VALDOSTA – Wild Adventures Theme Park is ringing in the New Year with a celebration aimed at bringing families together without keeping them up too late.

“Our new Family First Night event provides families with all the fun and excitement of a big New Year’s Eve celebration, including great food, party favors and reserved VIP seating for a spectacular fireworks display,” said Patrick Pearson, director of sales and marketing.

The event begins noon Friday, Dec. 31, park representatives said in a statement. Participating families can pick up their celebration packets, which will include noisemakers and other party supplies, as well as a voucher for a free 5-by-7 photo, at The Clubhouse.

“After spending the afternoon enjoying our rides, shows and animal attractions our Family First Night guests get access to an All-You-Can-Eat New Year’s feast with pot roast, chicken tenders, mashed potatoes, ice cream and more, including unlimited soda,” Pearson said.

The Family First Night feast begins 6:30 p.m. at The Clubhouse, followed by a fireworks display at 8 p.m., with reserved seating available around the lake in the park’s center.
