Staff Report From Georgia CEO

Wednesday, July 24th, 2024

Wild Adventures Theme Park in Valdosta, Ga., is offering free admission to teachers, administrators, and school support staff during its annual Back to School Splash event this weekend, which includes a school supplies drive for Teacher’s Harvest.

"Our Back to School Splash event is all about celebrating educators and supporting students and teachers in our community," said Madison Tucker, public relations specialist. "We’re excited to offer free admission for teachers, and to provide another unforgettable weekend of fun at Wild Adventures and Splash Island Waterpark for our guests."

During Wild Adventures’ Back to School Splash on July 27–28, guests can enjoy a day of summer fun riding, sliding, and exploring. Public and private school teachers, administrators, and all school employees can receive free single-day admission with a valid school ID or proof of employment. Daycare workers and homeschool teachers are also eligible for free admission with proof of employment or a “letter of intent” filed with their state of residence. 

All guests can receive 50% off single-day admission during the event with a school supplies donation valued at least $10. The donations will be given to Teacher’s Harvest, a program of Second Harvest of South Georgia, to distribute to local schools.

"Second Harvest is excited to partner again with Wild Adventures again this year for a school supply drive for Teacher’s Harvest,” said Janna Luke, director of development and marketing at Second Harvest of South Georgia. “We will be reopening our free school supply store for teachers in August, and we look forward to the generous donations from this event to help us stock our shelves.”
