Texas A&M Theme Park Organization

WHO ARE WE?

The Texas A&M Theme Park Organization (TPO) is the only Texas A&M Student Organization specializing in the theme park industry. As a Themed Entertainment Association (TEA) NextGen Organization, TPO gives students access to professional network opportunities within the amusement parks industry. The Theme Park Organization brings together students who are passionate about theme parks, welcoming both professionally focused students and casual theme park enthusiasts. All students interested in amusement parks, riding rollercoasters, or any other forms of themed entertainment are welcome!

TRIPS

TPO goes on monthly trips to parks, normally in Texas. We've gone to many different parks such as Six Flags: Fiesta Texas, Sea World, Schlitterbahn, Silver Dollar City, and Kemah Boardwalk. Historically, TPO has also gotten discounted tickets and free tickets, but this varys on a park-to-park basis. To go on trips TPO requires $20 in dues per semester, to help pay for org events and t-shirts. Each member who pays dues will receive a shirt if available. 

SOCIALS!

TPO also has frequent socials where we all get to know each other. These socials could be going to the movies, or just simply going to eat after a meeting. Socials will typically be announced beforehand so make sure you stay up-to-date on our ⁠discord.

WEEKLY MEETINGS

We have weekly meetings in the MSC typically in the afternoon. These dates/times differ per semester, so make sure to join the discord for reminders. These meetings will mainly focus on theme park-related presentations & activities, with a few exceptions throughout the semester. These exceptions may include guest speakers from the industry, game nights, or holiday events.
