Trip to Kennywood amusement park

MEETING DATE/TIME

Date: 9/1 (Saturday)
Time: 11 AM
Meet: NSH Atrium

All who are going should let SoYoung know, so that we know how many tickets to get and don't leave anyone behind.

Transportation

How are we getting there and back?

To get to Kennywood, we have a bus that will take everyone there. Just show up at 11 AM. On the way back, all the new students get to try out the Pittsburgh bus system (PAT). Pittsburgh veterans can help.

To return to Pittsburgh, we will use the PAT (Port Authority Transit) bus. This is a good opportunity to get acquainted with the Pittsburgh bus system. Your CMU ID gets you onto any bus. The one going to and from Kennywood is 61C. You can pick up bus schedules at the University Center, if you feel the need. In the afternoon, the bus leaves Kennywood at around every hour and half hour. It winds through Squirrel Hill before returning to CMU. Remember to bring your CMU ID!

The new Phantom's Revenge

They modified the Steel Phantom (their biggest roller coaster), to the new Phantom's Revenge. Some facts: But if you don't like the fast roller coaster, there are plenty of other rides of all sizes and velocities. Walk around and enjoy the other roller coasters (above-ground and subterranean), water rides, rides that spin and tilt you, and rides that don't. :)

Food

Please bring some cash for munchies at the park.
