I didn’t want to come on this trip. I would have rather been working. My mom made me go on the trip because she thought I would have fun and because I should get more involved in Girls Inc. I didn’t want to come on the trip because I wanted to stay with my mom and my sister. When I got on the bus I wasn’t as excited as everyone else but now that I am here, I am glad my mom made me come. I’ve met new people, visited new places and had loads of fun. If it wasn’t for my mom, I wouldn’t be here and for that I thank her and want to tell her myself. – Kelsey 1 Page My name is Deja’nae, I am 13 years old. I have been going to Girls Inc. for 8 years. I like Girls Inc. because it has given me lots of opportunities, this trip being one of them…What I hope to get out of this trip is an experience to see placed I’ve never seen before…I hope to take plenty of pictures and capture lots of memories. I’m nervous about being on the Mississippi River because I am afraid to be on water traveling, but I know it’s going to be worth it.

  • In the Roller Coaster World, RMC Towers Above the Competition
    In the roller coaster world, RMC towers above the competition Author : No offense to B&M, Intamin, Mack, and GCI, but Rocky Mountain Construction, a.k.a RMC, is the most innovative coaster manufacturer in the entire world. They've completely revolutionized the wooden coaster, enabling them to do things almost unheard of years ago. RMC has come a long way in such a short period of time, and they aren't slowing down anytime soon. Founded in 2001, RMC is fairly new to the coaster game. [DanielG] Established by Fred Grubb and Suanne Dedmon, RMC got cooking when they brought on Alan Schilke from Ride Centerline to help Grubb, who had previous work experience designing homes and zoo exhibits, with the coaster design. The two have developed some of RMC's most well-known coaster elements, including 1 / 2 their patented I-box track. A signature piece of RMC coasters, the I-box track requires less maintenance than a standard wooden coaster, and it also allows for more thrilling features such as twists and inversions. The first coaster to feature the I-box track was The New Texas Giant at Six Flags Over Texas. RMC followed up its debut by building two more coaster for 2013. They introduced both the Rattler at Six Flags Fiesta Texas and Outlaw Run at Silver Dollar City as their second and third coasters. But unlike New Texas Giant and The Rattler, Outlaw Run wasn't just re-tracked, but rather built from scratch. It took RMC four years to develop the wood beams used on Outlaw Run, making it their most ambitious project yet.
