Get A Sneak Peek At All That\’s New!
As you enter the park this spring, you\’ll get a preview of things to come.
During
the off-season our waterpark has been transformed into a much larger
attraction
with the addition of three huge new slides plus a children\’s splash pad.
Finishing
touches are being put on the project, but \”Splash Away Bay\” – our
waterpark formerly
known as \”Saturation Station\” – will be ready to open on May 25!

The huge expansion project means your 2013 season pass has more value than
ever
before! Don\’t have your season pass yet? Simply click here:

\’Quassy Quest\’ Laser Maze Awaits You
We have a new attraction in the arcade building in the heart of the park:
\”Quassy
Quest\” Laser Maze. This must-see amazing maze of laser beams is fun and
challenging
for all ages. Every mission is a race against the clock to see who can
dodge crisscrossing
lasers in a darkened chamber while the anxious crowd waiting outside
watches the
action on large screen televisions. The pay-as-you-play attraction is sure
to be
a hit!
