About Our Team

Tim Holloran

President & Head of events and Membership

My introduction to the enthusiast world was back in 2000. With the introduction of Superman: Ride of Steel at my home park, Six Flags New England. Soon thereafter, I found myself traveling to Cedar Point for the much anticipated Millennium Force! Let’s just say after experiencing Cedar Point I was hooked on finding that next thrill.

Fastforward to today, and I am lucky enough to organize events for some pretty great members and friends. I strive to bring a smile to each persons face I interact with, providing an experience that brings us all together in this crazy hobby we all love. Feel free to say hello if you ever see me on The Midway!

Chris Hughes

Discount Coordinator

I work with parks all across the country that extend discount offers for all of you. A majority of my work happens during the “off season” but I also work throughout the year on updating everyone on new discounts/promotions from parks.

Prior to stepping into my role as the Discount Coordinator, I helped our leadership launch our fan sites, specifically CPFansite and KIFansite. I also assist Tim with social media throughout the year.

I personally started getting interested in amusement parks in 1993 on my first trip to Kings Island. I live in Central Ohio where I consider Kings Island and Cedar Point my home parks. I worked at Kings Island in college on Diamondback, The Crypt and sometimes The Beast. I currently work in education. When I’m not at a park, I enjoy spending time in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, exploring the world of photography and spending time with friends/family.

You can generally find me near Diamondback, Mystic Timbers and The Beast at Kings Island or near Maverick, Valravn, GateKeeper and Raptor at Cedar Point!

Hope to see you on the Midway!

Chris Predkiewicz

Content Contributor

Hi everybody! I am Chris, a contributor to the Coaster Crew family. You may have seen me in some of our YouTube videos featuring attractions at Six Flags Great America near Chicago, Illinois.

I frequently visit most of the midwest parks including Six Flags Great America, Cedar Point, and Kings Island. I always look forward to taking a road trip and visiting new parks and attractions.

During the off-season and times when I am not travelling to amusement parks, I run a digital marketing and development company. My hobbies include amusement parks, application development, martial arts training, and discovering new experiences and places.

See you on the midways!

Bradley Kilgore

Content Contributor, General Manager of CPFansite

Hi everybody! I am Brad, the general manager of CPfansite and proud member of our parent company and roller coaster club, Coaster Crew. I have been going to Cedar Point since I was born and now go several times a week during the season. I have such a strong passion for the park’s history, atmosphere, people, and rides! My favorite roller coaster as a child was Magnum XL-200 and now my favorite ride is Millennium Force, which I have ridden almost 5,000 times!

I have so many friends that I have met at the park, both employees and guests and they are all like family to me.

When I am not at the park and not working, I am probably riding roller coasters at another park. I frequent Kings Island and help cover that park on CPfansite.

During the off-season, I do lots of work on the CPfansite website and enjoy my other hobby, Nintendo. I am a big-time collector and gamer of anything and everything that has to do with Nintendo. I am also a proud husband and father of two boys.

If you see me on the midways, say hi! I love meeting new people and new ride buddies!

Richard Shilhanek

Content Contributor Southwest Region

Hello Coaster Crew members and fans. My name is Richard, and I will be bringing you awesome content from the Southwest area of the country. You can currently find me most often on the weekends operating the steam trains for SFOT. I have been a fan of amusement parks for over 15 years, but it has only been in the last 6 years that I have been able to really travel and explore other parks and rides. When not operating the steam trains, I like to travel to other parks around the country with my favorite park being Cedar Point, and favorite ride being Maverick. Every year I try to add two new parks to my collection, and this year I will pass the 100 coaster credits milestone. I look forward to bringing you rare and unique content from parks around the country. RIDE ON!

Eric Karker

Content Contributor Mid West Region

Hey everyone! My name is Eric and I’m a contributor here at Coaster Crew. I’ve been an enthusiast since the time I rode my first coaster at Kings Dominion as a child. My first job was even as a ride operator on the now defunct Hyper Sonic XLC. My passion continues to thrive today as I travel to many of the parks for single day trips in the Midwest. I enjoy enjoy doing reviews of rides and parks and I hope you enjoy reading what I bring to the table.

Kyle Majkowski

Content Contributor New England Region

Hello everyone! My name is Kyle and I love amusement parks! Roller coasters have been a passion and hobby of mine since I was a child. I grew up, and still live in Massachusetts, with Six Flags New England being my home park. I can remember visiting Riverside with my father and telling him I would never ride a roller coaster in my life! One day I conquered that fear and they have been an obsession ever since. I’ve worked at Six Flags New England as a rides supervisor for six years, and I’m currently a hotel manager. You can find me contributing content for parks within the New England region, and New Jersey as well. I love to travel all around the US and Canada. Fun fact: I’m such a huge Disney fan I wouldn’t be surprised if I end up living in Florida one day. Besides amusement parks you can find me watching my local New England sports teams. Or simply counting the days until Halloween season starts again! If you see me in the midway be sure to say hello!
