Red Moon Marketing Launches ‘Project White Beach’ to Attract Tourists to Alabama Beaches

(BUSINESS WIRE)--Red Moon Marketing, Coca-Cola Consolidated and Circle K have joined forces to launch Project White Beach – a massive consumer promotion designed to attract visitors back to the Alabama Gulf Shore.

As part of Project White Beach, over the next two months more than 100,000 discount booklets will be distributed in Circle K stores throughout Louisiana, Tennessee and Alabama giving significant discounts from Gulf Shores and Orange Beach accommodations, restaurants and attractions.

In addition, a number of lucky families will win a fantastic all-expenses paid vacation package to the Alabama Gulf Coast as part of the ‘Enjoy the Gulf Coast’ sweepstakes. Eight grand prize winners will be awarded with a five-night stay on the beach, golf, beach portrait session, charter fishing trip, gift certificates to local restaurants and tickets to area attractions like the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo, USS Alabama and much more!

No purchase is necessary to win and consumers can enter by going to the Gulf Shores & Orange Beach Tourism’s website, www.EnjoytheGulfCoast.com. The promotion is expected to help jumpstart the 2011 summer tourist season.

Project White Beach officially kicked off with a press conference held April 4, 2011 that was covered by local, regional and national media outlets.

“The 2010 Gulf Coast oil spill devastated the entire Gulf region’s tourism industry and Red Moon was excited to help get the word out that the Gulf area beaches are back to their natural condition and open for business,” said Jim Bailey, President/CEO of Red Moon Marketing. “Initiatives such as Project White Beach are Red Moon’s sweet spot and allow us to use our creative and promotional talents to make a difference. Many thanks to the entire Red Moon team for its hard work ensuring a successful launch for Project White Beach.”

“Red Moon Marketing makes major events like Project White Beach easy. This team of marketing experts handles everything, from planning to creative to execution,” said Lauren Steele, Vice President Corporate Affairs, Coca-Cola Bottling Company. “The best thing about working with Red Moon is the dedicated and hard working staff--and they are a joy to work with.”

Callaway Gardens® Announces Two Dates for Mystery Dinner Theaters in 2011

Building on the sell-out Mystery Dinner Theater in 2010, this year Callaway Gardens is offering two evenings of fun and entertainment, one in May and one in October.

For those who have been missing the fun, a Mystery Dinner Theater includes a little detective work while you dine on delicious cuisine from the Callaway Gardens culinary team led by Executive Chef Joe Malone. Both evenings of mystery will include opportunities for guests to interact with the cast. Before the shows, guests selected just before the show will receive reading parts and will be cued to deliver their award winning performances. Expect a few surprises and activities to add to the fun, and solving the mystery comes with token prizes for the winning team.

“Showdown at Northspoon”

On Saturday, May 21, 2011, guests are invited to join the Sheepling siblings as they learn who will inherit the family ranch, Northspoon. Who successfully met the goal set forth by their deceased relative for the big inheritance? As the deadline nears, there is more drama on the ranch as the moment of truth approaches. Can you figure out “whodunit” before dessert is served?

Would you like some “Scream” with that?
Add a little scare to your October as Halloween approaches. Bring your detective skills and appetite on Friday, October 21, 2011, for a Halloween/Vampire-themed Mystery Dinner Theater. Those not faint of heart will put their own powers of aura perception to the test while interacting with those from days gone by.

Vision Airlines Heats Up Summer with Sizzling $59* Florida Fares

/PRNewswire/ -- Vision Airlines announces a $59* Sizzling Summer Seat Sale just in time for family vacations. Beginning Monday, April 11 , 2011 and ending Sunday, April 24, 2011 at 11:59 pm eastern time, passengers can purchase these great $59* fares to and from many of their favorite Florida vacation spots. Passengers must complete travel by June 15, 2011. Vision Airlines services 11 states in the Southeast with non-stop flights to and from NW Florida Regional Airport, located at Destin/Ft Walton Beach.

Vision Airlines' specially-priced, limited $59* one-way fares are also available on flights from NW Florida Regional to Orlando/Sanford International Airport, Punta Gorda/Fort Myers Airport and St. Petersburg/Clearwater International Airport.

Passengers that fly the Louisville and Fort Lauderdale routes will also be able to take advantage of this fantastic rate.

"Since our successful launch of service from Northwest Florida Regional Airport, we've heard from many of our customers about our great low fares. This two-week sale will give our passengers the opportunity to visit Florida more frequently and allow them to beat high gas prices at the pump. Driving 7-10 hours for a family can be expensive and difficult. Our low fares enable families to take a short, non-stop flight to their vacation destination," says David Meers, Chief Operating Officer of Vision Airlines.

The $59* one- way fares apply to flights that take-off the morning of April 11, 2011 through June 15, 2011. There is a limited number of $59* fares on each flight. The sale ends on Sunday, April 24, 2011 at 11:59 PM (ET).

FAMILIES CELEBRATE THE LONG BEACH WEEKEND AND THEIR SAVINGS

Summer camps and athletics often leave families with only a few days to get away. With Vision Airlines $59* fares and great discount vacation packages, there's no need to endure a lengthy carpool that consumes half of the vacation. Families can now get away for a long weekend and enjoy all their favorite beach activities without having to spend a ton of cash. On average, Vision Airlines' normal one-way fares to Florida are $89 - $109.

VISION AIRLINES EYES NEW DESTINATIONS AND ROUTES

Vision Airlines is flying to some of the most popular leisure destinations in Florida. Numerous communities have contacted Vision Airlines about providing service to these great Florida vacation spots. Many of these communities have been underserved by the major carriers and travelers have found it difficult to fly to their favorite vacation destinations.

"Vision Airlines business model is to be a leisure destination airline and travel company, offering the lowest prices and best values on vacation packages throughout the U.S., Caribbean, and Mexico," according to Meers.

Vision Airlines plans to announce additional routes and destinations later this month.
