Title: Warning re Water Park
Post by: jerron on October 22, 2010, 10:20:09 AM
My family and I visited the waterpark in Ovacik last week and I would like to warn people that they did not have any lifeguards patrolling and watching what was going on. My son saw two separate incidents of kiddies almost drowning on the same day and saved them.  The first indicident was on the bath plug ride where the boy shot out of the bottom into the water and couldn't get out of the water.  The second was a little lad riding on a blow up crocodile, and fell off and was underneath the water struggling to get out.  So all parent please be extra vigilent when you take your kiddies to these places.

Hi ive been to this place & go each year - the lifeguards are about at times - but they have a habit of disappearing. It can get busy & so extra cuation is required in watching the kids...

I think, maybe only Think, If the pool is 1.2 meters or less then you don't need a life gard. This is EU not just Turkey

The floors are extremely slippy around the slides as well. I fell on my arse a couple of times, and so did the kids. It's a fun day out, but vigilance is an absolute must!

My Grandson cut his chin in the summer,at the water park,my daughter went to ask if there was a first aid person and was given a plaster.What good is a plaster when a cut needs 6 stitches.
