KANSAS CITY, Mo. − Hundreds of guests lined up for Worlds of Fun’s opening day campout, and now, Oceans of Fun fans anticipating the park opening can count it down together at the water park's first ever overnight party! The all-nighters will be rewarded by the park with huge perks including $9.99 admission, a private ride session on the towering Hurricane Falls, entertainment from Mix 93.3, free food, prizes, and fun activities.
As the sun sets on Friday, May 21, the fun begins for anyone attending this free activity when the official line for the event begins to take shape. The park’s front gate area will be home to tents, sleeping bags, and blankets, but also to some great live entertainment, as Steve Serrano will broadcast ‘The Night Show’ on Mix 93.3, interacting with fans ready to countdown the hours until the park opens for 2010. Fans can sit back and relax as Oceans of Fun staff members will be on hand to provide the fun with prize drawings, snacks, and contests.
Throughout the night fans will anxiously be awaiting sunrise, as those that stay at the park are rewarded with something better than morning coffee to wake them up, a full hour of exclusive ride time (ERT) on Hurricane Falls before the park opens. Plus, during the ERT session, the park will provide a free breakfast at the slide. In addition, the first 250 campers registered will receive a wristband for free fountain drinks all Opening Day. Campers also pay less for fun on Opening Day, with discount admission for only $9.99, a savings of $19 off the normal gate price.
All campout activities are free although park admission or a Season Pass is required to enjoy the exclusive Opening Day festivities.
