"Thank you" for all of the wonderful generosity that is shared in the name of Holiday World.

I have not visited your park yet, but I am excitedly looking forward to visiting this June. I have been planning a short trip to take my niece on kind of as a celebration for all of her hard work. She is finishing up this school year at Memphis University.

Holiday World was already one of the parks I knew of in the general area that we could visit, but I had not completely outlined the trip yet. After reading about all of the selfless community projects that Holiday World does, I was intrigued. I discovered about you making the effort to help your patrons with the terrific plan to offer food choices in the park for those who suffer through food allergies. Soon after that you win an award for your continued attention to park safety. These are just more links in a very long chain you have forged over the years which shows how much you genuinely care for the park, its patrons, and its employees. I am inspired by your dedication to community in addition to the time and effort you spend to ensure that everyone has a great time when they visit Holiday World.

Times right now in our country are tough for almost everyone, and the only way we can make it through is by helping each other. (As a teacher, even when times aren't tough, times are tough.) I work with special education students who have emotional and behavioral problems, and that is the idea I try to instill into them all of the time. Any selfless thing we can do for our neighbor, no matter how insignificant it might seem at the time, can be rewarding beyond one's imagination for everyone involved.

Holiday World is a glimmering example of generosity, a banner of awareness for continued involvement and its benefits to the community. It is more than obvious that you care infinitely more for others than you do for simply offering an acceptable product just to make an extra dollar. In contrast, you offer a superior product that is completely financially reasonable. Holiday World is not just a park with terrific, award winning rides. It isn't simply a great place where you can be sure that you are going to have an exciting experience while staying safe. By making the effort to keep the expenses for a family who visits down, Holiday World isn't trying to bleed its patrons' wallets for all of their money. Holiday World is all of these wonderful things, but the greatest thing of all, Holiday World is an amusement park with a heart.

After reading through all of the examples of your generosity, my decision has become a no-brainer. We are definitely visiting Holiday World in June. I've already bought my Houston to Memphis airline ticket, and we look forward to visiting Holiday World June 21.

And again, thank you and God bless you for all of your involvement and hard work in the community.

Sincerely,
