\"PEFMay 7, 2024<\/em> — The PEF Membership Benefits Program is once again offering PEF members and retirees the opportunity to chase some fun this summer at one of two special events for PEF families and friends. All members and retirees across New York are encouraged to take advantage of a special ticket price offer at two Six Flags parks.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This year, tickets are being offered for $30 per person for events at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, N.J., on July 13, and Six Flags Great Escape in Queensbury, N.Y., on August 10. Tickets for these two popular events are selling fast.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEvery year since PEF MBP started offering these family and friend day events, members and retirees wait patiently for ticket sales to begin. They realize the tremendous savings associated with the price of the tickets for park entry, parking, and a fabulous buffet lunch,\u201d said Stephanie McLean-Beathley, PEF MBP Administrator. \u201cIt\u2019s a deal that can\u2019t be found elsewhere.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PEF members and retirees can purchase up to four (4) e-tickets at the $30 price. Lunch features classic summertime favorites, like pulled pork sandwiches, veggie burgers, macaroni and cheese, and more. For Great Adventure, the price includes admission to both the park and Wild Safari. For Great Escape, the price includes admission to the theme park and Hurricane Habor water park. Children under 2 years of age are free. Events at both parks will take place rain or shine.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Another discount offered at both parks is special pricing on souvenir water bottles which allow for free soda and water refills throughout the park for the duration of the day. Members and retirees can also take advantage of special pricing on a 2024 Season Pass upgrade the day of the event only.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PEF MBP\u2019s Family and Friends Day events promise to deliver summer cheer and excitement for PEF members, retirees, family members, and friends<\/span>\u00be<\/span>at an affordable price.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to seeing as many members and retirees as we can, as well as the big smiles on the faces of all the children and teenagers,\u201d said McLean-Beathley.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To get your tickets while supplies last, call the PEF MBP office at (800) 767-1840 or (518) 785-1900, ext. 243, option 1.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
