spend a week at Universal, or disney....they make that wish come true. They also help a bit with doctors and bills, from what I understand. Very stand out people, and a very very worthy cause. Again, if you are interested in this, please either shoot me an email or send me a private message through the boards. And if you dont want to ride, and just want to help....I can let you know about that too. Thanks in advance.

We will be on the Triple Hurricane at Cypress Gardens for just over three hours. Thanks so much to all of you who have supported us, we couldnt have done it without you.
