New Name For Thrillbillies Home: Mtn Dew Park

MARION, Ill. - The Black Diamond Family of Businesses announced Thursday that they have reached a new naming-rights agreement with Pepsi MidAmerica to rebrand Rent One Park as Mtn Dew Park.

"Lending your name to a venue is way more than just a financial commitment. It's a 24/7/365 pledge to the community. On behalf of the entire community, we say thank you to Rent One Home Furnishings Company," said Rodney Cabaness, Co-Owner of the Black Diamond of Family Businesses.

Shad Zimbro, Co-Owner of the Black Diamond of Family Businesses said, "Pepsi MidAmerica and the Black Diamond Family of Businesses have collaborated on hundreds of projects over the past 15 plus years, and we could not be happier about this latest collaboration. Mtn Dew is the ultimate beverage, and the perfect fit for the new Capital of Thrillville."

"You'd be hard-pressed to find a soda more thrilling than Mtn Dew," explains Herby Voss, Marketing Specialist for the Black Diamond Family of Businesses. "It's kinetic. It's raw. It's daring. Guzzled by risk-takers, daredevils and mavericks who break rules and land on their feet no matter what hurdles they face."

In addition to the announcement about the new naming-rights agreement, leaders with the Black Diamond of Family of Businesses discussed plans for Thrillville which includes transforming the park itself into the "Capital of Thrillville."

"The park is a fantastic facility, and we are so blessed to have it, but it's pretty darn grey! We plan to transform Mtn Dew Park into a vibrant city-within-a-city," said Ralph Santana, Head Coach of the Thrillbillies.

Future plans for Thrillville include the major addition of Oasis Golf, a premier, golf themed entertainment venue with games for all skill levels, a full-service bar and restaurant, pickle ball, a mini golf course and hotel. Thrillville will also be home to the Oasis Sports Complex, a national sports tourism destination. Planning is underway for a new shopping destination in Thrillville, Oasis South Shopping Center.
