Teachers (and kids), we know that the end of the summer is a bummer but there is a way to make it a little bit better this week only! Six Flags Great Escape is offering free admission from now until August 30th for teachers and school district staff with qualifying identification. The even cooler thing is that you can get discounted admission just for donating a backpack and some school supplies! Here is how it works:

Six Flags Great Escape, Upstate New York’s premier destination to play, stay and get-away, is celebrating “Back to School Days” offering teachers, staff and school faculty free admission to The Great Escape from August 24-30.  In addition, all guests who bring a new backpack filled with school supplies will receive admission for half the price of an admission ticket.

You can get more information by calling Six Flags Great Escape at (518) 792-3500 or visit them online: https://www.sixflags.com/greatescape

Don't forget to help out kids in need right here in the Capital Region this Wednesday as we broadcast live from the Crossgates Mall and collect school supplies. This full list of what we are looking for and all the details you need are below!
