What's that?
We don't hav...Coaster Clubs?<br /><br />What's that?<br /><br />We don't have that over here. The only thing remotely close to Coaster Clubs is called "Orkut communities". Orkut, although something old and stupid, is still used over here in Brazil. So thats where people meet, but its not a Coaster Club.<br /><br />MichaelMichael (from Brazil)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10727806.post-34228627626496923702011-06-28T21:56:25.287-04:002011-06-28T21:56:25.287-04:00Coaster Clubs?

The club never gets involved with others, so therefore is one of the "peaceful" ones. Love the show guys and keep it up.<br /> -CanadaCoasterCentralCanadaCoasterCentralnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10727806.post-59960545309589138592011-06-28T00:06:35.538-04:002011-06-28T00:06:35.538-04:00I used to be a member of a roller coaster club and...I used to be a member of a roller coaster club and I enjoyed it because, as a coaster girl, I liked having an outlet to nerd out about roller coasters. I still like the idea of coaster clubs, but it can become a waste of money if you don't have time to go to events (and there are a lot of them) to enjoy the comraderie. So I think they can be fun and fulfill a social need, especially if you don't have someone to share your passion with. But like any love affair, enjoyment can turn into obsession and craziness if you don't have a balance of interests in your life.Dr. Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15839941741361481910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10727806.post-40046954162142297142011-06-27T23:14:49.127-04:002011-06-27T23:14:49.127-04:00EB kinda gave my answer last week.

I joined the Coaster Crew 2 years ago and now just about any time I want to go, I can meet up with someone. Through them I have also met folks from MACC, ACE, TPR and Coaster Zombies. Sure, there are some people you meet who you are not best friends with, or who take things a little too seriously, but it's not too hard to separate yourself from them if you try hard enough. But once you make actual friends, it is well worth the investment in time.BigAlnoreply@blogger.com
