During the promotion period, participants who text the keyword “vacation” to 833-990-0950 will automatically be entered to win. A winner will be selected Aug. 1.

Wayback Burgers is famous for its milkshakes. Hand-dipped and crafted to order with Blue Bunny ice cream and milk, they are available in a variety of flavors, including a new Sour Patch Kids Shake, available for a limited time now through July 8.

“We cannot think of a better way to kick off summer than the indulgence of one of our hand-crafted milkshakes. Offering our chocolate shake for free is a perfect nod to the nostalgia that both summer and the Wayback brand brings to our guests,” said Patrick Conlin, president of Wayback Burgers. “We hope to have many folks take advantage of this fun opportunity. It also provides an occasion to enjoy one of our new menu items we are cooking up special for summer.”

Other food items joining the Wayback Burgers menu for this summer only include:

• Nashville Hot Chicken — Made with breaded chicken, tossed with Nashville Hot Sauce, and topped with pickles (available June 6– Sept. 9).

Five people were killed and another one was injured following a two-vehicle accident in McIntosh County on Sunday morning.

Witnesses told Georgia State Patrol Trooper Christopher Ashdown that a Jeep Cherokee was traveling south on Interstate 95 at a high rate of speed when it rear-ended an Infiniti. The Cherokee hit a guard rail, bursting into flames. The crash and ensuing fire killed one adult and four children.

The driver of the Jeep Cherokee has been identified a Reagan Dougan, 27. GSP troopers have learned she rented the vehicle in Raleigh, N.C., and was heading to Florida to meet her husband. The children were a 9-year-old boy, a 4-year-old boy, a 2-year-old girl and a 3-month-old boy.

Ashdown said the Cherokee was a rental and authorities are in the process of identifying the victims.  The driver of the Infiniti, from Long County, was transported to Southeast Regional Health System in Brunswick with non-life-threatening injuries.

The accident occurred at mile marker 62 around 6 a.m.
