We’ve all been quite busy working on other things, and we haven’t been able to, unfortunately, put up some posts here.

So… We need YOU!

We’re looking for guest posters, or even better, regular posters! If you want to send in a guest post, check out this page. If you want to join our team full-time, contact us. We’re also looking for folks that might want to be a part of a weekly or bi-weekly podcast. You must speak fluent English to join us at Park Thoughts. We can arrange free admission and media permissions for our full-time writers. Our #1 priority at Park Thoughts is great and accurate content. We’re willing to work to make sure we get it! Park Thoughts does not directly pay any team members.

Don’t hesitate! Please contact us and help make Park Thoughts truly the best Amusement Industry Blog around!

Please leave a comment below answering those two questions!

Thanks for reading park thoughts!

You maybe thinking that this is going to be another one of these lame blogs about coasters. Well, it’s not! We will be posting honest opinions about topics in the news right now. After park trips, we’ll post reviews and give our general thoughts. Our Park Thoughts.

Remember to leave your thoughts! If you’re looking for in-depth conversations, or you want to post your opinion or trip report, check out the Park Thoughts Forum on the RCTLounge Forums.
