In the midst of their summer program, the CCIP J-1 interns (www.theccip.com) spent a Saturday together at Six Flags Great Adventure. The amusement park, which is located in New Jersey and is the second largest in the world, includes 13 roller coasters and dozens of other rides and games spread over eleven themed areas.
Six Flags Great Adventure has millions of visitors each year and is one of the region's most popular amusement parks. Roller coasters include Batman: The Ride and El Toro, one of the fastest and tallest wooden roller coasters in the world. There are also two water rides and a water park.
"We're working hard this summer and are having a lot of interesting educational experiences," one of the activity leaders remarked. "So visiting Six Flags was like a fun reward."
Over the course of the summer, more than 70 exchange visitors will take part in internships and cross-cultural activities. These group activities included Broadway shows, visiting the One World Trade Center, and meeting with local community leaders. Following the program's conclusion, most of the participants will return to begin their next school year.
One student said, "With everything I'm learning and experiencing during CCIP, I know I've gained a lot of skills that I'll be able to use at school and in my career."
