MYRTLE BEACH, SC -- The Myrtle Beach Pelicans added two new features to Coastal Federal Field in time for the beginning of the 2000 season. Seacor Inc.'s Quality Pools & Spas is the sponsor of the "Splash Tub Area." A 6-seater Hot Springs square hard hot tub sits in Lower Field Box number 4 located down the third base line adjacent to the playing field.

The "Splash Tub Area" features wait staff food and beverage service. In addition to the hot tub, patio furniture will add to the comfort of watching the Pelicans games from this unique aspect. The "Splash Tub Area" is available for groups of eight people for $120 per game. Group Sales Manager Jennifer Violand can be contacted at 843-918-6020 for more info or to reserve the "Splash Tub Area." Fans must bring their own towels.

Seacor, Inc. opened its fifth location at The Plaza at Carolina Forest in March 2000. This 4000 square foot showroom includes the Hot Spring, Tiger River and Softub lines of Spas, a pool design area, a complete line of chemicals and related pool/spa services, Hatteras Hammocks as well as gifts for the home.

Quote Bill Seay, Seacor, Inc.'s President and Owner… "Our relationship with the Myrtle Beach Pelicans is another example of our commitment to quality products and services. The Pelicans are a class organization with a commitment to the total satisfaction of their customer. We have the same commitment to our customer - before, during and after their visit to one of our locations."

Matt Harris, Pelicans Director of Corporate Sales/Assistant GM… "We're very pleased to be teamed up with Quality Pools & Spas to provide a hot tub area at the ballpark for our fans. This area will not only be fun place to be but it will also provide fans an up close and special viewing point to watch a ballgame as well as another unique seating option."

Another new feature at Coastal Federal Field allows fans to enjoy a new viewing area. It's called the "Tequiza Terrace" and it's located next to the grassy hill down the third base line. The "Tequiza Terrace" is a three-tiered patio deck. On select nights throughout the season, there will be special promotions including T-shirt giveaways and Tequiza sampling in the "Tequiza Terrace." The grassy hill will feature a party tent in which Anheuser-Busch products including Tequiza Extra will be served. Admission to the "Tequiza Terrace" and grassy hill area is general admission ($3).

Quote Mike Riley, General Manager of Better Brands, Inc.… "We feel that the Tequiza Terrace gives us a great opportunity to get us more involved at the ballpark and bring an enhanced festive atmosphere to the ballpark. The new brand, Tequiza Extra, in conjunction with the Tequiza brand that came out last year was the number one brand introduction in 1999. This is a line extension that allows us to continue with that momentum and with the momentum of the ball club. It's two great products put together. We look forward to having fun at the ballpark."
