Patrick Rosevear, the director of public programs for the park, said the tower will have a climbing wall, multiple platforms for jumping into a giant inflatable airbag, an enclosed slide that launches kids into another inflatable airbag, a 150-foot tubing run and more.
“This is going to fill a void we’ve had for a while, and we’re excited about it because we want something that’s great for an adventurous thrill-seeker but also has elements for a more cautious kid, so everyone has a great time,” he says. “This is going to be the perfect way to get kids out of their comfort zone, but in a successful way.”
The adventure park will open for the season on Memorial Day Weekend, welcoming guests to its extreme indoor playground complete with an alpine slide, tubing, an extreme zipline and a freestyle zipline, three levels of ropes course, a drop tower, airbag jumps and scenic chairlifts.
From mid-June to Labor Day, the Flying Ace All-Stars will perform their renowned aerial show on Friday and Saturday nights. Ticket holders will marvel as current and past Olympians and U.S. National Team skiers and snowboarders perform acrobatic feats that launch them up to 60 feet in the air before they dive into the awaiting pool. In years past, these spectacular family-friendly shows have drawn audiences of over 1,000 spectators.
And if guests are feeling particularly adventurous and want to try the aerials themselves, the park has ski and snowboard freestyle pool lessons.
