Clint Novak is the General Manager of Fun Land in Fredericksburg and oversees Fun Land in Fairfax, both in Virginia. As a dedicated enthusiast of the industry, Clint looks at the guest experience from the perspective of the guest himself. Upon becoming Fun Land's General Manager, Clint immediately took a deep dive into every issue that guests were having that detracted from their overall experience, and focused on making improvements that in turn, resulted in higher satisfaction, stronger perception of value, and an improved experience that proved the return on investment. Additionally, Fun Land strives to be an active member of the local community, which has resulted in very meaningful experiences that take guest satisfaction to the next level. Clint talks about how he stays connected with managers and owners of similar venues to Fun Land to collaborate on ways to improve the guest experience, and that sharing of ideas can be highly beneficial. And when it comes to employee satisfaction, it's not one thing that keeps employees motivated, but a culmination of little things that add up to ways to keep employees happy, engaged, and retained.

The guys had planned on producing a regular show this week, but Mike came down with a pretty bad case of the flu. So, after some thought, they decided to enlist the help of Clint Novak from The Coaster Crew and dig out an episode of the show that has never been heard on our podcast feed before! Let me explain.... Back in 2007, after Coaster Radio 1.0 had gone off the air, Mike, Flava and Mario formed a team to compete in the first ever "Single Riders Marathon" at Kennywood Park. Now, the marathon had nothing to do with being single.  Instead, it meant that each marathon rider would fill an empty seat on a coaster and complete as many laps as possible during the day. People would then pledge a certain amount of money for every coaster lap counted. As part of this event, Flava , Mario and Mike produced an episode of "The Coaster Crew's Guide to the Midway" on-location at the park. We thought this show was lost forever, but Will Holder was able to dig it up out of the archives this week! So, since Mike is sick, we decided to play this show for the first time ever on OUR podcast. For all of you who have missed Flava and Mario... this one's for you. For all of you who have missed Flava and Mario... this one's for you.
