Six Flags Great Adventure - Shoot Stuff

Girls' Life, Dec, 2002

Do you have a real-life hero? Someone who motivates and inspires you? Put it into words, and your family could be headed for a New York City or Washington, D.C., vacation. Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, N.J., is holding the Search for Heroes essay contest to celebrate the opening of its Superman-Ultimate Flight roller coaster, which could make Lois Lane's hair stand on end.

The three-minute, 2,759-foot surge of 60-mph speed glides you face-down along a nearly invisible track, so it's the closest thing to flying this side of The Fortress of Solitude. To enter the contest, make like Clark Kent and type up a 500-word essay. A panel that includes LMNT will judge the entries. Go to www.sixflags.com for complete contest rules.
