Six Flags Over Georgia Promises More Value... More Monsters... More Flags... More Fun

T2F Note: Such wonderful memories of family fun have been made over the years at Georgia's own Six Flags. Why not make some more as Six Flags Over Georgia officially is the recipient of the Fayette Front Page Day Tripper Award.

/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Six Flags Over Georgia, the Southeast's largest regional theme park, announces the start of its longest season ever with unprecedented pricing, new shows, and a monster of a makeover. For the first time in its 42-year history, Six Flags Over Georgia is opening in the month of February. To mark the occasion, the park is hosting the Six Flags Friends Blanket Drive, allowing guests the opportunity to donate a new or gently used blanket and receive 50 percent off main gate general admission during opening weekend. All blankets will be donated to the United Way of Metropolitan Atlanta's Regional Commission on Homelessness.

As part of the extended season long celebration, Six Flags Over Georgia will offer a line-up of new shows and attractions that provide top-tier entertainment as well as guest benefits that ensure a value-packed experience for the entire family. Some of the major headlines this season include:
