Great Wolf Lodge Grapevine guest Elizabeth Iselin from Heath, Texas Receives 50 millionth guest distinction
GRAPEVINE, Texas (Jan. 23, 2020) – Elizabeth Iselin and son Eli from Heath, Texas. received a howling surprise this afternoon as they were recognized by Great Wolf Lodge as the brand’s 50 millionth guest. In honor of this milestone, Great Wolf Lodged enhanced the Iselin family’s stay and provided a unique endowment of 50 one-night stay vouchers with special instructions to share the overnight experience with deserving individuals, families or organizations within their community.
“My son loves coming to Great Wolf Lodge, and this was such a surprise,” said Iselin. “We’re incredibly grateful and look forward to spreading the joy to 50 other families.” Iselin works at Children’s Medical Center Dallas and Our Children’s House Dallas.
The vouchers awarded to Iselin further Great Wolf Lodge’s philanthropic philosophy and overall company purpose of bringing joy to families. The Iselin family can gift the vouchers to individuals or organizations that are doing great things in their community. It could be a teacher, first responder, military family, or recognition for an individual’s efforts to make their community a better place.
To issue one of the allotted vouchers, the Iselin family will submit a brief one-to-two sentence overview explaining why the particular individual or family was selected to receive an overnight experience at Great Wolf Lodge. Great Wolf Lodge will issue the overnight voucher directly to the deserving individual or family, with a note thanking them for their support for the community. If Iselin is unable to distribute all 50 vouchers, Great Wolf Lodge can assist by gifting a portion of the vouchers to children and family focused charities that the resort routinely supports.
