Share A Little SunshineShare A Little Sunshine is a Visit Florida compaign that work with Florida's colleges and universities to promote the great football we have in Florida and and to experience what a great place Florida is to visit. Florida is also a great place to live! Visit Florida's website encourages you to:
Invite someone to visit Florida,
and help our state's economy.
Tourism is Florida's No. 1 job producer.
The more people we share our state with,
the more our local economies benefit.

So, a friendly competition has been set up between 6 of Florida's schools to see which college or university can send out the most invitations. To send a invitation visit: http://www.visitflorida.com/share/. The people you invite will receive $25 off their Southwest Airlines flight to get to Florida. If you have family and friends that you have been wanting to visit Florida, now is your chance to save them money, promote your Florida school, and promote the State of Florida.

School - City - Name
University of South Florida (USF) - Tampa - Bulls
University of Miami (Miami) - Miami - Hurricanes (Canes)
University of Florida (Florida) - Gainesville - Gators
University of Central Florida (UCF) - Orlando+other locations in central Florida - Knights
Florida State University (FSU) - Tallahassee - Seminoles (Noles)
Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU) - Tallahassee - Rattlers

Here's the scoreboard as of right now, 9/18/11 11:02 a.m. Currently the Gators are in the lead. This is where I want to say "Come on 'Noles", but we all know that Florida is the winner regardless of the winner.

Barbara,

How creative!  I will be visiting your beautiful state in December but not near any of these areas.  I will be visiting my daughter in Pensacola and looking forward to it!

Barbara, I do love Florida, too!  I try to visit it, a few times a year.  Our winter months seem to be too long and taking a quick flight to Florida for some warm sunshine has always been part of our plan.  Hoping to have a 2nd home there, someday.  We love Disney, so, that is our main place to visit.

Faith - Thanks. I do think Visit Florida came up with a great promotion, too.

Bonnie - get your daughter to send you an invitation (clearing of throat--just have her pick Noles) and you should be able to get $25 off you next Southwest flight.

Frances - wait I have an idea---if I can find yours and Bonnie's e-mail I will invite you to Florida (yep, I will be selecting the Noles). And anyone else that wants $25 off Southwest Airlines.
