DORNEY PARK RIDES AND SLIDES ADVENTURE BRINGS SMILES TO MID-ATLANTIC KIDS WITH LIFE-THREATENING CONDITIONS



Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom hosted more than 1,000 A Kid Again kids, siblings, parents and caregivers for annual Adventure 

When your child has a life-threatening condition, moments of carefree fun become extra special. That’s why the nonprofit A Kid Again Mid-Atlantic was excited to host its annual Rides & Slides Adventure at Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom today, Saturday, June 15.

During the Adventure, A Kid Again kids and their immediate family members enjoyed  a cost-free day at the park, filled with rides, waterpark access, a special lunch, and accessible parking and rides.

A Kid Again thanks partners Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom and parent company Cedar Fair for making this Adventure possible through in-kind donations of tickets, parking and food.
