Let’s meet up, explore this amazing park together, and have fun with awesome people while trying all the crazy slides, relaxing in the lazy river, and making some great memories along the way.
📅 Expected Timeline:
☕ 1 — 09:00 AM
We’ll meet up at a café near the park where we can sit, chat a little, and get to know each other until everyone gathers.
(Location will be updated soon)
🌊 2 — Around 10:00 AM until \~4:00 PM
We’ll head into the park and start discovering the slides together!
Between rides, we can relax in the lazy river or take breaks whenever needed. Once we finish exploring the main attractions, you’re free to repeat your favorite slides, chill, split into smaller groups, or explore at your own pace.
The goal is simply to have fun and enjoy the day together.
🍔 3 — After the Park
Depending on the general mood and energy levels, we might grab lunch or hang out somewhere afterward.

• You’ll need to buy your ticket beforehand, either from the official website or another distributor. Prices usually range from \~230 to \~300 SAR, depending on where you buy from.
• Bring appropriate swimwear/swim gear.
• A waterproof phone case is highly recommended.
• Try not to eat too much for breakfast unless you want the slides to test your stomach 😅

In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them.
Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "by chance".
Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you.
The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life.
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life.
Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there.
This group is created by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.
