The Gathering PlaceThis is a world class park which has been in planning and construction for several years. The $400,000,000 price tag appears to be well spent as you will see if you go to the FB page above. There is actually a music component as several national and regional- and maybe local- bands and acts are slated to play in the first 100 days the park is open and probably music will be part of the events there regularly as time goes on. This park has incorporated towers built in Germany, engineering from who knows where all, some massively cool slides, water features, and playgrounds, along with 3 separate restaurants. The park is on some 200 acres in the green space along the Arkansas River, and more is planned including an innovative foot bridge across the river to a new facility for education and fun. We caught a special on a local channel today and it's much more than we had anticipated. Just thought it was a cool place!
