Drop off a four story cliff or spin around a giant 40 foot bowl until you’re sucked down by a vortex of water then shot into a rushing waterfall or relax and enjoy floating around the lazy lagoon. Enjoy the kiddie play area where there’s a smaller version of the big slides. Slide through a mole hole and pop out into a cool shallow pool. There’s plenty of rides and fun for all ages! Saturday night, after the slides close, party down with our own DJ. Sleep under the glistening stars. Or if you’ve got a busy summer schedule, enjoy the fun just on Sunday. What a great way to end the summer!

Volunteer Positions Needed: Adult Volunteers to help with check-in and a First Aider. Call Helen at (530) 343-1904 ext. 102.
