Jonesboro, AR – (JonesboroRightNow.com) – Aug 1, 2024 – Make-A-Wish Mid-South is thrilled to announce that four-year-old Luke Kent from Jonesboro will have his heartfelt wish granted – an unforgettable family vacation to Key West, Florida. Thanks to the generosity of Jordan’s Convenience Stores and their customers, Luke and his family will embark on an adventure filled with excitement, wonder, and cherished memories.
Luke’s trip begins with a visit to the Key West Aquarium, where he’ll encounter fascinating marine life up close. The family will then explore the natural beauty of Dry Tortugas National Park, known for its pristine waters and historic sites. One of the highlights of the trip is a VIP tour at The Turtle Hospital, a fully functioning veterinary hospital dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and releasing sea turtles in the Florida Keys.
The adventure doesn’t stop there! The Kent family will set sail on a magical sunset cruise aboard the Schooner Jolly II Rover, a pirate ship. Luke will also have the chance to let his inner pirate shine as the Rover crew engages in a thrilling cannon fire exchange with a rival ship. It’s an experience that promises to be as educational as it is entertaining.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation is dedicated to granting the wishes of children with critical illnesses, providing them with hope, strength, and joy. Luke’s upcoming adventure is a testament to the power of a community coming together to make a child’s dream come true.
