Today was the first day of advance sales for Cypress Gardens Adventure Park annual passes. I swung by with the family to pick up a few. Demand was high! At one point the line was estimated to be almost 2 hours long.
Alyson Gernert, Public Relations Manager, said new park owner Kent Buescher was excited about the turnout. Alyson added that advance sales of the Annual Passes, priced at $64.95, would continue on Monday thru Friday from 10 am till 5 pm at the Gardens.
Winter Haven Area Chamber of Commerce executive director Bob Gernert estimated that over 5000 people had come by 12:30 pm. Advance sales started at 10 am this morning. Gernert noted that the chamber had sold 550 passes from Wednesday thru Friday at the chamber, so he knew demand would be high.
Soft opening of the new Cypress Gardens will take place on November 19. The grand reopening will take place on December 9.
