New inflatable water toys making waves at district pools
07/05/2012
The new splash pad at Conestoga isn’t the only exciting news at THPRD pools.
Our swim centers now boast a pair of new inflatable aquatic toys – The Aqua Challenge and The Aviator – which are making the rounds on a rotating schedule.
Think of them as floating inflatable bouncy houses, designed to add some fun, activity and excitement to open swim sessions.
The Aqua Challenge measures nearly 40 feet long, 6 feet wide and more than 7 feet high at its apex. It can support kids of all sizes, supporting up to 400 pounds. The “challenge” is staying on the device, which requires some concentration to navigate … or get ready for a plunge into the water below.
The Aviator is a smaller water challenge for our younger guests. It was designed specifically for kids age 6 and younger.
Look for the new toys at our aquatic centers year-round.
