BUENA PARK, CA (October 15, 2001) - Knott's Berry Farm continues
its tradition of honoring the brave men and women who have served in
the U.S. military, both past and present, with free admission during
its 12th annual Veterans' Tribute. This year Knott's Veterans'
Tribute takes place October 22 through November 22, a full two weeks
longer than last year.
"With many military personnel already deployed, and
deployment looming for many more military families, we decided to
begin our tribute earlier to offer these families a carefree,
fun-filled family outing," said Jack Falfas, Knott's General
Manager and Vice-President of West Coast Operations. "Military
families face many uncertainties and make many sacrifices, as they
always have. This tribute is well deserved."
Knott's continues to be the only theme park that has continuously
offered free admission to veterans and active military personnel in
honor of our nation's Veteran's Day holiday.
The free-admission offer applies to all U.S. veterans and active
military personnel and their spouse (or one guest) and up to two
dependant children ages 3-11. Military personnel may purchase
additional tickets at their local MWR ticket office. This offer is
valid October 22 - November 22, 2001 only.
U.S. veterans and active military personnel must present military
I.D. or proof of U.S. military service at Knott's ticket booths to
receive the complimentary tribute tickets. Veteran or active
military personnel must be present. (In case of deployment, Knott's
will honor military spouse ID with proof of deployment.)
More than one million veterans and current military personnel
have been honored with complimentary admission since the inception
of Knott's Veterans' Week tribute program in 1990.
For information on operating hours, please call Knott's
Information at (714) 220-5200 on the day you plan to visit. Please
note, promotional giveaways are not valid with complimentary
admission.
