Mississippi Aquarium crew gifts hundreds of admission tickets around the community

GULFPORT, Miss. – Tuesday night at the MSAQ Holiday Party, each full-time Crew Member of Mississippi Aquarium was given four general admission tickets with the direction of spreading some holiday cheer around the community.

Tickets can be paid forward to the person behind them in line at a store, given to someone who hasn’t had the means to visit, provided to someone that is going through a tough time, or anyone else they think would enjoy the Mississippi Aquarium. It’s up to the Crew Members as to when and to who they distribute.

“Mississippi Aquarium is such a special place and we have so much to offer visitors from all over. Everyone should get the opportunity to visit and it’s so great to be able to share the gift of the Mississippi Aquarium with others who may not have had the opportunity to thus far,” said Nicole Martz, Mississippi Aquarium Crew Member.

“Community is one of our Three Pillars and a basis for all we do at Mississippi Aquarium. When we reflected on the successful year we had, we knew we wanted to find a way to give back to the community that has shown us so much support,” said Kurt Allen, Mississippi Aquarium President and CEO. “Our crew is excited to gift these general admission tickets and spread some holiday cheer.”
