We had a great day, but the pocket book sure did feel it. I was able to get tickets on Ebay for the kids to get in. They were $10 a piece. I also found coupons for $20 off adults. So, It was under $100 for us to get in. I thought that was good. Parking was $15. We went on a few rides and then went to the water park. I would not recommend renting a tube as you can do all of the slides and river without them. It was a pain trying to keep track of the tube. The double tube was $13 and we paid $2 more for another band so both of the kids could ride in it. We bought a beer and a coke there and it was $11! We did end up buying a cup that you could refill for $1.00, so that made the pop cheaper for the day!
The food was not incredibly out of line, but it was not really cheap either. Many people brought in coolers with food and drinks, but that looked like a pain also.
Around 3:00 a storm came through and cooled the park down and some people left, so the lines at the park were not bad. They had some great free shows if you hit them at the right time and a small fireworks display at 9:00.
So, I would bet we spent around $200-$250 for the day, but everyone had a lot of fun. Watch for coupons and have a fun day!
