August 20, 2024 — Hundreds of members and their families came out on a beautiful Saturday, Aug. 10, for the PEF Membership Benefits Program’s Family and Friends Day at Six Flags Great Escape in Queensbury. MBP holds several such events each summer, letting members and their families enjoy amusement parks for an affordable price.
More than 400 PEF members were treated to food and fun under the sun for just $30. Members like Anna Bogusky were grateful for the discount, lamenting that the price for parking alone at the theme park would have been a deterrent otherwise.
“Parking is already $35,” said Bogusky, a program operations specialist who works at OPWDD. “I’m so glad that I only paid basically for admission to the park and don’t have to worry about anything else.”
Members were also given a chance to win tons of prizes secured by PEF MBP including Albany Park, Ride and Fly tickets, gift cards, movie tickets, Baseball Hall of Fame memberships and yes — more Six Flags Great Escape and New England tickets.
This was the last Family and Friends Day of Summer 2024, but follow @PEFMBP on Facebook, X and Instagram to be the first to hear about next year’s events!
