Water park for a winter town

Rexburg, ID – For the city of Rexburg snow isn’t just a four-letter word it’s almost an 8-month way of life. Then why might you ask are they building a new outdoor swim park when it’s been heard that on record it’s snowed everyday of the year in this city.

The city of Rexburg is building a water park that will include among many things a lazy river and water slide. It has been rainy and cold keeping the construction from moving as fast as it can for it’s opening date Memorial Day May 30.

Actually the facility never opened on Memorial Day because of the weather delays. So if they can’t even get the park open in time because of the weather what will that say about who will go to it or even how many days out of the year it’ll be open due to the cold or rain.

Rexburg is a college town, believe it or not, and in the dead of winter there are over 12,000 students with nothing to do but sit in their apartments and try to keep off the frostbite. So wouldn’t it make more sense to build this water park indoors so this way it can make more money and everyone in town will have something fun to do in the wintertime?

This is just one student’s point of view so don’t take my word for.
