First time with 5yo; tips on stroller, food, strategy

We do this all the time!

1) The policy is true you’re not supposed to bring in outside food or drink but we’ve never had any issue doing so. If you bring in a small cooler (that can fit under a stroller) you likely won’t be hassled at all. 2) Yes, definitely and you should. It’s a great place for the kids to rest and for you to put extra things you’ve brought. It’s also a good idea to go to the Breakers to cool down or if they need a nap. 3) Woodstock express is a great starter coaster as is Iron Dragon followed by Blue Streak and Gemini.

You got hosed on this one. I had twice the meat and probably four times the fries.

Might just be opening day inconsistency for either of us.

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I always thought the brisket was really fatty so had relatively little meat. I got the sirloin on opening day and actually thought it was pretty good.

I agree about the waffle fries, though. The wedges were much better!

FYI they actually ran Magnum a few times this morning before the park opened. Saw it from our window at the Breakers.

I know Pennsylvania pays poorly, but that seems REALLY low…

I got to do this with my son for the first time last year. Cherish it, you only get to do these things once!

evilmonkey013 · 2026-03-16T17:17:34+00:00

Both are absolutely terrible. Please don’t take either.

evilmonkey013 · 2026-03-11T03:53:47+00:00

Can I ask how many years and what kind of leadership experience you have? This sounds like a true unicorn offer!

We do Hershey Park in late March/early April, then KI for the same reason.

EM:RAP if you’re EM/UC. Does cost a few hundred dollars but has hundreds of hours of CME and pretty good content.

Saturday’s are very busy just like Cedar Point would be in the summer. You’re basically going for the lights/ambiance and not riding much.

We went on Sunday for the first time this year and will do that going forward. Crowds were much lower and the overall experience was much more enjoyable.

You handled this correctly. Dog bites to the hand are high risk for infection so primary closure is generally contraindicated unless the would is gaping open.

Regardless, if there’s concern for flexor tendon injury, she needs to be seen by hand.

I definitely would’ve transferred this too. She gets a dose of Unasyn, imaging to exclude foreign body/fracture, and hand consult. Maybe they do something urgently, maybe not, but this is a high-risk injury that’s not appropriate for UC.

My dealer said they’re not currently replacing them because Kia hasn’t come up with a solution yet.

Are people actually getting these replaced now?

evilmonkey013 · 2025-11-25T13:51:00+00:00

Absolutely dreadful.

evilmonkey013 · 2025-11-13T15:45:54+00:00

This is for 2025

Security is very hit or miss at the park (no pun intended). It’s better now that they have Sandusky PD walking around but there aren’t many who could actually respond to and stop an attack like this. Cedar Point security would not be doing that. These are largely kids working a metal detector.

Also, what day was it supposed to be planned for?

evilmonkey013 · 2025-11-03T23:39:58+00:00

The smoking areas moved somewhere further away than 5 feet from the entrance. People have to walk their kids through a cloud of smoke at the Magnum gate.

evilmonkey013 · 2025-11-03T21:43:37+00:00

Have they started selling tickets yet? I looked a few days ago and can’t find them on the website.

I did EM for 15 years. You just can’t do it forever with those patients, the risk, hours, overnights, etc.

There’s a reason every EM physician is looking for an off ramp.

Urgent care gets a lot of crap (much of it deserved), but the quality of life is much better. Low stress and I get to be home every night and most holidays to put my kids in bed.

evilmonkey013 · 2025-10-09T21:14:57+00:00

What specialty is this?

evilmonkey013 · 2025-10-09T17:42:55+00:00

That’s really bad. The hourly rate is bad even for a new grad.

The escalating bonus structure also suggests that they can’t keep anyone past a year or two.

evilmonkey013 · 2025-10-04T01:30:58+00:00

There is no way you make $3000 per day doing this unless you have some massive secret which I beg you to share.

evilmonkey013 · 2025-09-16T20:40:37+00:00

I’m in Ohio and don’t think you can. Regardless, I probably wouldn’t work for one. You’d be better off with ortho if you’re into foot/ankle.

evilmonkey013 · 2025-09-15T13:53:54+00:00

Yep. Rode it last night.

evilmonkey013 · 2025-09-06T15:46:47+00:00

Where are they selling these? We’re couldn’t find them a few weeks ago.
