Julie is one of my idols.  I can't equal Maryben's record, the most
Juniors I ever sponsored at one ride was three, but we had a ball.  I
really hope I get the chance to sponsor Juniors again, those are the
most fun rides of all.

AMEN to that!  At this moment I'm sitting in my office, dressed as the
Cat in the Hat (complete with tail).  We're not having a party or
anything, in fact I'm the only employee here in costume ... but I'm
having fun.

Halloween rides, where riders ride in costume, are terrific!
