2008 SPECIAL EVENTS

Water Park Fun Planned June 14, 2008
at Wet’n Wild Emerald Pointe

Girl Scouts will flood Wet’n Wild Emerald Pointe on Saturday, June 14, for its 16th annual Girl Scout event. An event patch, a Ducky Derby, and a grand-prize drawing are just part of the fun for girls participating on that day. Although it is not required, the water park suggests that troops pre-purchase tickets to avoid long lines and enter the park more quickly. Ticket fees vary. To pre-purchase tickets or make advance reservations, call (800) 555-5900.

Look for the Wet’n Wild Emerald Pointe brochure being distributed to service units for information on pre-ordering a Girl Scout meal, as well as policies on coolers, parking, etc.
