Send A Weeki Wachi Mermaid A Letter And Get A Video Response Back
Looking for something to keep the kids busy in quarantine? Well, you’re in luck! You can have them spend some time crafting a letter to a Weeki Wachi mermaid. Once the mermaids receive the letter, they will reply via a video.
According to the Florida State Park Website:
“Have your child handwrite a letter to their favorite mermaid (or Prince), asking about the environment they swim in or anything else mermaid related.
- Visit our Mermaid roster for a list of our current mermaids.
Each child will receive an autographed picture of their favorite mermaid. The mermaids will read each letter, and their videoed response will get posted on our Facebook page and Twitter page — follow us today to see the latest images and news coming from the park!
Feel free to have your child include any drawings they may want to include. Please do not choose more than one mermaid or Prince to write to. Please be patient as we get numerous letters and it does take time to respond.”
Make sure to include the following in the letter:
- Name of the child
- Age of the child
- Email address or phone number in the event we need to contact you
All letters can be mailed to:
Weeki Wachee Springs State Park
Attn: “Tail Mail”
6131 Commercial Way
Weeki Wachee, FL 34606
