Plato’s Path: August 2019

Where will Plato go next? It’s up to you! Take Plato along on your trek across the globe. Snap a picture with Plato on a nature trail, at the top of a mountain or working on his tan at the beach. Send us your photos for a chance to be featured!

Thankfully, dinosaurs don’t need passports. To take Plato along for the ride, download and print your own Plato or find a paper Plato in your Publix Communication Center. Then, snap a pic and send it to corporate.communications@publix.com. Be sure to include your name, work location and photo caption.

Week 5

13

All aboard! Engine No. 60 may have been forgotten in the 1930s with the close of the railroad, but locals — and tourists like Plato — can still visit it behind City Hall in Idaho Springs, Colorado.

14

Let’s go, Bucs! Plato attended a preseason Tampa Bay Buccaneers football game in Tampa, Florida.

15

First in flight! Plato visited the Wright Brothers National Memorial in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina, which commemorates the Wright brothers’ first airplane flights on Dec. 17, 1903.

Week 4

10

It wouldn’t be a visit to the Centennial State without a trip to one of the major transportation hubs! Plato checked out Union Station in Denver, Colorado.

11

Just don’t drop him down that waterfall! Plato enjoyed a visit to Niagara Falls, New York, and Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada.

Plato cheered on the Nashville Predators as they beat the Washington Capitals in Nashville, Tennessee. He was inspired to start his own hockey team — the Dino Dominators!

Week 3

7

Oops — he may have swallowed a pearl! Plato treated himself to oysters while visiting the coast in St. Augustine, Florida.

8

Sometimes Plato wishes he had a long neck like his cousin, the Camarasaurus. He wanted to stick his head in the clouds while visiting Mountain in Peru!

9

Even dinosaurs don’t get to vacation all the time. Plato got to work helping associates at the Jacksonville warehouse in Jacksonville, Florida.

Week 2

Plato sure does love to travel — by planes, trains and automobiles. The Publixaurus traveled the Alaska Railroad. Plato took a ride on the Denali Star from Denali to Fairbanks.

Back to school is one of Plato’s favorite times of the year! Students visited Plato at #734, Venice, Florida.

6

This dinosaur knows how to work hard and play hard! Plato checked out operations at the produce warehouse in Lakeland, Florida.

Week 1

Who says you need opposable thumbs to drive? Plato steered his way to fun while on a side-by-side all-terrain vehicle at Denali National Park in Alaska.

They’re nailing this pose! Plato headed to Manaoag, Pangasinan, Philippines, where he took a photo with Jollibee, the mascot for the fast-food restaurant of the same name.

3

Plato’s favorite color might be Publix green, but he loved the blue water of the beaches at Dasol, Pangasinan, Philippines.


See where else Plato’s Path takes him!
