Mandy Sybrandy is the Vice President of Attractions for SkyWheel, with locations in Myrtle Beach, SC, and Panama City Beach, FL. SkyWheel operates observation wheels, and don’t call them Ferris wheels, because the experience is entirely different. SkyWheel is a type of attraction that can serve an entire family, from a newborn baby to a 100-year old grandmother, and the memorable aspects of the experience go beyond the wheel themselves. Mandy talks about how SkyWheel can serve as the location for marriage proposals, weddings, and even for gender reveals. The moments that Mandy shares as being some of her favorite stories to tell include the milestone life moments that guests have when they visit, and she also shares emotional and sentimental experiences that guests have had, making the attraction much more than a quick visit or a day out. Mandy also shares how her team is encouraged to visit other attractions and gain inspiration for how to make the SkyWheel experience even better, and why having fun is not only a job requirement, but also Mandy’s guest experience and life philosophy.
