Visiting a water park is a favorite American pastime during the long, hot summer. According to the World Waterpark Association, there are approximately 950 such attractions throughout the United States. These water parks average over 40 million guests per year, and their popularity is increasing.
Water parks pose certain dangers to their visitors.
Drowning should be the number one concern for both park patrons and management. Children should be closely supervised. Unfortunately, such is not always the case, and the results can be tragic.
See a doctor if you have been injured at a waterpark. In addition, it may be important to
contact an attorney who can help you protect your legal rights. Please keep in mind that there may be
time limits within which you must commence suit.
