An Evening at Sea World (tickets

On Thursday evening, June 19, attendees and their guests will have the
opportunity to enjoy a special evening at Sea World. Summertime at Sea
World has a magic all it's own as they enter the park into the Nautilus
Pavilion where a spectacular dinner awaits. Following dinner, participants
will be able to visit the over 20 shows, exhibits and attractions including
Wild Arctic featuring Polar bears and a simulated helicopter adventure;
ride the rapids at Shipwreck; get as close as possible to sharks without
getting wet; experience a pirate adventure and Mystique de la Mer; plus
much more! Sea World will be open to the general public by this time in
June, so all the attractions will be open and available to all attendees,
who will have the freedom to move from attraction to attraction at their
own pace. And of course, no visit to Sea World would be complete without
seeing the exciting Shamu Show. Don't miss this opportunity to see the
orcas perform amazing feats on their own and with their trainers. After
an evening of taking in the attractions, participants will reunite in
the pavilion for coffee and dessert before boarding the coaches for the
return trip to the resort.
