Six Flags Fiesta Texas- Spring 2014
For the first time in TPO history, University of Texas TPEG allowed us to join them for a behind-the-scenes tour of Six Flags Fiesta Texas in San Antonio.
We were allowed behind the scenes of Fiesta Texas' newest coaster-the Iron Rattler. TPO was also able to spend the morning with Jeffrey Siebert, the Marketing Director for Fiesta Texas. |

Hawaiian Falls Pflugerville- Fall 2014
TPO's first trip to a water park! We met with Ty Weitzel and John Hoelscher and got to see some of the behind-the-scenes facilities of the park and learn about some of the upcoming expansions of the property. We also learned some unique details of the industry.
We then spent the afternoon enjoying the water park and adventure park. This was one of the most unique trips we've done yet due to the smaller size of the park and the fact that it's still undergoing initial construction. |

Billings Productions- Fall 2014
Billings Productions, Inc. is one of the only companies in the world that makes life-sized animatronic dinosaurs. We visited with Robby Gilbert and Lauren Billings at Billings' facility in Allen, Texas. We learned all about The Dinosaur Company and The Giant Bug Company, two of the companies that make up Billings Productions, Inc.
We were able to get up close and personal with all aspects of their process, from the initial concept and sculpture to the mechanics and finishing of their animatronics. |
