Voting to name features of the Parrot Island Waterpark concludes at 11:59 p.m. on Friday (Jan. 23).
Each of the seven amenities in the contest has five choices – all of which were submitted by citizens during the first round of the contest.
Finalists whose names received the most votes during the open voting will be chosen as the official name for each of the designated attractions. Those who submitted the winning names will receive prize packages, to include individual season passes, and passes for the winner and immediate family members to attend the opening day festivities.
The seven amenities to be named are: wave pool; children’s play area; lazy river; yellow slide; purple slide; orange slide; and blue slide. (Link here to reach the online voting page.)
The $10.9 million facility – located in Ben Geren Regional Park – will include three bodies of water, a 500 foot lazy river and four water slides for a total footprint of more than 20,000 square feet. It is on track for a Memorial Day 2015 opening, and should be a larger facility than those recently opened in Rogers and Clarksville, Ark.
