EDITORIAL: Gary Slade, [email protected] CARTOON: Bubba Flint
Thank you Chip Cleary
Last year’s IAAPA Attractions Expo at the
Orange County Convention Center was
certainly filled with its share of unplanned
surprises and events that kept IAAPA Presi-
dent and CEO Chip Cleary hopping and up
into the late night hours one night, just to
Slade make sure the show could go on.
After many attendees made their com-
ments to AT last year about the poor quality of the rest
rooms at the OCCC, we asked Chip if he could look into
it. After all, clean rest rooms are a key part of our amuse-
ment industry and the image the parks send to their
paying customers on a daily basis.
During our recent visit with Chip at the annual Gold-
en Ticket Awards event at Dollywood, Cleary promised
that the rest room issues have been addressed by both
IAAPA and the OCCC, and that this year’s attendees will
see clean restrooms.
We have full faith that once again, Chip and his team
will see to it the job is done by the OCCC.
For that, we say thank you Chip Cleary!
