That would be really cool, if I was MUCH closer to Coney Island, or at least in the area!
Best of luck with the event! |

| I'm still confused, is this event in Manitoba? If so, can you provide more details? If not, why are you asking here? |

Coney Island is near Kenora I believe - hence the request through the MBGA.

OOOOHHHHHH!!!! I thought you were referring to Coney Island in New York State!!!! I'm not familiar with Coney Island in Ontario. I've only been to Kenora twice.
I was as confused as the others.
This makes more sense now. Information helps

Yes, there's a very famous amusement park outside of New York City. I think this is where everyone's confusion is coming from. (and why yellow_sunflowers wanted you to fly her there and glacier_ice wanted a window seat).

Thats too funny - I never knew there was a Coney Island in Ontario. Yes, I was referring to the one in New York! Funny stuff.
I won't be able to make it as I have a dragonboat festival that weekend. |

I really didn't know what was going on. I assumed there was something much closer but since the humour was heading off the tracks and heading to New York, I just flew with it.
Sounds like fun, but I'll be travelling through the US that day. Driving back from the Toronto area and making a loop through Columbus, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Kansas City and Omaha. 10 States to add to my cache map.

| I think we're going to be at the lake on the 24th (Beauty Bay). If you still need some help, the geopups and I can probably catch the ferry over. I've been out here for 19 years and still haven't been to Coney Is. yet! |
