About Our VIP Program

Through our VIP Program, The Thompson's Company supports some of America's most unique and naturally beautiful parks, including Yellowstone National Park, Glacier National Park and Niagara Falls State Park. Thompson's® Water Seal® waterproofers and stains protect wood surfaces throughout these great parks, demonstrating the brand's guarantee of protecting exterior wood from water damage.

See It In Person

Now we'd like to give you the chance to experience one of these breathtaking locations in person. Best of all, if you win, you get to choose the location you'd most like to visit. You could stand on the Cave of the Winds Decks just 15 feet from the base of Niagara Falls. You could marvel at the amazing geysers and other natural water features at Yellowstone National Park. Or see actual glaciers and some of Mother Nature's finest scenery at Glacier National Park.

How To Enter And Win The Prize!

Just take part in our quick and easy virtual deck makeover game. It lets you choose a park background for your deck makeover, and includes entertaining and informative trivia questions. (You don't have to answer the questions correctly to participate. Everybody gets to fill-out the entry form when the deck is “finished.”) The trip is valued at $5,500 and includes airfare for four people, a four-night hotel stay, rental car, $1,000 spending money – and at each location, a special "VIP" event for our winner that is not available to the general public!

  • Yellowstone National Park – VIP walking tour and lunch at the 100-plus-year-old Old Faithful Inn, which is on the National Register of Historic Places and is one of the few remaining log hotels in the U.S. It also is adjacent to the Park's most well-known attraction, the Old Faithful Geyser. This tour includes access to parts of the hotel not open to the public.
  • Glacier National Park – VIP tour of the Park's Greenhouse, led by the Director, who will explain their leading-edge work in helping grow and re-introduce native plants for Parks and highway projects around the country.
