This is a rain or shine event, and we do require a responsible adult to attend. We will not allow for unaccompanied minors at this event.

When the land fun ends, the water play begins. The Autism Alliance of Barry County (AABC) and Uncivilized Vitality (UV) have the park reserved for most of the day, to include the beach. We will not be hosting any events at the water front, but it will be available to anyone to cool off an enjoy at the end of the event. Important items to note:

1. AABC & UV are not hosting an event in the water and assume no responsibility for those choosing to participate
2. There will be no life guards available, any water play is at your own risk.
3. The waterfront will be available for families to enjoy after 1pm, once the event has concluded.
