Baby I am good! I am outside with my family with 12 kids and just 2 adults my Daughter and I, for my great nephew's birthday.🤩 A lot of the other children at the park were something else, the little ones just wanted to play and have lots of fun as they should. The teenagers though...the girls were ok today. But a few several boys were on that gangster stuff and some of them were not swimming and had on long jeans; weird. They picked the wrong ones in my family to mess with today, not knowing that we were 14 deep. Thank God that I am a praying Grandmother, mother, aunt and person. So I did just that, pray! Everything ended up ok, and almost everyone enjoyed a wonderful hot summer day at the park. Until it was just about time to close. The police had to be called, because a parent was threatening staff, because staff could not allow the parent to take a child too young down the big water slide. Mind you that minutes earlier the life guard had to jump in to rescue at least two children from drowning after coming down that same slide. I have to give the staff 5 stars, because they were all attentive, kind, interactive and on guard. Overall, maybe you should go there to support the community and encourage more places for families to have fun together. It was a very diverse representation of the community too, this was a welcoming sight. I plan to go there again, but not with as many children.

Very fun place to bring the kids. We only paid $10 because kids were free that day. Kids had a great time. Definitely will come back.
