Our Wild Adventures season passes have now expired. We usually only get them every other year, but due to the kids having field trips to this park in back-to-back years, we were pass holders for both 2016 and 2017. We have had a great time riding the rides, seeing the animals, and visiting the water park in the summer. We even saw Andy Grammer and the Harlem Globetrotters here. It is unlikely that we will visit in 2018, so we wanted to give our local park a proper farewell. We attended the Christmas in the Park event to get one more go at our favorite attractions. We also completed a scavenger hunt because we heard that they were going to draw a name from all completed scavenger hunt forms and the winner would get four 5-year season passes. To complete the scavenger hunt, we had to locate four hidden hearts in the park. We were given clues to help us locate the hearts. It took us a while, but we found them all. Who knows? Maybe we'll win the drawing and get the 5-year passes. Fingers crossed.
Since we won't be Wild Adventures pass holders this year, we decided to try getting Six Flags season passes. The kids and I are in Atlanta several times a year with robotics competitions, so we would have the opportunity to visit enough times to justify the cost. We can also use the passes at any Six Flags park, so we could visit others when we travel in the spring and summer. Even though the passes are good at any park, the first visit has to be to your home park. The kids and I picked up our passes after a robotics competition in November, but Brian did not have his yet. He had a few days off after New Year's, so we headed to Atlanta to get his pass. We arrived on the next-to-last operating day of the season, and it was below freezing temperature. While there, we rode the Georgia Scorcher. The frigid air hitting our skin did not feel the best, so we decided that maybe we should put off riding the other coasters until the park reopens in the spring. It's going to be fun.
