That's why we're adding more water rides, so we can start expanding our hours. People won't have to worry about how hot it is, because they can come down here to get soaking wet and be cool. I also learn from other amusement parks, meeting with the owners, talking with them. In fact, a group of us meets every year to exchange ideas. It's kind of nice, because we all have about the same size parks.
Some owners come from as far away as the East and West coasts.
We spend about three days in one room, exchanging ideas, talking, brainstorming and going over problems we've had and how to solve them. That's really been a big help. Every so often I do. I try to make it a family trip, but usually what I try to do is go see parks that are our size, located in communities our size, to see what they're doing. Parks like Disneyland and Six Flags are in a completely different league from us.
