This past weekend was great... The Coaches Against MM Tournament was great... There were many families at the park supporting all the kids. We are now preparing for this coming weekend which is the first week of Bill Beckham. Mom tells me that busy is not the word, so we will see... O and to add to the madness we are placing the carts this week as well... We are adding ice cream to them, so hopefully its a hit and everyone enjoys it... Well thats a quick update as to whats going on... Hopefully the picture up loader works this week, and I'm going to add some images... Take care... FYI: I had to place some pictures of Bentley on here... Love this little guy... Finally got to spend some time with him this week... Anyway feel free to check them out...

It has been a, crazy, fun, exciting, enjoyable past few weeks, but at the end of the day ill take it over the opposite... Its hard to believe we are already at the end of May, and will soon be half way through 2014... Its amazing how fast things move when you stay busy... I'm actually in the process of taking on a few other tasks as well... Yes i'm busy enough, but i love the challenge... The park is amazing i have made some great connections and i hope to be apart of it along with our entire family for several years, but there are other goals i have as well, so i'm going to continue doing what i'm doing for Mom & Dad, but take on more as well... Your either growing or dying... I guess the question is we all have 24 hours each day, so how are you going to spend yours... I plan to write a book one day about how our family has spent ours... Boy that will be interesting... Enough about me, this is supposed to be specifically about Wright's Concessions and not "Nathan Wright" haha. Anyway we are entering into the busiest 3 months at the park and i'm going to try and get as many pictures as possible... We have had the carts up and going for the last 2 weeks... We have some big plans for them, but check out the pictures below... Anyway keep watching as we will be posting more images soon...
P.S. Sorry the picture up loader is not working right now, but once its back up ill upload the images... Uploader finally started working on 6-4-14

Wow, boy it has been a crazy past few weeks,,, Anyway i will keep this short as i do not want you to think i just fell off the face of the earth. Since i returned i have been on my feet daily in order to get things back together,,, While i was gone i had a little thinking time, and was able to gather a few ideas for us to work on in the off season... I'm very excited to enter the busy months here at the park... It will be busy, but busy always means fun... Well i feel like im rambling. I will update again later most likely after the weekend and include some pictures in the next post. Anyway stay tuned...
Friday April 18, 2014
All i can say is what a week. I have been crazy busy catching up on everything from my absence. I must say I'm very grateful to be busy, its much better than the alternative. Anyway i wanted to keep this very short and sweet today, but also send out our Easter love to all of you. I'm heading south again here is the next couple of days, so if i can stay awake at night ill post again. It never seems to work out that way, but i will try my best. Half the time my brain is gone and i wake up with my head laying on the keyboard. We do have a few pictures to share with you all, which you will find below... Until next time take care... LEAVE US YOUR COMMENTS BELOW.

Well i leave for a week, and boy you should see all the paperwork i come back to. I have literally spent the last 2 days catching up... I tried to do it all while i was gone at night, but i always seemed to find my face laying in the keyboard the next morning. Anyway i finally got to it today, and believe it or not its coming right along... Mom sent me a few pictures over the weekend of you all and i wanted to take the opportunity to post them, and shoot you an update... Anyway this past weekend at the park was great, everything went smoothly from what i heard. Anyway i'm going tomorrow to tie up a few loose ends from the past week, and then everything should be in order again. I'm leaving again next week and will not be back until the 6th or 7th, so hopefully i find time to shoot out another post then... Anyway in the meantime feel free to comment...

What a weekend it has been... Great people, and great food. What more can a person ask for. You know life is made in all the little moments we create on a daily basis, but, there are many times we have no idea how precious they are in the moment, but when you are able to simply pull out your phone and snap a picture, then look back at it later boy does it hit you... Everything may not always be great in the moment, but when you put all the memories together its typically enough to knock a person off the feet with emotions. It really makes you stand back and realize life is short and we need to enjoy it while its here, as it could be gone in the snap of a finger. Anyway just had to get that off my chest. Now back on topic. This past weekend was amazing, everything went smooth, haha who am i kidding? haha just a few little issues but overall things went great, and I'm so excited for this entire season to unfold. We have been in this industry our entire lives, and never have i been to a venue where people are constantly coming up and giving great comments. Its crazy, but so amazing... The other day i was out at the park and a little kid walks up along with his brother and ask for 10 pieces of gum, so i continued to ring him up, and as we were joking around his brother whispered something in his ear, and the little kid said "can you make it 9" and i said well OK if you want, so i continued to give him his 10 cents back, and with great joy the kid looked up at me and said "this is for you". Later on that evening he comes back over and randomly gives me a hi five and said "i just wanted to tell you bye". To me thats awesome, and it meant a lot. It goes to show that their are good people in this world. Its great to have a business surrounded by such amazing people. Anyway thats just a little story for you, i wish i would have gotten a picture with him, but i never gave it a thought. Anyway it was a great weekend, and i can not wait until the next one... By the way i think winter may be over as i actually broke a sweat today... Mom, Jason, and all the employees worked there you know what off, but we are all happy and ready for more... Life is great, god is great, and we are so blessed to have this opportunity, and to meet some amazing people. Anyway below is a couple pictures i took over the weekend. I will get more soon.
Friday April 4, 2014
Well we have finally made it to April. I must say we have been crazy busy this week trying to tie up all the loose ends. Next week we are using the carts for the first time, which should be interesting. As you know all new things have a tendency to be very interesting. Anyway it should be good. As we speak we are entering into another busy weekend at the park. I must say personally i believe busy weekends are fun, and very entertaining to watch unfold. Anyway i hope you all are enjoying this journey as much as we are. Yes i know i make it all sound great and I'm sure you wonder if its all really great. I know how much i love back scenes entertainment, and I'm sure you all love the drama as well... If not you would not be reading this.. HAHA Anyway everything is great at the park, and honestly we are happy as ever, but is there disagreements? Yes there are occasionally, but thats business for ya... I will elaborate more later... Stay tuned...
Monday March 31, 2014
Well we have officially finished the first month at the park. Mom and i were discussing it today along with whats to come, and honestly we could not come up with a word better then "exciting". The first month has been amazing. In the month of March we finished furnishing the stands with all equipment, got each stand stocked, moved carts to park, received the new shirts, changed the signs on each of the 3 buildings, plus several more things that are just not at the front of my mind right now. There are several good days to come and i can not explain the way it feels to be working along side your family, and the ones you love the most. I know i promised in the last post i would be posting more pictures soon, and i will we are always busy with something, so i just haven't got it done, but i will... Also i added a Facebook comment box to make it easier for you all to comment, so please keep in touch with us, and let us know how we are doing...
Monday March 24, 2014
Holy smokes usually I'm the one that attempts to find all the negatives to talk about, but there hasn't been 1 bad thing to talk about this week... Everything went extremely well, we have replaced the signs on each of the 3 buildings, and everyone seems to like them. I must say it was HELL getting all that old vinyl off, and yes yours truly is the one that did it... After 2 days of peeling and several burns later the job was complete, i must say Jason and i have a tendency to argue at times but its still great to work with him. We always seem to have a great time when we are together. As for mom what can i say? She is brilliant at what she does, and she does a fantastic job at it... Most of you know I'm not there a lot, but the few times i' am i never fail to see someone come up and chat with her, and to me thats what its all about. As you all know she is a great person, and its an honor to call her my mom. I'm so happy for her with this new journey, and i'm happy to be in the background helping where she needs it the most... Also i had the opportunity to meet Jack & Luanne over the weekend after i walked passed them several times they finally figured out who i was and pointed me out... It was funny, great people. Its not everyday you find people who are genuine and kind... Anyway ill post some pictures here but thats been the past weekend through my eyes...
Friday March 22, 2014
Well 7-Up did not come thru with the signs but they did come thru with the shirts. In fact they came in yesterday, and i must say they look pretty awesome. If you are down at the park this weekend be sure to check out the new look, and let us know your opinion in the comments section of this page. As for the signs on top of the buildings we got everything worked out and we plan on getting them up this afternoon on stand 1 and 2 but its still questionable as we are unsure when they will be complete today... By golly it was a heck of a job peeling all the previous vinyl off... I spend 2 days and have blisters all over my hand, laid my arm on the heat gun, along with several other incidents. (i know poor baby right?) Anyway its complete and looking forward it was all for the best. We are excited to see the new look on the building. While i'm unsure as to weather you will see them this weekend i'm positive you will see them next week if you are down at the park... Also you all may have noticed our logo on the sign out by the road... If you have not seen it yet be sure to check it out... We owe a huge thanks to Jack for this... Like always we love to hear from you all, so feel free to shoot over any comments...
Monday March 17, 2014
Boy has it been an exciting week, we are hoping 7-up comes through this week with our signs for the tops of the buildings along with our shirts. They gave us a golf cart that will not even run? They said they are not paying to fix it. Hum well you can guess how we feel about that one. I do believe its for sure that all 3 stands will officially be open this weekend for the first time this season, even knowing we have been in the industry our entire lives i still find myself saying "this will be the true test". But hey i guess i just love to keep it fun, and see all the smiling faces walk away happy. The thought that we can exchange a few dollars for something cold to drink, gives me great pleasure in knowing i have helped that person have a better day, or even play a better game. Anyway i love to keep these short and interesting, so thats about all, but coming soon i will be posting some pictures and videos, so stay tuned. From the Wright's we love you all... As always come see us...
Tuesday March 11, 2014
Well i suppose its official day 1 is in the books, and it was a successful one at that. We got most of the kinks worked out with the registers, and everything is great. I went over and helped mom & Jason for a few hours, and met some great people. I must say it was crazy cold there towards the end of the night, i think we were all growing ice bergs. Anyway we are in a new week and ready to take it on.
Friday March 7, 2014
OK so here we go, tomorrow is day 1, and i must say we can not be anymore excited for everything to finally come together. Jack came out today and looked through the stands, and everything is great. Anyway hopefully you all have a fantastic weekend.
Tuesday March 1, 2014
I guess all i can say is that it has been a crazy, wild, fun, yet amazing day. Mom and Dad have officially placed there first orders of the season. Everything is pretty much together, and ready for day 1. Today we bought a ice maker along with a few other odds and ends, later on we went to eat at Outback for Jasons birthday. As normal that was a complete blast! Especially playing with Bentley. He threw Moms phone across the restaurant floor and drew attention to himself... I swear that kid is just like his momma... He loves drawing attention to himself... Anyway i'll have some more updates soon.
Wednesday February 26, 2014
Well here we are a week and a half before the park opens for its first games of the season, and at the same time if your listening to the weather we are preparing for the biggest storm of the winter. I guess i should say who know as the meteoroligists or how ever you spell that work are typically wrong. I believe we have heard that same line about 4 or 5 times this winter. Anyway how the heck are you all... We would love to hear from you, anyway we pretty much have everything ready to go other than the signage on the top of the buildings (we are waiting on 7-Up) and the stock deliveries which will be here early next week. My mom (Angie) is extremely excited to get everything moving. This has our whole family excited. We are all extremely thrilled for her getting the park. This is a huge opportunity for us all, and we can not wait to see it all happen. We are excited to have you all on the ride with us. Its our goal to service you to the best of our ability. If you ever run into any issues or complaints please click the comments button on the top of this page. Anyway like i always say we would love to meet you so be sure to stop by and say hey...
Wednesday February 19, 2014
Today was a great day other than the few minor issues with the internet. I have spoken with ATT several times over the last few days in order to get the line buried at stand 2, and while they have been helpful its not looking like its going to happen just yet. They have come to the conclusion that prior to them laying the line all the snow will have to melt, so the lady i spoke with today said it WILL be done prior to March 12. So i guess that will have to work. In the meantime i guess we will use hotspots... Should be interesting. Anyway tomorrow im installing cameras, and Mom is getting stand 3 ready to go. If you all have any questions feel free to ask away...

Today was overall a great day. Nathan was up all night last night getting a few things together and finalizing all the technology parts needed for the park. Then this morning he had a meeting with Compensation Solutions, which is a grow Ohio company. It was a guy by the name of Brett Pizzuto, I told him i would love to have his last name. Hell come on who wouldent want a name like that. Anyway i arrived at his office like 3 hours late... I told him i had another meeting, but i was up all night and had just woke up. Was not trying to lie or anything, but you know how it is. Anyway once i finally left there i had another meeting at the park to get the internet hooked up in stand 2. Well about that. It is not going to be as easy as i had origionally thought. The line previously in the stand had been cut off, so long story short they are going to have to run another new line. The only issue is that the darned on ground is hard and its supposed to snow 4 inches tomorrow. So because we open in about 3 weeks, he placed and order to get the work done as an emergency, so once he finally left i called ATT and the lady that answered said the work is scheduled to be done before noon tomorrow, so i was like HELL YEAH. I must say the work is not done yet so we will just have to wait and see if it gets done tomorrow like they told me. Anyway if they get stand 2 figured out and they are able to get the line in a position where its not lyiong on the ground than i will call and schedule stand 3. Well just wanted to update you all here... I love hearing the backscenes stories, so i figured you may as well... If there is other parts you would rather hear about let me know and ill talk about those areas of the business... Thanks for reading... Be sure to come visit us at the park...

First off i guess i should say Happy Valentines Day. Its been a crazy hectic day here at the Wrights trying to get everything together for the new business... The issues with taxes is the most pain in the ass. I can not imagine doing this for a living. Anyway things are coming together and i just wanted to drop a line here and let you all know how its going... Im sure we have no followers at this point in time, but thats ok you have to start sometime... If you are reading this i would like to express a huge thank you on behalf of the entire Wright's family.
Wednesday February 12, 2014
