There are sometimes when I watch TPR videos and see those people in the 2-4 rows behind Rob and ask myself "Why are these people really close friends with Rob?" and then I realize "Oh yeah, free trip expenses."

Other clubs may pay officer expenses to attend certain industry conventions and events.

Just got this in the mail today!

This is the 3rd time since my welcome packet arrived, that I have received something from Club TPR

I was looking forward to Media Day and I have some questions for anyone to answer. I was looking into joining GOCC for Media Day, but encountered several different levels of membership. Would the most basic level be accepted for Media Day? Also, what's the difference between single and family? Does family come with more than one card? Could I get more than one person into Media Day on the family level? I know nothing official has been announced yet, but I was getting tired of waiting and thought I'd get some opinions.

Could someone help me out. I'm thinking of joining a coaster club but am I too young to do so? And which clubs would be right for me?

^^Usually for events like Holi-Wood Nights and Coastermania there is a $20 Membership fee requirement. I would recommend going for the $20 membership, It's only $5 more, The Streak is pretty cool to have, and It gets you into more events.

^ GOCC and CoasterBuzz are good starters, it's a good value and gets you into plenty of local coaster events. ACE and TPR are good if you want to expand the amount of coaster events you want to attend but are a little pricey. Though personally I don't like the leaders, or in the case of TPR Dictator for Life, of either Club.

Single is just that: one membership card for one person. Single memberships must receive a mailed Streak newsletter to be eligible for HoliWood Nights.

Couple is two cards for two people (can be any two people as long as they reside at the same address; does not have to be a "couple" in the romantic sense). If mailed, a couple gets one copy of each edition of Streak.

Family covers everyone at the same address, with a separate membership card for each person. If mailed, family memberships receive two copies of each Streak edition.

This thread has totally answered a question I asked in the Media Day Thread! I will be joining GOCC, after a long time following them and checking out all of their content online and hearing what people here have had to say about them, I am totally with them! Can't wait to become an official member!

I joined The Coaster Crew earlier in the night after hearing about KIC/The Coaster Crew's new partnership! So excited to be a part of both KIC and The Coaster Crew!

More out of curiosity than anything, is anyone here member of multiple clubs? If so which ones?

Yes, someone is. So many, it's embarrassing.

I feel as if someone is dodging admittance to the it...

I used to be a member of Coaster Crew and ACE....dropped ACE.

As a member of KIC I would love to do 2 clubs between GOCC and CC. I might do so, especially to support KIC even more.

Two months...

It has been over TWO MONTHS since I paid for my Club TPR membership and I have still not received any of welcoming stuff.

An e-mail shall be put into order...

That sounds like it would be really Twisty on your nerves and Robb you of some peace of mind.

Robb has been in India I believe. There was a whole discussion about this on the TPR forum.

I received an email on 3/6 stating "Your welcome packet with your Club TPR membership card and other goodies should arrive in about 10 - 15 business days from receiving this email."

So they are working on sending them out.

It took a few months for me to get mine. I imagine they will make sure everything is out to people by Banshee media day.

I know that most clubs set a join deadline for this purpose. We shall see how many stay on schedule. I already have mine from GOCC and Coaster Crew, so I am good, but I know some have yet to receive and joined when I did. Not sure if they just haven't updated getting it or not or if it really hasn't been sent.

Can, and will any of y'all tell me how to contact Coaster Crew about my membership card? I signed up and paid, over two weeks ago. I did my boyfriend's right after mine, and his card already arrived. What should I do?

There's a Coaster Crew section here on KIC; you could try asking there. Coaster Crew VP Tim Holloran (coasterboysfne) checks in there occasionally. If he doesn't respond in a short period of time, I can poke him on Facebook for you since I have him as a friend there.

EDIT: I only thought of this after submitting the post: you could also just send a PM to coasterboysfne, which would be more likely to grab Tim's attention.

Thank you so much!

Edit (to avoid double posting): How long should I wait for a response? I sent the message last night.

Joined ACE awhile back and have been happy with my purchase, but that's me.

Yeah. Me, too. A while back....

[25 years ago....ALREADY?]

I will probably renew when the time comes.

Thank you so much!

Whoops, I only saw this just now. Give it a few days; Tim is busy with a GOCC/Coaster Crew joint event at Dollywood today. Hopefully he should respond next week.

In other news, my GOCC renewal notice arrived in the mail today.

Next week? It'll be 3 weeks tomorrow, and my mom is beyond frustrated. I hope it arrives soon.

I also received one today. My membership expires the day after Banshee media day, so I lucked out.

Hooray. It's been over 3 weeks since the money was taken off for my Coaster Crew membership, and still no card. I now have a seriously PO'd mother, and a father who isn't far behind. I hope I hear something soon.

Sorry that I keep complaining. It's just frustrating, especially since the one I did after doing my own, arrived like, 2 weeks ago.

^ Did you send Tim a forum PM or an e-mail?

If the former, try the latter. Forum messages are easy to miss with the default settings.

The only way I know to contact him is through this forum. Heck, the only reason I know that is because jcgoble3 told me his username in this thread.

Edit: Should I try emailing him with the email address from which I got my confirmation?
