I've not been here before. Coming for a day trip with extended family. Do people who are not swimming just picnicking have to pay also?

Hi Pam, thank you for your question! Yes, everyone entering the park must pay the daily admission fee. In addition to swimming, we also offer miniature golf, volleyball, basketball, cornhole and on weekends live music and family activities. Admission allows for all day, unlimitied access to all of these activities in addition to swimming. Yes, our gate opens at 9 am

If we arrive early to get a picnic table, someone is there to take our money?
