Record-Breaking Fun

Get your bathing suits out of storage ... It may have snowed just mere days ago, but Great Wolf Lodge is revved up and ready to ring in spring.

This Friday and Saturday (March 26-27) Great Wolf Lodge in Grapevine will host a Waterslide-A-Thon benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters from 5pm Fri-4:59pm Sat. The Waterslide-A-Thon is open to the public from 10pm Fri-9am Sat. You and your family can take as many trips down the slide for a mere $5 per person sans hotel stay. While you won't have full access to the park, visitors will be able to slide down the River Canyon Run as many times as desired. Each trip down the slide (for kids 42 inches and taller) counts toward the Great Wolf Lodge's aspiration of breaking the Guinness World Record for "Longest Distance Water Sliding in 24 Hours." Additionally, the water park will boast live entertainment, games and prizes throughout the night.

And, what's better is that this event doesn't have limited tickets like the last benefit hosted by Great Wolf Lodge (which we blogged about here). Unlimited passes are available and open to the public; pick up your tickets upon arrival (they cannot be purchased in advance).
