The history of waterworks park in Redding California is one of ups and downs of shaky beginnings and powerful surges with nearly as many twists and turns as a ride of one of it´s key attractions, the cork screw, and flume ride. However the park now enjoys a recent past of powerful new attractions and a great future with exciting expansions. The park opened on time and on budget in the spring of 1985.
Attractions
In 2000 we built what is now called The Avalanche, an extreme ride but safe for all ages. By 1995 we had known for sometime that tradition of a leisure river would expand our target group and create an activity for parents, grandparents, and grandkids for those who prefer less aggressive recreation. We also increased the much needed water play area in the park. The idea of creating a theme to Tropical Island with a river rounded as a center piece to the park has been burning for years. We had to do it in limited space. We visited a dozen parks and received incredible cooperation, helpful advice, and encouragement. Design incorporates two entry loading bases to enable all tubes to be loaded outside the rivers current. The base has been designed to accommodate handicap lifts that can be used with out struggling with the current. The Lazy Lagoon was finalized in 2003.
Future
The future looks bright with several expansions in the pipeline including drop slides, some enclosed flume rides, a wave pool, and a family entertainment center. The park is a major tourist destination for Northern California and especially Redding with over fifty percent of the parks day sales coming from tourists. The park is continuing to look at additional venues for the facility during the off season from Labor Day through Memorial Day. With several boat shows, RV shows, and other events to utilize its extensive parking.
