23 Days of Summer- Wapak Waterpark

HIGHlighting the HIGH dive

We are lucky to have such a wonderful waterpark so close to home. The Wapak Waterpark is located in Wapakoneta, Ohio. It has a very cool area just for kids with a zero entry area that moms can sit in and watch their kiddos while catching some rays.

Tonight our church rented it out from 6-8 p.m. The kids were looking forward to going. We've been there before, but not within the past two years. So when we had the opportunity to meet and mingle with some of our church family and swim, we jumped on the chance.

The waterpark is one of the largest in the area. It has two pools and a sand area. Within minutes of walking in Isaac saw all the big kids going off the high dive. He decided he needed to do it too. After getting in line, he walked out to the end and jumped. We were so proud of him for doing it and not being terrified. It's 12 feet deep so for him to do it was quiet the accomplishment. I remember when I was little going off the high-dive at the Bloomville pool and thinking I was going to die before I hit the water....then nearly did when I hit doing a belly smacker.

Olivia decided she'd stick to the kid splash zone area. I was surprised she didn't even want to do the water side. Especially after she did the slides at Maui Sands. Isaac, of course did the water slide and loved it. Two hours went by pretty quickly. Isaac went down the slides a million times and Olivia was ready to head home instead of watching him. All in all it was a super great time. Thank you Lima Community Church for providing such a fun evening!
