Unfortunately we are behind for the completion of our Aerial Park's lowest level due to our long winter and at the mercy of our contractor. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused families with smaller children. Please call our office if the age and size limitation has effected your entering the park and we will be happy to work something out. We are a family business who highly values our center being a great family experience! Comments are closed.
