March 16, 2009

ATLANTA — Planet Smoothie has announced its second annual partnership with Aquatica, SeaWorld's one-of-a-kind waterpark.

The highlight of this year's collaboration is the "Splash of Fun" Sweepstakes, including a grand prize getaway to Aquatica and SeaWorld for a family of four. The grand prize includes admission to both parks, hotel stay for three days and two nights, a private cabana at Aquatica, Banana Beach Cookout meal vouchers, a behind-the-scenes animal interaction at SeaWorld and an Aquatica gift bag. Other prizes include Aquatica and SeaWorld combo packs for two and Aquatica gift bags. Customers may register for a chance to win at any participating Planet Smoothie location through May 15.

Back by popular demand, Planet Smoothie's culinary team and Aquatica are reintroducing customized flavored smoothies to celebrate the park's South Seas inspiration. "Papa" the spoonbill, "Roa" the Kiwi bird, and "Ihu" the gecko symbolize the playful, carefree nature of Aquatica. The animal characters are derived from New Zealand's Maori culture.
