Hurricane Bay, the water park, opens May 29.
After the park s last season brought a delayed opening, lower attendance and closed attractions due to the coronavirus pandemic, as well as changing ownership in February, this season will bring about a few changes.
Here s what to look forward to:
What COVID-19 protocols are being put in place?

As vaccinations continue and coronavirus rates in Kentucky plateau, Gov. Andy Beshear is relaxing the commonwealth s mask mandate.
Masks will no longer be required at outdoor events that draw fewer than 1,000 people, the governor announced at Monday s press briefing.
Masks, which help slow the spread of the coronavirus, will still be required at indoor public facilities, Beshear said, as well as at outdoor events that draw crowds in the thousands such as Monday s Racing Louisville FC soccer game, which Beshear said would be the first sporting event he s attended since the start of the pandemic, and this weekend s Kentucky Derby.
Almost two weeks after Gov. Andy Beshear halted Kentucky s use of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine over rare blood clot reports, the state can resume use of the single-dose shot, Public Health Commissioner Dr. Steven Stack said Monday.
During an afternoon press conference, Stack said vaccination sites are now allowed, right away, to to able to use J & J for anyone 18 and older.
Also Monday, Beshear announced Kentucky will no longer require masks for outdoor events of 1,000 people or less.
Masks are still required indoors when around people not in one s household such as at a grocery store or other business and at outdoor events attracting more than 1,000 people.
