Millennium Walkback - parking question

Has anybody on here been to a Millennium Walkback, yet?

I'm thinking of going this weekend and was curious about parking. Are you able to park at the lot by the marina gate? If you do park there are you permitted to leave the car there all day?

Also, I don't see anything on the website regarding reservations for the walkback. I assume you just show up.

Just park by the front gate and walk there... it's not that far of a walk

Thanks

What is the Millennium walkback anyways? I've seen so many pics and never really knew what it was...

From the website:

THE MILLENNIUM WALKBACK - Saturdays & Sundays, starting Sunday, May 11

NOTE: This event is open to members of officially recognized roller coaster clubs only. Every participant MUST show their membership card to be admitted. For the complete list of recognized clubs, click here.

Want to REALLY be the first to ride the "Best Steel Roller Coaster in the World" every weekend?

Here's how it works. You'll meet us at the Marina Gate 10 minutes prior to Early Entry (8:50 a.m. on most days). If you meet us at 8:51, you're already late. The party leaves at 8:50 every morning, so make your plans to get there early!

We'll walk you back to Millennium Force where you'll have the first ride of the day. And after you're done, you'll enjoy EARLY ENTRY from 9-10 a.m.

Remember, this begins on Sunday, May 11 - NOT on opening day. Park admission required.

I would recommend being there at least 15 minutes early. My son and I went Sunday and got to the gate at 8:49, and they had already left.

All this, just go get one cycle on the ride..Neat deal, but if I miss it, I miss it. I'll go enjoy the resort gate & John McCain

Last time we did the walkback we got two rides. They let us through the handicap exit to jump right back in line before the early entry swarm hit

Still is only 10 mins. Cool idea and neat thing they added, but it's not majestically fantastic. It's not a must do every weekend visit IMO

Does anyone know if the pictures they take are posted anywhere?

Of course they are. Twitter.

I did the walkback on Saturday and loved it. We got 3 rides before the early entry folks started showing up. Great way to start the morning.

I hope CP continues the walkback next season. It's a nice perk for those who are in a recognized coaster club.

I have yet to do it this year. I keep wanting to do it, but have trouble getting up that early with my work schedule during the week. How long does the Millennium Force walk back go till?

It goes from 9:50 AM until you've made your way over to Millennium... Since it's a walk back to Millennium...

No I mean how long in the season does this go till? Sorry I should have specified that.

Ah, that. Why didn't you say so? ;)

There is no listed end date that I can find so it should be through the end of the season, or until further notice.

Does anybody know how I can find the list of recognized coaster clubs for the Millennium Walkback?
