Wings & Waves Waterpark

Thank you for the free admission on Memorial Day for veterans. My sons and I were able to take advantage of this generous offer and have a good first visit there. The lines do take awhile to get through, I think it was 35 min average depending on the slide, but it was a fun experience sliding down. The teens manning the slides probably could use more training on keeping the slides full to move the lines along faster. Other than that we will be back.

Indoor Waterpark w Fun Tubes but Long Lines. They could really improve the experience by having staffs' first priority, after safety, be getting people down as quickly as possible. Looked to me that the teen/ early 20 something staff were prioritizing something else much of the time or not really paying too much attention to prior riders exiting slide to get next riders in. We counted a range of 2:30 to :45 for riders cycling through Mach 1. Seems that at busiest parts of day it might make sense to have only double riders for Tailspin and Nosedive to alleviate crowding on stairs. Stairs are hot and stuffy while waiting in line. Mid-day on weekends you'll be air dry between runs. If not raining bring a picnic and eat outside.

Great fun! Go on a weekday to avoid any lines. Add in the museum and you get a full day of fun. NOTE they are anti camera there! I did care and used my GoPro when the Wife unit and I played on the double slides, I made sure I didn’t get any kids in the back ground. One of the young life guards said no one cares about cameras as long as they are not seen outside the slides or not pointed anywhere where children are in the background. I though this rule was very strange, I would be upset if someone was taking direct photos of my kids but who cares if they’re in the background! If you’re worried put your kid in a bubble as you hover around them.

This water park was fun and worth spending a day at. You have to be tall enough for some slides so check that before you go if your kids have their heart set on the big slides. There is fun stuff to do no matter how tall you are! The kid area is pretty cool. My five year old was scared of the giant bucket of water that dumps on a timer, but she still had fun.

The slides are enormous fun. Good place to take kids. However... you're not supposed to leave kids unattended, which might put a damper on some parents wanting to chill by the pool. Chilling isn't a realistic expectation anyway. The noise is horrendous. The lines for the water slides vary per ride. Some rides are going to have at least a 45 minute wait time (and that's if the line is only half way full).
