USA 2018 - Let's Go Round AgainDates: Friday 1st June to Sunday 17th June 2018
Location: USA As part of the RCCGB's 30th anniversary celebrations, 'USA 2018 - Let's Go Round Again' will depart the UK on Friday 1st June and return on Sunday 17th June 2018 where over 70 club members will be enjoying over 100 different coasters in over 10 of America's best theme parks. Parks will include Knoebels, Cedar Point, Kennywood, Kentucky Kingdom & Dollywood. That means they will experience Top Thrill Dragster, Phantom's Revenge, The Beast, Lightning Rod and my favourite Woodie, The Phoenix! And that's just a few of the dozens of amazing coasters on the tour. We will also be arranging loads of ERS's (Exclusive Ride Sessions) throughout the tour as well. We've setup a dedicated page for information about this trip as it develops. You can click here to go to it, or use the quicklink button at the bottom of the homepage! SORRY, BUT THE DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS FOR THIS TRIP HAS PASSED |

Summer Bash 2018Dates: TBA
Location: TBA This is normally a small 'meet-at-the-park' type event where over 50 coaster crazy people simply turn up and have fun. The destination for this trip is unknown at the moment. During lunch at Loopathon 2017, Nev asked people where they would like to go and many suggestions were called out, so watch this space as we move into the new coaster season in 2018. |
